Yeah I Am!

It lasted one hour. By 3:30pm it was all over.

At the end of my ten minute presentation the chair of my committee commented that, at one point, he thought I was going to run out of air because I was talking so fast that I wasn't breathing.

Regardless of that, I gave the presentation, I answered the questions and I PASSED.

I am now a master. Of what? I like to think that I'm now a Master of the Universe.

Thanks for all the good wishes - they definitely helped!

Fabulous! I found you the same way "Wicked Stepmom" did. Thanks for stopping by. And fabulous job on defending your paper. I usually don't defend mine. I let them take a self-defense class and tell them, "You're on your own suckah."

I lose more papers that way.

Thanks for your comment on my blog! Yes, the Asian salad from the Italian place was surprisingly delicious and amazing. You're so right...that's all that matters. They even served it with two breadsticks. Ha! :)

One hour, and you've got your Masters degree? Fantastic! I take it they didn't rake you over hot coals. Fabulous, when they forget to do that.

Congratulations, ALF. :)
