ABA Work

 So I work in the ABA industry. For those of you who do not know what that means, it stands for Applied Behavioral Analysis. I am a Registered Behavior Technician, and I work with autistic children. I love what I do, and the children are so smart and sweet. But sometimes I feel like the RBTs' work goes unnoticed. A lot of the time, we deal with a BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) who doesn't really care. They create the programs that we implement, but we may suggest things to the BCBA, and while they say they'll look into it, they won't. Or they just do not care enough to. The company I work for, I really like, but of course, with all jobs, there are the pros and cons. Pro: more work opportunities; Con: Managers don't really listen to what you are saying and want more of a "yes man" instead of an RBT who will do what is necessary to make sure the client is taken care of.

Today

 Today was not so much fun. I spent the whole day at home in my apartment watching movies and sleeping. I woke up feeling like I was going to vom and I did. So I had to call off work because I was sick. And I've just felt like crap all day. It sucks. I thought of playing video games, but I did not because it would've hurt my head even more. But I was able to watch more of this really good show,  The Mentalist. It's a really good show and funny in some areas. A good watch on a sick day.

MARCUS Update 2

I want to say that things are going pretty well with updating my book. Going in and adding things, along with taking things away, is a really good thing. I've come to notice that I'm thinking of new content to bring to the pages and making it larger. I want to make things more grounded. I gave Marcus an actual home. Well, a big house for him to sleep in. Instead of placing his residence in a high-rise in downtown Columbus, I decided to make it more rural. Still close to Columbus, Ohio, but I have his residence in rural Pickerington. 

Editing

 I decided I wanted to get into editing. I know I can be really good at it. The only thing is trying to find clients. If you follow me, please spread the word.
