Dissertation defense passed!

I just got out of the defense meeting and got an enthusiastic pass!
It was night to day compared to the previous defense. I got great feedback about the presentation, my handling of questions, and of the manuscript. My only "follow up" is to fix a handful of typos...that is all!

Whew. It feels great. This was literally years of work and it all turned out positively. I am having trouble believing it really did just happen.
