The Dramatic Irony of Hope's latest Announcement

The the wiki defines it as "the device of giving the spectator an item of information that at least one of the characters in the narrative is unaware of (at least consciously), thus placing the spectator a step ahead of at least one of the characters."
In other words, Hope has no idea what's coming.
Or, in the words of my wife, "This is going to rock her little world."
Or, in the words of my friend, "Hope's gonna be ticked."







CONGRATULATIONS!!
congratulations, Ched!
But it will be the best gift she has ever had, and it will keep on giving for her entire life. Congratulations.
Ched,
First, congratulations!
Second, I think you are the SWBTS version of me (or am I the SEBTS version of you)? Same dissertation stuff, same basic time in the program, my oldest daughter looks around the same age as yours and her middle name is EliSabeth, and we're waiting for our second. Crazy.
Third, how's your dissertation coming?

Matt,
Either "crazy," or creepy! :)
I'm finishing up seminars in May, and then I'll take comps; so the prospectus is currently percolating; I'm hoping one day (soon!) it'll grow up and be a big boy dissertation.
