This week has been one of the most emotionally draining and horrific weeks of my life.
I think the lowest point was when I found myself sobbing on my bathroom floor at 3:30 a.m. on my birthday. What a fabulous way to start the next year of my life.
Yeah, my birthday was yesterday.
I don't want to get into all the dirty little details, but let's just say there were certain people who made my life a living hell.
I haven't been getting much sleep either. Like, I think it has been over three months since I've had more than five hours of sleep at night.
Despite being an exhausted sad wreck, there were some highlights.
My friend Andrew and I had a joint birthday party last week. My best friend Jonny flew in from New York City just to attend. I hadn't seen him since this summer!
Here are some photos:

It was a fun time with lots of people. We even had a few party crashers, who we welcomed because they brought expensive booze.
Craig (above) made me the most amazing Morrissey-themed birthday present which I immediately put up in my apartment next to my Marilyn wine bottles:
So, see, my life isn't really that bad. I have wonderful friends.
Anyway, I'm sorry for not being around lately. The stress of the holidays, mixed in with a jaw-dropping amount of work, just took over my life this month.
I hope your December has been awesome!
hey jennifer, i am so sorry to hear this. i've had birthday's like that to. you have some wonderful friends, but it also seems like you have some not so good ones too. take an inventory of anyone that makes you sad and delete them from your life. if it's family, that's hard to do but keep them at a distance. anyone that causes that much pain is not worth it. you'll feel a lot better. i hope this passes soon for you. you deserve happiness! miss you girl!
