Settling Down

10/08/2012 The Blue Stocking 1 Comments

For the most part I’m a pretty happy single person, but every once in a while I have this weird desire to just “settle down” 50’s style with a string of pearls and a set of heels. I just think it would be real swell.

Also, this video is awesome. Enjoy.

The Anti Austens

We are The Anti-Austens, a collective of feisty, young Latter-Day Saints endowed with old-fashioned sensibilities (acquired through our Mormon upbringing and extensive reading of Jane Austen novels) trudging our way through the modern dating scene. Our blog was first created in 2010 and based in the Latter-Day Saint epicenter of marriage: Brigham Young University. Since its creation, the blog has seen many writers come and go, but those of us who remain continue vigilant in our quest for a gentleman happily blessed with our ideal qualities. For a few of us, that quest has led us away from our original hunting ground (BYU) on to hopefully greener--and considerably less overwhelmed--pastures.
