I have to agree with the others, you need to talk to someone above her, because her behavior (as your supervisor) is SO inappropriate. This is a difficult position she put you in, not just as a coworker but also as a friend... and you should not feel like you want to quit YOUR job because of it! Hope it all works out. Hugs! Whoa.

I have no idea how she got the position that she did with her lack of work ethics, but no one likes to go to work 40+ hours a week, get paid the amount of one person but have to pull the weight of two. It's not fair to you, and it's not fair the extra amount of time that you put in spending time away from your family. I would make a meeting with her supervisor/boss. I would let them know that you enjoy working for the company, but that you will have to put in your resignation if something is not done about the working conditions that you have to put up with. Let them know truthfully, but bluntly, what has been going on. Yes, she's your friend but that should be outside of work. When you're at a job you should maintain professionalism at all times. I am sorry that you are having to go through this. I have been down this road before and lost a friend/co-worker in the process. But when she made me start to dread coming to work because she was lazy and I knew that I would have to go above and beyond my pay means I decided enough was enough. I'm here if you need to talk.

Pennsylvania is a horrible state to live in when it comes to stuff like this. Your best course of action is to document and report. Otherwise, it could come back to hurt you. It suuuuuucks. UGH!

Is she YOUR supervisor? If so, it's extremely inappropriate that she involves you so much in her personal life drama- especially when it interferes with both of your work lives. And even if she isn't your supervisor, you have every right to say something to the management. It might not be easy (or fun... this coming from She Who Avoids All Confrontation At Any Cost!) but you are clearly being affected by it and it's not fair to you. You have every right to be angry!

Even go as far as playing the voicemail outloud to her boss. That is crappy. She is YOUR boss and not doing a very good job at showing an example of being responsible. She wasn't feeling well on Thursday...felt well enough to go out on Saturday...now feels sick again today (hangover). I'd be furious. You need to report her, me thinks.
