You'll note these do not relate to quality, to prose style, nor to "I need one more reference". <BR/>Like knitting, you only do a dissertation a word at a time; then a sentence, like a row; a paragraph, like a section; a chapter, like a sleeve...you go!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855752.post-63433730302314607662007-04-05T14:39:00.000-04:002007-04-05T14:39:00.000-04:00Oooh, stealth knitting!

It's really crazy how fast it accumulates.<BR/><BR/>You're a rock star and you're going to get through your dissertation. Someday it will be a story you can tell with fondness...or we'll go out and get drunk while reminiscing over the horror these times were.
