My PhD thesis had a chapter in the appendix that, alone, took me a month to write!! (technically, it took me a month to research how to go from one mathematical expression to another in hundreds of little undocumented steps - writing was 2 days).
Congratz! New life ahead!
Enjoy!
It was a joint degree so the dissertation was only worth 1/3rd of my degree and therefore only had to be between 12,000 and 15,000 words. I'm a fast writer though. In my undergrad when they required 2000 word papers, I could write it in 3 or 4 hours start to finish. And mine was just 4 of those papers with a short intro and conclusion. The appendices were short as well only 5 of 1-3 pages each.
I couldn't imagine doing a PhD thesis.... I want to do a PhD but the thought of having to write 100,000 words on one thing just makes me nauseous. Well done to you!
Thanks!
Fingers crossed, it will pass.

I have an inalienable, constitutional and natural right to love whom I may, to love as long or as short a period as I can; to change that love every day if I please, and with that right neither you nor any law you can frame have any right to interfere. And I have the further right to demand a free and unrestricted exercise of that right, and it is your duty not only to accord it, but as a community, to see I am protected in it. I trust that I am fully understood, for I mean just that, and nothing else."
