Beginning a blog

So I just finished my comprehensive exams (quals for those in the US). And I am about to embark on the process of writing a dissertation.

Since I deal with stress by laughing at it, I thought I would record my thoughts as I swim through the academic rapids that is the thesis, and hopefully some other people out there who feel my pain can laugh along

It won't all be funny though, even now, I am starting to feel some of the pain, as questions I got asked during comps called into question the entire premise of my thesis.

So off I go, what do you say to start a (hopefully) two year journey?

Dissertation Ho'!  (Ok, so hopefully that one doesn't morph into a nickname).
