Once again, Chelsea Handler has kept me laughing even through the most stressful of times. I read her first memoir, My Horizontal Life, right after my grandfather passed away, and knew I’d have to get her second book as soon as possible. In Are You There, Vodka?, Chelsea relays her years after selling her first book and becoming a more prominent comedian. Of course, she still loves her vodka, but now her parents are driving her crazy — especially her dad.
The problem with the suspenders my mother bought for [my father] is that he hasn’t adjusted the straps since he got them. So instead of attaching somewhere around his midsection, the suspenders clip onto his pants three inches below his nipples. Now picture the suspenders attached to a pair of sweatpants. This vision is what first led me to coin the term “camel balls.”
Even if you’ve never heard of Chelsea, or have never seen her show on E!, you have got to read one of her books. She reads more like one of my favorite bloggers than a celebrity, and has a fantastic sense of humor.
I can’t wait to read Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang.
