I've been formally asked by the director of our research group to move my office to the adjacent building by the end of the year. My new space is part of a cluster of desks where they send students who are ready to write up their PhD thesis. I still have a little more research to do, but it's minor stuff. I expect to begin full-time writing by February, the latest. Most of that time, I'll just write from home and save myself the commute. Writing will take about two months, and revisions another 2-3 weeks from that.
I plan to have my thesis ready for submission by May, which is when our first baby is due. The timing of all this is working out nicely. I'm finishing my PhD and setting myself up for a real career, coinciding with starting a family. We don't yet know what we are having, boy or girl, but we will find out next week. More details to follow soon...
