Toy Day

Today is Toy Day in the world of Animal Crossing. Not to be confused with Christmas Eve (which is tomorrow), Toy Day is the day where Tortimer will be at the wishing well plaza to hand out gifts. He will give a miniature car to boys, and a dolly to girls.

Tortimer: For Toy Day, I'd like to give you this miniature car.

Of course, I already received the car in a previous year, so he didn’t give me another one. Even though his dialogue seems to indicate otherwise. But here is what the car looks like; it’s a model of Gracie’s car.

In the mail, I found a goodbye letter from Leopold the lion. I kinda liked the guy, but at least I still have him in my other town (Ohio).

As you can see, snow now covers the ground and trees. Christmas lights are also up on many of the regular and cedar trees.

Shaking a Christmas tree (with lights) in Animal Crossing.When I visited Snake, he was complaining about how Katrina the fortune teller ripped him off. But I was more disturbed by the face he was making.

Snake: I didn't really get what she said, and she charged me 50 bells for a reading...
You’re complaining about 50 bells?

Since autumn is way over now, I wanted to change out of my straw shirt. So I went up to Nookington’s and bought this blue check shirt. I know it looks like a tablecloth, but I kind of like it. 😛

Me trying on the blue check shirt.

I found a new house next door to Maple, and I was surprised to see who it belonged to: Boots the gator! If you follow my New Leaf blog, you saw me recently mention that Boots was one of the Amiibo cards I recently got! I’ve been thinking about inviting him to live in New Leaf town, so it’s a coincidence that he showed up on GameCube right now. Welcome to Forest, Boots!

Boots: OK, I got it, Jeff! Good meeting you, Jeff!

Over by the waterfall, Static was not a fan of my blue check shirt. He said I looked awful, and he wondered who dresses me.

Static: You're looking awful as ever. Who dresses you?

That was pretty rude of him, of course. But on the bright side, he did give me some new clothes for free: a gray tartan. It looks alright, so I went ahead and put it on.

I had a little chat with Puck, and he was talking about Scott (my player in my secondary town of Ohio). But then he changed subjects and started talking about how hungry he is. I better not get between him and his sandwich!

Puck: Well, whatever. I'm hungry right now, and when I'm hungry, WATCH OUT! (animated GIF)After pulling weeds and talking to all of my villagers, I returned home. I played the Tennis game I found last time, for a few minutes at least. Tennis games are tricky at first until you get the timing down and learn the best places to stand. But I didn’t play long enough to fully get the hang of the controls, so I didn’t do very well.

Me failing at NES Tennis in Animal Crossing.That’s all for now, but I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! See you in 2017!
