...and he is responsible for all kinds of elfish pranks. Our tree has been undecorated countless times - the solution to which problem is that ALL 300 ornaments are now hung on the top 24" of the tree. Wonderboy tried placing a few packages under the tree today, but that tricky little elf absconds with every label and bow! He has a language all his own that we have not been able to decipher. It's punctuated by spitting and clicking, so I think he might actually belong to the African Bushmen. And he keeps a stash of pacifiers conveniently located under the tree, because an elf never knows when one might be needed in a moment of mischief. I'm pretty sure Santa tossed him out on his ear because he's not so good at the kinds of things you would think elves would excel at. No adorable hand-made wooden toys have mysteriously appeared under the tree, and I've already mentioned the UN-decorating of the tree. He doesn't leave a trail of magical elf dust, rather a smattering of tossed-aside toys and animal crackers. And did I mention he sometimes smells really awful? I won't rehash the ladybug noshing horror, except to say that it wasn't an isolated incident. What kind of elf does that? You can see how he feels about candy canes below.
