teleribThe Advisor called me today after I left her a message. I tried to answer the mouse.
On the up side: The draft should be done by suppertime.
Also, I learned that as a part-time student, I can get Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard for only $99 instead of $299. That really rocks, and I must at once go get a copy of my transcript before I am no longer a student.
On the down side: There will be a section of handwaving. Hopefully, by the time of the defense, I will have something to back the handwaving up with. But I don't like having to put handwaving into the draft, even, because it primes the committee to think that you're trying to pull a fast one on them.
