My grown-up Christmas catalyst: A holiday tale
1
It’s a bold parenting move to give your kids the best Christmas ever, and immediately get divorced right after. But that’s the holiday memory that sticks out most to me. Aside from the year that my drunk uncle rolled his truck into a ditch and called my mom to come pick him up because he had one too many DUIs, but I digress.
The year was 2001. Zoolander was released in September of that year after having the World Trade Center towers digitally removed from any skyline shots of NYC in the film. Needless to say the world was looking for something – anything – to be joyous about. I was a freckle and pimple-faced boy of 13 who desperately wanted a girlfriend and a dirt bike (not necessarily in that order.)
