14. Only once, and that was in 1999

I was scheduled to sing at my church's Christmas Eve service and then fly to Minneapolis on Christmas Day morning to join the family celebration, but on December 23, I came down with one of the worst cases of flu I've ever had. I cancelled my plans and spent all day Christmas Eve and Christmas Day lying in bed, drifting in and out of consciousness while listening to the radio--King's College Choir, the Metropolitan Opera's presentation of The Marriage of Figaro, and countless reiterations of We Wish You A Merry Christmas through the night.

That 48 hours goes into the record books as the worst Christmas of my life.
