...I will not sleep tonight until I have 5000+ words on Chapter 6.
[as of 10:38 a.m., 4300]
Do I really have to go to work tomorrow? Can't I just stay home and write?!?

My Mood Today (Friday, 25 July 2008)...
Things are changing here at "Dissertation Deconstruction 101." DD 101's two main contributors (my BFF Rochelle and I), have both taken F/T jobs! I finished and defended my dissertation in April, graduated May 10th with my doctorate, and took a job at Colorado State University a week later. Rochelle is cranking out the pages of her dissertation (even though it's "lazy July!), and she just took a AWESOME job at NCTC in Corinth! Yes, we ROCK. Join us here as we blog about dissertating, new professorships, and juggling busy lives of writing, research, and teaching. --DONNA
About Me...
My name is Donna. I am a thirty-something, married, PhD candidate in Rhetoric. I work three jobs; I love my husband, my dog, my cat, and even my doctoral committee. I have my seven precious neices and nephews, and I juggle 120 new "kids" of my own - every semester. I have too little money and even less time, and I rarely have a "Ph.D. Melt-Down" that Dave, a glass of wine, or a plate of brownies can't fix. I wouldn't change it for the world.
"THE PAST IS PROLOGUE..."
Hello and welcome to the scary world of Deconstructing the DISSERTATION! It's a unique place in the virtual world - a spot where the past really DOES become prologue, as I struggle to synthesize years of education into one coherent piece of personal, life-changing, PhD worthy literature...

I just wanted to let you all know that I am still here. I am writing--nothing good--and trying to get through this process :(
I'm sorry I didn't join the call to write with you all, but I really can't keep up with you incredible dissertators! I don't think I can talk to people outside of this world because my sentences have stopped making sense, I'm forgetting everything, and I am also peeing tea ;)
Keep going...I am watching and bowing down to your progress.
