I have deposited.

And paid the university for the privilege.

The degree won't be awarded until August, but frankly that hardly feels like it matters.

The Albatross can soar up into the sky, untrammeled.

Also, [livejournal.com profile] heres_luck, [livejournal.com profile] matociquala, and [livejournal.com profile] melymbrosia are fantastic people to go bookstore trawling with on the afternoon after one has deposited one's dissertation. I'm just saying.

faboo, I'll look you up in six or nine months when it appears in the database!
*dances happy dance*

I still think someone ought to do a "secret diaries of a dissertation student" spoof: it's surprisingly quite an emotional roller-coaster, and there seems to be such a universal pattern of stages... Hmm!

Wheeeeee!

I distinctly remember being annoyed that people were not congratulating me effusively right after I turned in my diss -- the fact of my having turned it in should, obviously, have been writ in strange and mystical sigils on my forehead -- so I feel that your bookstore-trawling idea was clearly inspired. However: mazel tov! :)

Congratulations! In another six months, I hope to achieve that too. But hoping isn't doing, and you've done. Hurray!

Wish I had that kind of stick-to-itivness. :-)

Hey, does this mean we can get more Dorothy L. Sayers reviews? :-)

Congratulations! After all your hard work, you deserve praise, fun and much relaxation.

But I must say, having to pay the university for the privilege of sumbitting your own thesis is a bit much...

My congratulations. I am also envious of your bookshop-trawling company.

I'll add my congratulations to the pile. I hope your shopping afternoon was punctuated with all calling you "Doctor", and perhaps cracks about wearing strange (possibly furry?) hoods on demand.

Albert Ross no more!
