Well, that is over.

My defense was successful. Hoo-rah!

The whole process was really non-confrontational, which was nice. I presented for about 40 minutes and then my committee asked questions for about an hour. No real "defense" was needed. It was cool.

So, I have my signatures. All that remains is the final bureaucracy. But I'm done.

Done.

Done.

Done!
