My hangup is that my church (Episcopal) does not seem to realize that Christmas starts the day after Thanksgiving.

They refuse to sing carols until Christmas Eve.

And then Sunday, when we’re out of the mood, we got carols.

I was all hungup when I was Episcopalian, but everything is better since I became Orthodox.

Hmmmm, my late mother-in-law’s Episcopal church used to do a “Lessons and Carols” service on a Sunday afternoon sometime before Christmas.
