Jenny, you have NO IDEA how amazing and inspirational you are. It was because of YOUR writing of your struggle with depression and anxiety I finally got the courage to get treatment for my own depression/anxiety issues. I have been getting counseling and medication now for about 3 months, and it has made all the difference in the world.
You are an absolutely incredible — like Mother Teresa, only better.

My husband works for a library wholesaler and he was SUPPOSED to get me the book on the DAY it came out, but here I am 8 days later with no book. I’m hoping he got it for me as an anniversary gift for our 1st anniversary on Friday (the paper anniversary after all), and I swear, if he didn’t, he’s getting a giant metal chicken at our front door. Which will be incredibly awkward, since we live in an apartment building, so it will likely block the stairs and he will not be able to get inside. Which is what he deserves if he didn’t buy me this book. Angry neighbours and a giant metal chicken.

So…tonight I cried a little because not only did I miss my normal small group Bible study, but your book signing…(you’re the real reason I cried a little …those other girls will forgive me and see me this weekend at the party.)
Either way, it is all due to my wedding reception that is this Saturday and while I thought I had planned a perfect amount of time to do it all (I totally did), what I didn’t plan for was a blown fuse, people calling me to buy my software (daytime job) every 10 mins (this is awesome!) and having to put together little gift baskets for guests attending our party this weekend…
Long story short…I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY wish that I had been able to come to your book signing tonight. I was saving buying your book for this. Now I just have to get it online and miss the chance to try and make you my best new friend. My partner (husband/whatever) already agrees that both of our lives would be more full if you were part of it…and not because he thinks I am lacking. It is because then he would not have to be my “Victor” and he would probably not have to give me crazy looks if you and I were friends.
Congrats on all that is so obviously deserved! I look forward to continue sharing you with everyone I know!

Completely deserved. The other day, I was sitting in bed reading your book and wishing that reading could be more of a group activity, just so I wouldn’t have to laugh like a lunatic all by myself. So I asked my husband if I could read him a chapter, and he said no, because he’s planning on reading the book after me and he didn’t want me to ruin it for him, but I did it anyway because that’s how I roll. And then I started laughing so hard while I was reading it that I was crying, and I couldn’t go on, so maybe reading it out loud was a bad idea. But then I realized my husband was TOTALLY enjoying it, which only proves that I’m always right and he should just defer to my wishes all the time.
ANYways. Point is, this book was already the best book I’d ever read EVER even after I’d only just read the first page. When it ends, I’ll be sad, because other books will pale in comparison. So many congratulations. 🙂

You rock, Jenny! Thanks for just being who you are, and doing what you do. The highs and lows you share make me feel like I’m not alone in struggling through this roller coaster called life, and when you can make the journey funny, you do. And the lows don’t seem as low, and the highs get higher. So rock on, sister.

Congrats! This is super exciting news. I haven’t had a chance to get your book yet but it seems like it is you in book form. Since you are awesome it thus makes sense that everyone would love it. I’m glad that everything is going according to the master plan that I’m sure you have in place.
1) Conquer the internet by being amazing
2) Write a book
3) Become super popular in the “real” world
4) ?
5) Cage match with JK Rowling
6) ?
7) World Domination
I personally am looking forward to the various well dressed dead animals that will soon be watching over all of us and keeping us safe.
Congratulations again. We’re all super proud of you obviously.

SOO happy for you! I got the book on Friday, finished it last night and LOVED IT. I laughed so much, I recognized myself and my family…I instantly went on to my facebook and announced it was one of the top 3 books i’ve EVER read (and I read A LOT). You are such an amazing inspiring woman Jenny. For real.
Just to point it out-I identify so much with you and you inspire me with your braveness, wit, sense of humor and courage. My Dad, to whom I am close, moved away when I was 18. He recently moved back home and I’m 32 now. He’s been saying he needs to “re-learn” who I’ve become as a woman: my dry wit, sarcasm, what I find funny, my likes and dis-likes, etc. I knew right away, the best way to show him- I’m going to make him read the book.
You rock forever. Keep on Keepin on.

SQUEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! Amazing 🙂 Many congratulations to you! My husband just went out of town on a work trip and the number one thing I requested (/demanded) was your book. Yes, I live in a small town with no book store. Anyway, it’s hilarious and endearing and making me feel sane and some slight jealousy, and then I remember that I am from a culture that still values hunting/gathering very highly and I have some pretty great blood/dead animal filled memories including helping to skin a caribou on our living room floor.
Anyway, I can’t put it down. Other than to comment here, or when I made myself tea, or when I made some ranch dressing to accompany my lunch.
Also, I am not jealous of the the whole rheumatoid arthritis thing, cause I got that shit and it fucking sucks.
