So I finally heard back from my chair about my dissertation...she likes it so far, of course had some edits, but I'm feeling really positive now about staying on track and getting this whole thing wrapped up and defended by February. Which would mean I could look for a place to present it after that...say the next American Psychological Association conference in August...located in Toronto. Why the AMERICAN Psychological Association is having a conference in Canada is beyond me, but if the government will pay for me to go...oh yeah, did I forget to mention that my internship will send me to a conference to present my dissertation? Of course, if another conference pops up in Atlanta, that might win out, but it's an interesting notion...
