Is there a doctor in the house?
Posted on July 19, 2007 @ 11:20 am
Why, yes. Yes, there is.
Okay, so even after successfully defending my dissertation, I’m still not the kind of doctor that can technically write prescriptions. But, since I earned my doctorate in political science, I’m pretty sure I can officially tell people who they should vote for now.
One thing’s for sure: I’m finished with learning. I’ve been in school for twenty-five years straight, and I’m pooped. I hereby vow not to learn anything else whatsoever for the rest of my life. Nuts to you, mankind’s eternal quest for knowledge!
In conclusion…woo-hoo!

*insane applause* THIS IS STUPENDOUS NEWS!
Congratulations, Dr. Jess.
You wouldn’t by any chance be one of those cool doctors that give out medical marijuana cards?
Congratulations! That is quite an accomplishment! woohoo indeed!
Nice job. So now that you can tell us who to vote for…who should we vote for?
This news has totally made my day! I’m soooo happy for you.
And for me too because, yeah, having to pick a candidate is just super boring and now I no longer have to.
You rock and now it’s official. Woo-hoo!!! ♥♥
Wow, how cool is this? congratulations! I know it’s a lot of work, and I’d never be able to do it.
*applause*
Here’s to a job well done, Dr. jess!
YAY! Congratulations, Dr. Jess!
Congratulations!!!!
Congrats!
You should turn that professor into a superhero. Just open up his shirt and make his leotard read “DR. JESS”!
That is absolutely fantastic! Congratulation, Jess!
Wow, awesome!
Be sure to get the doctor put on your driver’s license, credit cards, airline tickets, etc.
I am SOOO proud of you! Now, tell me who to vote for please!
Thanks for the kind words, everyone! I’m still in a state of shock myself. We literally scheduled the defense less than 24 hours ahead of time, and I had a 10-hour drive to make to be there. Since getting back, I’ve mostly been wandering around in a dazed stupor, hearing angelic choirs singing faintly in the background.
Congratulations!! What an amazing accomplishment! I am so, so very happy for you!
Please tell me your dissertation involved the cone of tragedy.
Congratulations!
Congratulations! Your dedication is quite amazing. Hopefully this means more tales from the classroom are in store.

Congratulations. Does that mean this site shall now be known as Dr. Of Something?
Hm. Wasn’t there a doctor in your house before this?
Congratulations Dr. Apropos!
Sorry to be late to the party. Are all the good drinks gone? And the cake too? Drat.
Huge Apo-Props to the doctor!
