Flea Chocolate

Yesterday, Vladimir told me that he was thinking about moving out of town. I did not try to stop him, mainly because of my cranky villager surplus.

Vladimir: I've been starting to think maybe I've gotten a little too comfy here in Forest, ya know?

I played again today, but it was too soon for him to be in boxes. Look for that when I play again next week.

As I was banging a rock, looking for money, I heard the little jumping sounds of a flea. I got my net out and caught a flea that was on Roscoe. I liked his comment about being chocolate to fleas. 😛

Roscoe: Don't know why, but I'm extra delicious to fleas. I'm like a flea chocolate!

A few minutes later, I found that Antonio was also suffering from fleas! I also freed him from his flea infestation.

I caught a flea! Itchy itchy!

It’s not that often that I see two villagers with fleas in the same day, much less just a few minutes apart. But I have to wonder why Antonio, of all my villagers, couldn’t take care of it himself? He sucks bugs through a straw every day of his life! He should be good at that sort of thing by now. 😉

Over by Pac-Man Pond, a pair of penguins were having an impromptu penguin party.

Boomer: Yaaaaaay, it's Dr. J! Let's have fun in the sun! Let's play the whole day!

They didn’t tell me what the occasion was, but they sure seemed to be having a good time. 😛

Harry has been sick with a cold, so I gave him some medicine Monday, yesterday, and then again today.

Get well soon, so you can be healthy enough to leave after Vladimir goes. 😛

Wendell was in town, but I didn’t stop to talk to him (or give him food). I’m sure he’ll be okay, though. 😛

Have a great weekend, everyone! See you again soon. 🙂

Foot Fingers

On Monday, Vladimir asked me to make a delivery to Grizzly for him. I agreed to help out, and Grizzly was happy with the skull shirt that Vladimir sent.

Grizzly: It's great to have friends that'll go out of their way to send you a little something, at circus!

Vladimir later rewarded me with an old brick wall. Just what I always wanted. 😛

Tom Nook was apparently hosting a block party at Nook ‘n’ Go. 😉 The three pieces of furniture for sale were all tall, rectangular items: an exotic wardrobe, a storage case, and a ranch bookcase.

Is this the right angle to take a screenshot from? 😉

At Crazy Redd’s shop in the city, I jokingly tried to buy an item I didn’t have the money for. Redd wasn’t happy that I tried to get it for cheaper than his asking price, and he said “What’n the Sam Hill?” 😛

Redd: What'n the Sam Hill?

And with St. Patrick’s Day coming up soon, I made my annual transformation into Mohawk McClover yesterday. But I took it a step further than usual by getting green shoes this time! Well, they’re green and white stripes, but that’s the best I can do. 😛

Tonight, Pascal was in town, standing on Forest’s middle bridge. He asked if fingers started growing on our feet, would we have to call them hands instead of feet? Pascal says some odd stuff sometimes, but this is one of his weirdest comments.

Pascal: If fingers start growing on your feet, do you have to call them hands, maaaan?

Boomer said he was considering moving out, and I asked him to stay. Not so much because I like him, but because I really want to get some more crankies out instead (just not Tom). I think I changed his mind, but his dialogue wasn’t 100% convincing.

Boomer: But I'll try asking if there's some way I can stay!

I tried talking to him several more times, and he didn’t mention moving. But I did (accidentally) catch a conversation between him and Lobo. They were talking about food, and I couldn’t even see Lobo behind the cliff. I couldn’t see much of Boomer, either. 😛

Lobo: Wow...ah-rooooo. Just hearing that gives me heartburn...

Have a great weekend, Animal Crossing fans! 🙂

Redecorating Upstairs

Ever since 2012, when Nintendo released the creepy furniture set as DLC (two items per month in the latter half of the year), I’ve had those items displayed in my upstairs room. Today, I finally redecorated that room. I installed the Pavé set, which I got out of storage so that I could take a screenshot for my upcoming Festivale guide.

That’s how the room currently looks, although the picture in my guide will be slightly different: It won’t include the clock, which was DLC, and not an item earned during Festivale.

Roscoe asked me to play a wilderness survival game, which was really hide-and-seek. He gave me ten minutes to find him and the penguins (Boomer and Hopper). It didn’t take me long to find Boomer, who was unsuccessfully trying to hide behind a sign post. 😛

A minute later, I found Roscoe behind a tree. And shortly after that, with eight minutes remaining on the timer, I spotted Hopper behind Lobo’s house.

It was a pretty easy win, and Roscoe gave me a broken post for winning. Why can’t I get a prize that isn’t already broken, though? 😉

Roscoe: Here, have a broken post. You deserve a little something for that performance.
Did it break when you tried to jump it to escape Lon Lon Ranch?

Saharah was in town (on hump day), and she was searching for some old wallpaper.

Saharah: Your old wallpaper, you will bring some to me, yes? And for them, I will give you exotic wallpaper I have made!

I asked around, and only two villagers helped me out: Tom and Queenie. But I couldn’t ask Grizzly if he had any wallpaper, because he was locked out of his house. Until I found his key, that is. (Fortunately, it only took me two attempts.)

I caught a key! ...Whose key is this?

I returned it to Grizzly, and he called me the master of searching. Just like he’s the master of “eating a whole oatmeal?” I don’t think that’s the right way to say that… 😛

Grizzly: You're like the master of searching! Like I'm the master of eating a whole oatmeal!
You’re a bear; you should call it porridge.

He rewarded me with a tall buzzoid, but unfortunately, he didn’t have any old wallpaper to give me. And I didn’t have any in storage, so I was unable to redeem the two I got. I’ll save them for next time.

Anyway, my monthly bank account interest pushed my total savings balance over 54 million bells.

Your current balance is 54,040,000 bells.

See you all next time! 🙂
