Your Secret Santa has been beaten by bugs, reindeer, and now elves. A gang of insurgent elves has tried to kneecap good ol' Santa and while Rudolph and Blitzen trampled them into mush they managed to damage Santa's left knee. Now s/he has to go to the doctor.

BUT! Your pressies are riding around in Santa's snow machine and will be sent off so that (hopefully) you'll be able to use them on St. Paddy's Day.

(Santa's Siggy Other has been ill, Santa has been ill, there has been A LOT of snow and Santa fell down and it seems that his or her left knee was damaged in the fall. Santa doesn't NEED another Christmas Season like this one!)
