How to spot a PhD student in their final few months

I'm staying at home today because it's too much effort to put on clothes that don't have holes in inappropriate places or fall off entirely when I stand up.

Is this how agoraphobia begins?

Oddly enough, that never happened to me. In my case, I didn't want to go out because my pants had all gotten too tight and I didn't want anyone to see the muffin top.

(Notice that I didn't have any problems making trips to the supermarket.)

Makes me think I'm destined to be a PhD student some day (good thing that's the game plan, eh?). I hardly ever go anywhere (lectures and pracs are compulsory, but I live on campus anyway so they don't really count) and forced myself to join several clubs this year in a bid to get more sunlight.

Good luck with the thesis! You sound like you're well on track!

Does writing 'chuckle' imply the action or is it just weird to state verbs?
