Adventures with Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker

Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

I Have Not Died

By Abby at 9:46 am on Tuesday, April 26, 2005

It’s just that my dissertation defense is in 15 days and 23 hours, and I have a lot of other stuff to do before then. I’m not sure I’ve been working on my dissertation. I’m not sure what I’ve been doing, but I haven’t been blogging, and I haven’t been Tribing. If I haven’t called you… if I haven’t written… then wait until May 16th to bother me about it 😛

For a correct up-to-the day countdown, please check out the "This and That" area of the sidebar. If you click on the picture, you can read all of my previous posts about my dissertation… You know, for the fun of it.

Hey Abby! I am also working away on the big D. Have you ahd to make any edits yet? I got my first response back from Tom with some pretty big additions/revisions he wanted before I submit it to the entire committee. I am not disheartened yet, but it will be more work. Blech! For god’s sake, I never knew anything about measurement construction before now, I think I deserve a little break!

Well Jack is my official chair, but he’s been completely MIA! Seriously! Sam is my director of research, but technically, it’s down to the chair to sign off on the thing. As far as edits go, I’ve been getting edits back and forth from Sam for the last year! The middle three chapters were mostly done before I left for the summer. I’ve mostly been working on the intro and the discussion and the refs. I’ve also had to do a lot of formatting edits in my results section, but that’s busywork, not thinking work.

Anyway, yeah… Jack needs to respond to me REALLY soon because if he doesn’t give me feedback now and tries to cause any trouble IN the defense, I’m gonna be PISSED!
