So strange that we met this past year-- it was like going through the final days of the world together. Congratulations! I can definitely empathize with you right now.

When is your viva? Are you nervous about it? I feel like I should still be studying.

For all I know we could viva on the same day. . .

Canadians conquering two super-nations! The way it should be.

Thanks! I felt the kinship too this last couple of months. In fact, I was actually reading back through your journal in the last couple of days to find your posts on post-dissertation depression, and also on the irritating inability of MS Word to text wrap around tables. So I definitely felt like a partner in crime.

I'm going to blow my academic cred admitting this, but our department actually has no formal viva/defense. I've presented my work to the department in a couple of seminars / sample job talks etc., but there's no do or die final presentation. Once the committee of three signs my dissertation, which they have, I'm done, baby. I get the paperwork and the funny hat on June 10th.
