Dear Diary,

I HATE the day before Christmas Eve. Most of the year I get to have fun in the workshop, making toys and games. But today? Today, December 23rd, is the worst day of the year. It’s the day when Santa sends everyone their ASSIGNMENTS. That tells us two things: what we’ll be doing until Christmas, and what department we’ll be working in next year. Next year I’m working in Puzzles. You know, Rubix cubes and stuff. But today and tomorrow?* I’m working in the REINDEER STABLES. That’s right. Cleaning out stalls, giving reindeer bathes, and running test flights. Ugh. Well, bye.

Merry Christmas,

Snowball
