Saving Ribbot

Melba offered to sell me something I didn’t want, and I turned down her offer. Her new catchphrase seemed to show her insincerity.

Melba: But I bought it just for you, jk lol...Ribbot told me he was thinking about moving out of town. But I told him not to go, and he agreed to stick around.

Ribbot: Since you're gonna go and cry about it, I won't move away, no compute!Once I crossed the bridge a bit to the south of that spot, I used the Wii remote to wave hello to Ribbot. It’s funny that back when I was playing a lot more of this game, I hardly ever used this feature. But now, I’m using it all the time.

Nate: My head is kinda spinning right now, yawwwn... Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...So I bought some medicine for him, and he flipped for it. I tried not to stare…

Nate does a backflip as he takes some medicine.I hope that was just a shadow I saw.

Wisp’s Lamp

While walking around tonight, I found an empty lamp on the ground.

I find an empty lamp on the ground near the river.When I went down by the beach, Wisp appeared. He told me if I didn’t find his lamp for him, he’d have to stay outdoors all night and that would be soooo scary.

Wisp: And nighttime is really dark! And dark is scaaaaaaary!So I told him I had his lamp, and he went inside of it. He told me to rub it in my attic. When I did, he came back out of the lamp to grant a wish of mine.

Wisp: Yes, yes. Enough of that. Let's skip to the part where I grant your wish.I asked him for furniture, and he gave me a tulip table. Oh joy. But even though I didn’t particularly enjoy the tulip table, someone else did: Avery asked me for it within ten seconds after I went outside. I sold it to him for 619 bells.

After that, I went in to talk to Nate. He was sick, so I bought him some medicine and then returned with it. He gobbled it down.

Nate takes some medicine and flips upside-down.As I finished up watering my flowers, Melba asked me for a new catchphrase. I had her say “jk lol.”

Melba: But I'm starting to think I can't find anything good about Pate at all... Jk lol.

Visiting Beth’s Town

Today, I saw my former New Leaf villager Benedict in the city. He was wondering where the restaurants were.

Benedict: Where the heck are all the restaurants around here?Beth had invited me over to her town Ai at 2:00, so I headed there. I noticed that she had lots of axes in her house…

A room that had many golden axes on the floor.I couldn’t help but wonder if she was planning on doing someĀ Animal Chopping.

Her friend Andy, who also comments on my blogs from time to time, joined in too.

Beth, Andy, and Jeff near the gate.I buried a pitfall seed behind a tree and placed some verbal bait: “This tree looks funny.” Andy came over to investigate first, but he missed the pitfall. Beth wasn’t as lucky.

Beth, dressed as Pikachu, struggles to get out of a pitfall.Andy suggested posing for a picture. I just stood there, but that could count as a pose, right?

Posing for a picture with Beth and Andy.As you may know, when you use the delight emotion (applauding) while holding a tool, only one hand will clap–it looks like you’re hitting your stomach. But considering I was wearing the New Year’s 2014 shirt with the horse on it, it looked like I was beating a dead horse.

Jeff 'beats a dead horse' as he hits the horse on his shirt.Around 2:45, I left and returned home to Forest. I actually didn’t resume my game until later tonight when I went to visit K.K. at The Roost. I asked him for a random song and he played K.K. Lullaby for me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Lullaby.When I circled back around to my house, I saw that I had mail. It was from Mott, a lion I met in Beth’s town. He was telling me about how he didn’t shower today. I don’t know why he needed to point that out…

Jeff! 'Sup from Ai! It's me, Mott! I'll tell you now, but that day you came over, I hadn't showered. Was I all smelly? Talk to you later! WOO! --MottI finished up watering my flowers and then ended my game for the night. Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everyone!
