Yesterday, I received a goodbye letter from Truffles the pig. I was as happy as a pig in mud to see her leave. 😛

But the good vibes ended quickly when I saw who replaced Truffles. It was Tabby!

April has not been kind to my Animal Crossing towns in terms of new villagers. I got Tabby in this game, Marcel in City Folk, and Beardo in New Horizons. Yikes.

If there’s any consolation, it’s that Tabby probably won’t stick around very long. 🤞

When I spoke to Genji, he said that all the trees in town are filled with happiness and sunshine. I think he’s been watching too much Bob Ross lately. 😂

At Nookington’s, I bought a paw shirt…and nine other items. Actually I just wanted some raffle tickets. Then today, I returned to use those raffle tickets. Tom Nook had some good prizes, especially that Arwing!

One of my entries was a blue ball, so I won a samurai suit. Even though I don’t necessarily need the prizes, it’s fun to participate (and especially win) the raffles once in a while. 🙂

A treasure hunt was also underway, and I found the prize: a frog woman pole. 🐸👩💈

Tabby twice tried to sell me turnips she didn’t really have, but I didn’t fall for her tricks.

See you all next time! Never Stop Crossing! 🙂

I received a goodbye letter in the mail today: Pippy has squeaked out of town.

I quickly found her replacement just one acre to the south: It’s Truffles the pig. I’m not a fan of pig villagers in general, and Truffles is one the uglier pigs in the series. Well, at least she probably won’t stick around long.

When I visited Carmen, she had some really mean things to say about Gracie (who is supposed to visit town soon). She even said Gracie has a face like a horse!

This is some dialogue that I did not include in my recent Villagers Insulting Special Characters video. Well, maybe I’ll make a Part 2 someday.

Ursala told me that she was planning on going on a picnic with her boyfriend next week.

She wanted to know if muffins and apple juice were a good combination. Sounds good to me!

Genji asked if I wanted to be the manager of his tumbling team, and I turned down the offer. He said maybe tumbling isn’t very popular, but he put an extra space in between the words “isn’t” and “very.” Not a big deal of course, but I noticed it. 😛

Puck was looking forward to the Cherry Blossom Festival coming up in early April. I usually check it out each year, since it is a 3-day event (unlike most events in the game). So perhaps I will again. 🌸

I didn’t get to speak to Emerald or Sydney tonight, because they were already in bed by 9 p.m.

Have a good day (or night), and I’ll see you all next time!

Opal the green elephant has already moved out of town. I received her goodbye letter in the mail today.

Her replacement was a rude, pink mouse. No, not Candi; I already have Candi. It’s Carmen, and she’s even worse than Candi. 😛

She lived in Forest a decade ago (back when my blog entry titles were almost as long as the entries themselves). And even back then, I thought she was a returning villager. So that means this is likely Carmen’s third stint in Forest. Hopefully, it will be a short one.

Tom Nook is apparently having a sale on March 1st, and that’s all most of my villagers would talk about.

Pippy even tried to convince me that Nook isn’t having a sale…so that I wouldn’t buy up everything. Some villagers are afraid of the competition.

Of course, Nook’s sales just have one item for sale, and villagers can’t buy them anyway. But whatever, Pippy. 😛

Tom had a very different approach to the sale, and I found it amusing. He said it doesn’t matter if you miss a sale or not, because Tom Nook will end up getting your money one way or another. Too true! 😂

Now that winter is over and the snow has all melted, I changed out of my winter sweater. I’m now wearing a stormy shirt, even though I don’t even remember where I got it. It was in my pockets somehow. 😀

I asked Static for a job, and he asked me to deliver something to his buddy Puck.

So I delivered the gift (a jagged shirt), and Puck really liked it. He rewarded me with a blue table.

I recently posted a video that takes a look at the insulting things villagers will say about special characters like Tom Nook, Redd, Blathers, and more. It includes clips from this game, but also some from Wild World and City Folk. I hope you’ll give it a watch!

See you all next time!
