Chevre’s Front Yard

When I started the game up tonight, I saw that Kiki was still around. So fortunately, she did not move out of town.

Most of the time, I’m too lazy to build a snowman. It takes time to build one snowball up until it’s big enough to push, and then you have to push it to wherever the other ball is (before building it up as well). But when I find both of them pretty close to each other, I figure I have no excuse not to give it a try. That’s what happened tonight, and I put this guy together.

Snowman: All flawlessly executed! And my face... Perfection!I’m glad he had such a high opinion of himself, because I’m not sure I agreed with him.

It’s not unusual for Baabara to be rude or bossy. But her request today was oddly specific: She wanted me to form a band and play bluegrass music for her to dance to.

Baabara: You should form a band and play bluegrass for me to dance to.With it being Saturday night, I made sure to go down to the Roost to check out some live music from the local singing dog. I asked for a random song and I got to hear a performance of K.K. Jazz. It was putting me to sleep.

K.K. performs some jazz music for me in the Roost.After a visit with Chevre, I came out of her house and noticed something: The flowers were arranged perfectly around her house! Did she do this to make her front yard look nice? Or is it a very big coincidence? I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like this in an Animal Crossing game.

On my way home, Pudge pinged me to ask me a question. He said “La la la,” and then asked me what song that was.

Pudge, asking me what he just sang: 1. Our town tune. 2. I love green tea! 3. Can I hear it again?I didn’t really notice any song, so I chose option three (for him to repeat it). He used an emotion that displayed a music note, and he again repeated “La la la,” along with his catchphrase “pudgy” this time. But he didn’t actually sing anything.

Pudge: La la la! Pudgy!I was still confused, so I just took a wild guess and picked the second option, “I love green tea!” He told me that was the correct answer, and he gave me a prize: a blue chair.

After that, I headed home for the night and ended my game. Thanks for stopping by!

New Year’s Day Fortune

I started up the game today to see if there was anything special for New Year’s Day. And indeed, I spotted Tortimer outside of town hall. I spoke to him, and he told me he had a New Year’s fortune for me! I didn’t see that coming!

Tortimer: Happy New Year, Jeff! I prepared a New Year's fortune for you!The fortune said I was kinda lucky…and then it said luck favors the foolish.

Your fortune: Kinda Lucky. Dreams: Yes... I think. Love: It should work. Health: You're OK. Luck favors the foolish.
Are you saying I’m kinda foolish?

Uh, thanks Tortimer. I spoke with him again and he said he hopes it will be a good year for him. But then he wondered how it could be anything else.

Tortimer: Well, I'm hoping this will be a good year for me... But really, how could it not be?
Um, I can think of one way…

When I checked my mail, I found New Year’s greetings from Mom and Static. Mom sent me 10,000 bells, but Static just hoped I got the letter in time.

It's a day, Jeff. Hopefully this reaches you on Jan. 1st. If not, well... them's the breaks. Happy New Year. Have fun. -StaticWhen I visited Kiki, I found her all packed up in boxes and ready to move out of town. But I think I talked her out of moving.

Kiki: Jeff, if you want me here so badly, I'll think about it. But no promises!I ran into Yuka outside, and she asked if I knew any greetings that would help her win the heart of someone she liked. I told her to say “I have rabies.”

Yuka: I have rabies, huh? Are you sure about that?Puddles offered to sell me a tuxedo for 510 bells, and I took her up on the offer. I was already tired of the grape shirt, and seeing other people with nicer clothes made me a bit jelly.

Puddles: My tuxedo! I'm gonna totally miss my tuxedo...After putting it on, I walked around a bit more and then returned home for the night. I’ll see you next time. Happy new year!
