THANK YOU FOR RUINING MY BIRTHDAY

Thank You for Ruining My Birthday is a raw, cathartic, and sometimes ridiculous story that portrays the rejection, loneliness, and uncertainty of dating in New York City. Using text and images plucked straight from her personal diary and photo library, Ploger shares the journey of recreating her identity after the sudden end of a long-term relationship. With whimsy and a touch of self-deprecation, Ploger dives into questions about who she is and what she wants, ultimately revealing that the ride is more fun when she embraces her curiosity, femininity, sexuality, and the messiness of life.
