Welcome to Chelsea's world—a place where absurdity reigns supreme and a quick wit is the best line of defense.<P>In this highly entertaining, deliciously skewed collection, Chelsea mines her past for stories about her family, relationships, and career that are at once singular and ridiculous. Whether she's convincing her third-grade class that she has been chosen to play Goldie Hawn's daughter in the sequel to <I>Private Benjamin</i>, deciding to be more egalitarian by dating a redhead, or looking out for a foulmouthed, rum-swilling little person who looks just like her...only smaller, Chelsea has a knack for getting herself into the most outrageous situations. <I>Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea</i> showcases the candor and irresistible turns of phrase that have made her one of the freshest voices in comedy today.
