I have a job interview tomorrow. Please send good vibes
and I'm defending my dissertation on Friday. Light candles, pray, levitate the pentagon, whatever but wish me luck.

6. Lots of good vibes sent
not sending luck - because you wont get through because of luck - you will get through because you have become one of the premier people in being knowledgeable on the topic. Given you have done your work well (and I have NO reason to believe that you have not) - you have to have faith in your work and in the fact that probably no one else has as much knowledge and inisght into your topic and research than *anyone* else - presuming this is a PHd dissertation. (Masters theses are not quite to the same level of research - no insult intended.) Best of luck - not luck per getting through -but per you compsure and not having a complete jerk on you committee (which you would already know by now). My bet - you sail through and do beautifully.

15. a big wave of welcome to you, ExecutiveMom04!
Welcome to DU. Be warned - we are a little crazy here (group dynamics wise) but if you can weather the funky dynamics this is an incredible place to get more info/anayses and find some amazing folks.

Nonsequitor per the topic - but what the heck. :hi:

22. Haven't been here long... but this seems like it belongs in the Lounge
I thought general discussion was like about politics or things affecting the nation?
