Insert Praise Break Here.

So thank God for the courage to make that awkward phone call to my last committee member's cell phone last week Thursday.

In a moment of pure desperation, I sat in the back of the computer lab where I was working and dialed the number that would help break the deafening silence of unanswered emails and calls to her office phone. The result: we scheduled a meeting for today during her office hours.

I arrived at 4:30 en punto! Midway through the session I heard words that almost made me shout in my seat and ALL the way home. In a nutshell, she confirmed that she would contact my advisor and give the final go ahead to schedule a defense date.

Praise Jesus!!!

We accomplished a lot of other stuff during the next half hour, but those words about scheduling were definitely THE most important.

Now, actually securing the date is the next milestone, but I will acknowledge and celebrate ALL victories en route to the ultimate destination.
