Holidazed: Wrapping your brain around Christmas

by Tracy Lee Curtis

With her witty and self-deprecating sense of humor, Charlotte Observer humor columnist, Tracy Curtis, shares a collection of Christmas columns past. Holidazed is a spirited look at the chaos and craziness of the season, and the absurdity of trying to make it perfect! Because Christmas isn’t perfect and it never has been. The video card replaced the Facebook card that replaced the Christmas card. People are gifting kidneys, like you could ever top that. The kids can make advent wreaths, but can’t make their beds, Elf on the Shelf won’t do his job, Santa’s getting dissed on holiday napkins, and Starbucks apparently killed Christmas with a single red cup. And nobody knows the words to these carols - why is everything ye, yonder, yon - yore, troll and don? Who talks like that? Holidazed reminds us all that nobody’s perfect – especially at Christmas!
