In which I say "dude" a lot

[timeripple]

Why does this never get any easier?

I have an awesome topic and a pathetic number of pages' worth of flailing around about how Mortimer Plantagenet Sprague expresses certain class and gender tensions differently from how Alger's street-boy heroes do.

It involves the word "dude". A lot. And yet I am still not happy.

I think the worst part is that I'm not supposed to speculate. I kind of just want to write fic at this point, because that's the only way to explain what's going on with this character. Horatio Alger fanfic. I think there may be something wrong with my brain.

is this Horatio Alger? do they have you sitting around reading his novels? really? cool. I'm trying to piece this together (due to unfailing curiosity in your coursework) - is Mortimer Plantagenet Sprague a character in one of the books?

I am listening to my celtic playlist while getting ready for work (soon!); the song is a new Solas one about a man who wants his love/wife to come back to him and promises to change his ways. 'Mollaí Na Gcuach Ní Chuilleanáin' (now that's a mouthful to read).
