About this time last year, I told you about a woman who was a hero to us single ladies everywhere: Bridget, a single woman who owned her unmatched status in a series of hilarious holiday cards.
In case you missed it, here’s the story: Bridget is one of five children and the other four are married. As the holidays approached in 2010, Bridget’s parents “decided it would be awkward to have a Christmas card with just one daughter in it, so they cut Bridget out of their Christmas card.” In other words: her parents are unfeeling assholes who like to single-shame their daughter.
But Bridget, being awesome, wouldn’t let her parents’ insensitivity keep her from sending an amazing holiday card. So for the last few years, she’s given the gift of holiday greetings that all of us single ladies can identify with: one was signed “love, bridget, just bridget” and featured her knocking back a bottle of wine. Another featured our hero in a canoe with a male mannequin with the tagline “sailing into 2015 with love and loneliness.”
And now, courtesy of Bridget’s brother on Imgur, we have 2015’s card:
I don’t necessarily get the chicken, but I do get Bridget. And all I want for Christmas is to be her best friend (and get on her Christmas card list).

Jenna used to be known as 2NOTBrokeGirls, but then one of the girls actually went broke, so she's struck out on her own. Jenna spends her free time saving the world, one sorority girl at a time (usually while wearing yoga pants), questioning why she decided to get a doctorate, and documenting her love of all things cheese related. You can ask her anything you want about football, using your boobs to get what you want, and pizza at @JennaLCrowley on Twitter or via email at JennaLCrowley@gmail.com.
