Beauty and Sensibility... and a dead weasel named Ron Weasley

OK, first off GO HERE!

I love this woman so much!


Her name is Jenny Lawson, aka The Bloggess. She writes one of the most amazing blogs I've ever read. I especially love her posts with conversations between herself and her husband Victor. I HAVE to read those out loud to my husband because he wants to know why I can't stop laughing.

I got her book after it came out and finished it in a day. It has all the awesomeness that her blog has. You should really check it out.




One of my favorite things she does is The Traveling Red Dress project. I love this quote from her about it:

“I want, just once, to wear a bright red, strapless ball gown with no apologies.  I want to be shocking, and vivid and wear a dress as intensely amazing as the person I so want to be.  And the more I thought about it the more I realized how often we deny ourselves that red dress and all the other capricious, ridiculous, overindulgent and silly things that we desperately want but never let ourselves have because they are simply ‘not sensible’.”


 I want to find my red dress. I want to do something frivolous and awesome just because... well, just because  (see below)

 
And I will 
P.S.: Oh yeah, she also has a thing for taxidermy animals dressed in people clothes. It's awesome! Oh you don't trust me? See for yourself


Edit:
*SQUEE* I just got a new follower on Twitter and I've gone all Fangirl
