Still Standing

It took me years to write the first few chapters of my dissertation. The final chapters have come in a matter of months. Just sent my introduction — the last major piece of writing I had to complete — to my adviser.
I’m bloodied and beaten, but I’m still standing.
Oh, sure, I’ve got to compile a bibliography, wrangle the footnotes, fiddle with the margins, and (most importantly) defend the freaking thing, but the point I’m trying to make here is that I. am. almost. done!
Which means that a return to blogging is just around the corner. I can’t wait.
I’m still thinking that I’ll restart the blog at the end of the first week in June. Besides all of the dissertation-work ahead of me in the next month, I’m going to upgrade and redesign the site before I get going again.
In the meantime, my new camera has me all flickred up.
Thanks again to everyone who has expressed support, both on the blog and through email. You’re the best corner guys a southpaw bum like me could ever hope to have.
