Dare I hope?

I have just learned that an expert external reviewer for my thesis has been found (whew) who is agreeable to a teleconference review in August. And....there may be a tentative date in the last week of August for my defence.

It hasn't been rubber stamped by my supervisor yet, I will know soon. And then.
Then?

I have to submit my thesis by mid july and then prepare for the speech of my life. And an oral defense.

Meep.
