~ A night of laughs ~

So today I was working away and got this email from Brittany "Hey I just found out Chelsea Handler is coming to SLC on August 6th, would you be interested going with me at all?" HOLY CRAP, let me just do my best to describe what I was feeling once I finished that sentence "@*&^@#$*(@^#$ YES.. WOW!! I was clapping my hands together, laughing, smiling ear to ear. I felt like a 10 year old kid on Christmas who just found out they got a new bike or a puppy.. I am almost 25 years old (in September) and Chelsea Handler is in my TOP 10 on people I want to meet/see/support. She is absolutely hysterical. She has a show on E called Chelsea Lately! I am a dedicated fan to her show and have it recorded to DVR some I have seen about 10 times over, but still love. She does stand up, HILARIOUS!! Also, she has written 3 books! My Horizontal Life, Hello Vodka, its me Chelsea, and Chelsea Chelsea BANG BANG. All of which I have read and CHERISH. She is one of the funniest people I have ever listened to.


Let me go ahead and say "THANK YOU BRITTANY.. I am counting down the days til we are laughing til we cry and snapping photos til my memory card is CRAMMED"( I will be clearing my memory card for this too.) I have the date on my calendar already and I am SO EXCITED!! Lately all my excitement and happiness is coming from me being pregnant, Jason and I preparing for our Precious "Peanut's" arrival in December, so it is sweet to be looking forward to something I have enjoyed since before "Peanut was a twinkle in our eye" (hahahaha people have said things to me like that before and now I can actually use it.. hahaha)

Here is a link to a blooper video from Chelsea's show!

Here is some info on Chelsea, incase you are interested! :D
Chelsea Handler has become one of entertainment’s most sought after and versatile rising stars. In July 2007, Chelsea broke into the world of late-night talk shows with her E! Entertainment series, “Chelsea Lately,” airing weeknights at 11:00 p.m. Consistently the network’s highest-rated program, “Chelsea Lately” offers a tongue-in-cheek look at entertainment news, celebrity truths and rumors that just won't die, along with other hot topics of the day. Bringing refreshing new energy to and redefining perceptions of the talk show, “Chelsea Lately” is an authentic and hilarious commentary on the celebrity culture around us. Both Handler and the show have also been recognized as pioneers in late night with the show boasting five female writers to account for half of its writing staff. This is unprecedented in the late night arena that has historically been dominated by male hosts and writers. In addition to her wildly successful television series, Chelsea is equally well-known as a best-selling author. On March 28, 2010, she achieved a spectacular feat when her three books took the #1, #2, and #3 spots on the New York Times Best Seller list. Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang, from Grand Central Publishing, was the #1 nonfiction hardcover; Are You There, Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea, from Simon Spotlight Entertainment, was the #2 nonfiction paperback; and My Horizontal Life, from Bloomsbury, was the #3 nonfiction paperback. In hardcover, Are You There, Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea debuted at #1 on the New York Times Best Seller list when it was published in April 2008; and My Horizontal Life has been a bestseller for 80 weeks. As a testament to her versatility and tireless work ethic, Chelsea’s 21-city comedy tour, also entitled “Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang” and sponsored by Belvedere Vodka, kicked off in March 2010. After tickets sold out immediately, Live Nation added 15 more shows. As one of the nation’s most acclaimed and cutting edge-comedians, Handler delivers a sharp combination of fearless honesty, ironic riffs and self-deprecations with no shortage of material.
With her roots in both stand-up comedy and television, Chelsea was also the star of Oxygen’s “Girls Behaving Badly” (now syndicated in over 90 markets ) for all of its four seasons. She also starred on E! in “The Chelsea Handler Show.” In 2007 – 2008, Chelsea starred with Jenny McCarthy and Leah Remini in the hugely popular MSN online web series “In The Motherhood.”
In March 2009, Chelsea was honored the prestigious Ally for Equality Award by the Human Rights Campaign, recognizing the outstanding efforts of those who dedicate time, energy, spirit and whole-hearted commitment to better the lives of LGBT people. She continues to be an influential and dedicated advocate for the LGBT

community.
