Why do you think this blog has the word "mad" in the title?
The pins and needles of waiting for word on my thesis are mutating into hot coals. I'm sick of waiting. The temptation hit me this morning to channel Veruca Salt, call up my advisor and sing "I Want It Now" until he goes bug-eyed and wrangles the info out of the Graduate Division. He doesn't strike me as the type to have seen "Willie Wonka", so it would discomfort him on so many levels.
However, I think he's still out of town, so we are both spared. On the other hand, this gives me time to filk the lyrics for my own nefarious purpose.

When do you find out? I'm sure you're fine...and I expect a copy in my mailbox when it's approved! :-)

Mail? Mail? BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
HEE!
Seriously ... I called yesterday, and after being put on hold for 45 minutes, they told me that the thesis is back from the reader and they are prepping the response letter and they will call me when it's ready FOR PICK-UP. Not that I'm sure I trust them to mail it to me first-class registered/certified mail. In theory, I should know by the end of the week.
