I saw Nate tonight and decided to speak with him (for a change). He told me that K.K.’s songs are like ice cream for your ears.
If nothing else, that analogy reminded me to visit K.K. in the Roost. I asked him for a random song and he played “Only Me” for me (and Octavian).
Back outside, I bumped into Rowan. He told me he wanted to move out of town. I asked him not to leave, but he said he was leaving anyway. I figured I’d try to convince him to stay again if I see him, but I’m not going to go out of my way to keep him around. Even though I like him, he’s no Bob.
I found both of today’s snowballs, so I rolled up a snowman. He was pleased with his appearance and declared himself an eligible snowbachelor. Melba seemed to take notice right away. Stay away from her, Snowman! Even though you may want to go down under with her, she’ll melt your heart!
I spoke with Elmer, and he told me lost a race to Octavian. A horse lost a race to an octopus? For your sake, I hope you were racing underwater.
Just a few minutes later, I saw Rowan again. He again talked about moving out, and he gave me another chance to save him. This time, he agreed to stay in town. That was easy.
And last but not least, I spoke with Miranda. She told me that Nate and Avery have been fighting lately. She’s afraid it was going to end up in a brutal food fight, with stew thrown all over town. And that’s a bad thing how?

It’s green and it has a horse on the front and “2014” on the back. The reason for the horse is that 2014 is the year of the horse in the Chinese zodiac. Today is the only day you can get the shirt, so I hope you got yours!
I had a lot of letters in my mailbox today. One of the letters was my monthly bank statement from the Bank of Nintendo, informing me that I’ve earned 99,999 bells in interest on my account.
After a quick, but unfruitful, trip to the city, I returned to water my flowers and talk to villagers. Ribbot told me we’re going to be solid buds again in 2014. That’s good to know, because it’s never a good idea to get on a robot’s bad side.
Rowan, however, was being more arrogant than friendly. He told me he’s so awesome that it scares him. Allllrighty then.
I also switched to my Scott character to put some extra hybrids into his storage. I’ve already grown enough new purple roses that I’ve replaced all the ones I borrowed for Bob’s memorial. I even have several extras. Anyway, I hope you had a good New Year’s Day and I hope 2014 is a great year for you.
And tonight, it’s New Year’s Eve of course. Tortimer was outside of town hall handing out party poppers next to the countdown clock.
I then changed into my tuxedo as the northern lights started appearing up in the sky. I started stockpiling party poppers. Yes, I hoard party poppers. Don’t judge me.
I spoke with Elmer again tonight and he said today is the day we put pajamas on 2013 and put it to bed.
Ribbot told me of a boring New Year’s tradition he has: He cleans his house. You wild thing, you.
And I noticed a new house in town. I went inside to meet my newest neighbor, Pate the duck.
I didn’t stay on for the final countdown tonight, but I hope you all have a happy new year and a great 2014! By the way, if you haven’t already seen my latest Youtube video, then here it is: ACCF – Wi-Fi Moments #59.
