I Was Born at the Wrong Time

I belong in a Jane Austen novel.


And Emma is one of my particular favorites.  It seems perfect to me, really.  I could be British.  And I would look fantastic wearing those gowns.  And how studdly do the men look?  Mmhmm!  Yes please!  Plus, they had balls!  For weeks now, I've been dying to go to a ball.  But alas, none are to be found.  Also, it would be very difficult to dance at a ball alone.  And I most particularly do not want to be standing alone on the side looking lonely and feeling unwanted.

If only I had a Mr. Knightly...

  1. Okay so I am totally laughing my butt off because I completely read part of this post wrong: "And how studdly do the men look? Mmhmm! Yes please! Plus, they had balls!" I thought at first that the 'they had balls' comment was referring to the studdly men. Lol, I can't stop laughing at myself.

    And you would look lovely in a gown like that!
