As usual Emma Blackery knows what’s up. Christmas isn’t so much an event as it is series of skills you have to acquire. Whether it’s wrapping gifts (you have to get the corners just right) or tolerating your extended family (murder is not festive) it takes years of practice to be a Christmas professional. I’ve bee training half my life and I still haven’t figured out how to pick out the perfect gift for people I see once a year. Like Emma, I can’t say that I’m altogether proficient in the Christmas arts, but I appreciate her honestly here. I mostly just try to conceal my many Christmas fails by buying extra wine and getting all my relatives extra drunk. It takes real Christmas balls to admit that you just can’t Christmas.
