Dear God, how I wish I'd never met her…. Sometimes I wished she was dead.Jennie and Martha became friends when Jennie moved in next door. At least, Jennie thought they were friends. Jennie admired everything about Martha -- her house, her gorgeous husband, her bohemian clothes, even her children's exotic names.
