🎄 Day 17 — Sleigh Maintenance Mayhem

Update: Santa’s sleigh is officially grounded. ✈️❌

Turns out, when you ignore maintenance for 364 days, things break. The elves popped the hood (do sleighs have hoods?) and found three candy canes, half a fruitcake, and Rudolph’s Spotify playlist jammed in the gears.

🔧 Elf Mechanics on Strike

The sleigh repair crew refuses to work until they get hazard pay for “glitter inhalation.” Can’t blame them—one cough and you sparkle for life.

🎶 Rudolph’s Mixtape

Discovery of Rudolph’s “Holiday Hits but Make It Emo” playlist raised more questions than answers. Let’s just say sleigh bells don’t sound the same when paired with an acoustic guitar.

🎅 Santa’s Solution

Santa suggested duct tape and “positive vibes.” Mrs. Claus suggested AAA. Neither seems helpful, but here we are.

At this point, deliveries might be on foot. Hope you like late presents and elves in orthopedic shoes.
