I've been dreaming about the job market, about shopping myself around and finally landing that tenure-track job at the PERFECT place. In the shower, daydreaming about it. At my desk, daydreaming about it. At the park with the boys, daydreaming about it.
But my daydreams aren't rooted in comps doldrums, as you might think. No, they're rooted in the Promised Lands I've been hearing so much about, these magical places that actually have manna from heaven everywhere you step. STs and OTs and SI therapists and developmental specialists everywhere you go.
Autism Heaven on Earth.
Lately the Holy Land that has most caught my attention is Dallas/Ft. Worth. There are maybe three SI therapists in all of southern Arizona. But just one office in the Dallas area has double that. Wow . . . can you imagine making an appointment without sitting on a waiting list for 6-9 months? I can almost taste the manna!
And so while my mind should be focused on other things, I find it drifting to all the professional contacts I have in DFW, all the job opportunities there . . .
Don't worry. Next week I'll hear about all the amazing specialists in Atlanta or some other place and be daydreaming anew.
