night
Last night, went to see a friend, someone who's finished her PhD, with the same supervisor as me. I said, he said I could finish in 4-6 months. She said, if he said that, you can actually finish in 2 months. It's just a matter of forgetting the fine-tuning and the perfectionist bullshit, and formatting the thing so you can send it out.
Right now, I believe her. I had a great day today. I'm nervous that this heightened sense of possibility will crash down into... something else. But right now, it seems possible. Two months. That, I can really do. In fact, I'm doing it. Put all the chapters together, in one huge document... now just need to sand it down.
I think I have the flu, my brain is all crummy and my typing is way worse than usual. Also, I must work tomorrow and I don't want to. :(
