Sent in my "referral" (application?) for ovr services finally.
I only put down autism in the disability section, but i do think there's some kind of anxiety problem working against me too. Just ... not clear what, so i didn't wanna put it down.
I *know* I'm autistic, but anything else is a little... [waves hand].
The confirmation screen said I should hear back within 10 days. Well, that's scary, too...
I don't know if I actually will though. We'll find out.
#100% секретный дневник левы НЕ ЧИТАЙ#actuallyautistic#vocational rehab#(i've never been officially diagnosed with anything so i'm not sure how that's gonna be handled)#but. becoming REAL clear that whatever else is wrong with me is only getting worse#don't wanna go anywhere - don't wanna see relative who i don't like so much - can't answer unknown (job) phone calls - also can't job text#never know what i'm supposed to do!!! what's gonna happen!!!!!!#don't like to talk so much but to be fair that's been like that for ... 2 years i think now. just stopped forcing it#bcause i had to put myself out there to learn how to be social in the first place... and i wanted to. so i did#not perfectly and i guess not much better than now but. idk.#if i could do anything it really would be about what i'm doing right now (but less stressed & more purpose)#like. actually being able to go out busking. i wanna but driving = use gas + no money; can't spend it(!!!) = wuoh fuck i can't leave house#so i'm not sure what i want out of vr other than. job i can do and get hired at#not very good on interviews or even setting them up. so. idk#networking would theoretically be able to solve this problem but i have no network to ing#(and i don't like(?) talking to people)

Eesh... just a little tiny bit longer & i'm free to slack off for the month.
The weather changed, so I did feel a bit better re: motivation, but still only 2 times fully through the routine. Well, my tosses ended up a bit weird and I was missing counts so I did some small extra chunks to try& make up for it. And the wall turn ...
Sigh.
It's only a month and then I'm going to have to figure out how to make myself minimally achieve DANCE basics as well as flag. All while... everything else in my life.
Making it fun only helps so much in that i am Not going to practice across the floors while the housemates are home. Like, full stop, not gonna happen. If the cats had unrestricted access to the basement, we might have a different story, but there's all sorts of things in the way down there, also. (& most of it taking up space actually isn't mine! Only some of it.)
The other thing is that with the heat and unrelated circumstances, even my minimal practice feels like it's been falling short. Maybe because the end is in sight, i'm already over it. I dunno.
In other news, my songbook really is almost ready to print. I had to manually reorder some pages, especially to fit 2 & 4 page songs together more compactly, but it means I'm 99% done! A little worried about how much ink it'll use since i can't check that, but... hoping it's gonna be fine. Well, and i should double-check that all the even-odd pages line up so it prints right, but that's not hard. It's so exciting...
Top surgery getting closer and closer, so I'm sortof starting to worry about it now, especially since like... she's really good at making things work. But she's not perfect, and something unexpected (bad) could always happen. Most importantly, *she doesn't know*. If I could just get an in SOMEWHERE i'd be all set!
If i could just...
Maybe it's not meant to be. I dunno.

Managing my time (mostly) effectively but sooo can't wait for parade season to be over. Just. Too many things to focus on
...
Also they should do studies on my consistent ability to start my day normaltime and then end it wanting Bite

On mobile*:
Go to the settings page (if it's set to load in to the board first, click "back" in the upper left-hand corner)
Go into the button editor
Click "button customization". It only says "change the pronunciation [...]", but you can also change the images.
Touch and hold a button to bring up the edit menu. (For example purposes, i've gone with "am", but this can be any button really)
Click the large button that says "change" to bring up the image picker. Select an image, and...
... click the save button to save it. At this point you might have to also go back out of the edit menu, since iirc it doesn't automatically close.
So, steps 4-6 can be repeated to change the images as you want to :-)
Once you're done the board will take a little while to load back in, and the images may not appear changed right away — this should be *fine*, it just means you might have to quit and re-open the app to see all of the changes.
(Since i prefer arasaac's image set, though, i changed most of these on weavechat connect on my computer, which took less time overall i think. But making a walkthrough for that would be a little more involved ^^;;)
The weavechat youtube channel may also have a video on changing images somewhere, i'm not 100% sure.
*or a tablet i suppose; i assume the interface wouldn't change
Does anyone have any tips for customizing aacs? I wanna make mines fully customized with cute emotes but Idk how or how to change the pre-existing ones :[ (I use weavechat)
#weavechat#[adk] related#hoping this is helpful 🫡 at least a little#completely replacing all of the images is - currently - a very time-consuming task.#i know there's a plan including some sort of symbol set... marketplace ? thing ??#but since they're still finalizing the spanish language translation+grammar & adding other languages in alpha & who knows what else#it may be a while before that shows up (if at all?)

💔 i tracked down ds talker to it's exact forum post where it was released but none of the download links work... well partially cause i had to internet archive it. Still though
#[adk] related#the other ds one is TapToTalk which was more proprietary in that they seem to have had an actual game cartridge...#so. no luck on that front. ds talker was homebrew but it was also from 2007 so. if anyone else can find it i would be very interested XD#i'm tempted to try and make a program myself but my programming knowledge is VERY limited in scope and real programming is very.#difficult to comprehend. let alone go about making a completely new app that could be GOOD...#if i make it it will exist but it will be mediocre-to-bad on the spectrum. so. hmmmm.#i'm calling it an app already but for 3ds it would be an entire program ...

Did everything i need to today + some fun things (game, artfight modelling) but... not enough it feels like. I'm just so tired...
I guess i should just try to go to bed since, there's some things i think i'm doing tomorrow ? But... idk. Should be practicing more and right now it's hard to find out when/where is best for that.
Want a good way to 'schedule' out my day but haven't quite gotten there yet. Of course all my reminders are set up, but i stopped the notification for practice since i wasn't doing it/was sleeping in too late for it to matter.
But it's been a year & ½ (more or less...) since then. & i have a reason to be dedicated to it. So... when to put it in my day?
...
Hmmm.
#100% секретный дневник левы НЕ ЧИТАЙ#mostly this is actually about me being SO FUCKING TIRED#in THEORY i'm getting a good minimum baseline of sleep but past a certain point i can't really sleep in cause i dont like The People of it#or like... feed my cats and go back to sleep. cause to be fair i was doing that for a while! but now i like ... can't.#well i probably could but it takes more time so by that point i'd be like. may as well stay up.#idk. maybe it's how tired i am but i feel like i can't focus too well on games or like anything....#[looks at hours spent 3d modelling] well that is not entirely true#i don't know how to explain it i think i'm just. so tired.#and already sortof overstimulated 2day...... lot of things going into it. but i was ok.#idk i was just like looking in the mirror and said Yeah you sure can see the dark circles of sleeplessness#i always look like that a little i guess but. more tired. sitting with people going Tired. modelling going . Tired. Want to sleep but...#want to do things. &also taking a nap is . process.#i remember for a little while i was taking naps in the afternoon.... i wonder if i've ever gotten enough sleep#well anyways. thinking about ways to schedule my day but i am Too Tired to think about restructuring it XD#part of the problem is if i have Nothing (mostly) to do it stresses me out. like i think too much.#i don't have... idk. maybe the capacity to be bored? or to create? both maybe.#had Novel Food experiences 2day though so that was nice.#like nothing i havent had before just. out of the ordinary for our current situation#man i feel like there's more to say but. just too tired. maybe there's nothing else 2#*2 say ...#maybe i should go to bed and be on my phone and pretend to sleep#it'll work eventually
