Out of My Hands
April 4th, 2006 by PotatoWell, I still don’t have a firm date for my thesis defense, which means that my thesis isn’t technically due yet, but I handed it in today anyway. It brought me a brief moment of joy. Not the sort of joy that you might expect from sexual ecstacy, nor even that brought about from a passionate kiss… more like the kind of joy you experience when you fold the laundry and realize you have exactly the right number of socks.
Of course, if it turns out that I have a May defense and thus have another week before it’s due, I might just run over and take it back to fiddle and worry until the last minute…

I know the feeling, albeit on a much much much smaller scale. When I was creating my “portfolio†as part of my college application I knew it had to be perfect and I kept revising and revising and I had at least 3 people proof it for me, and finally when I sent it I was glad that was it gone and over with. It’s a feeling of relief. Congrats on handing it in by the way!
