April Fool’s Day

It’s the first of the month and that means I earn interest on the money in my bank account. This month, I earned 53,466 bells.

Dear Jeff, We appreciate your business and hope that you are satisfied with our service. You have earned 53,466 bells in interest. -BANK OF NINTENDOIt’s April Fool’s Day, so Tortimer is outside town hall to give us a gift. It’s a leaf.

Tortimer: It's a leaf!It resembles a piece of furniture in your pockets, since it has the same leaf icon. But when you put it in your house, it literally is that leaf icon. The joke’s on me. April Fool’s.

A leaf item on display in my house.I walked around town watering my flowers. I heard the sound of a flea jumping around, so I looked and found an itchy Del.

Del: No one knows me like you, right down to my follicles! That's how you pick off fleas so well, yes yes!Next, I took the bus to the city and checked the marquee for new emotions. No Frillards, so no thanks.

Clerk: What show would you like to see today?I also made a rare stop in the Happy Room Academy. I saw my own room (the one with the gorgeous furniture shown above in the leaf picture) was the model room. Lyle especially liked my gorgeous stool.

Lyle: All the Gracie furniture? In one room? Never seen it. Old Lyle especially liked the gorgeous stool.Back in Forest, I noticed that some of the trees are pink now. This is because it’s early April and cherry blossoms are out.

A pink tree near Bob's house in Animal Crossing: City Folk (ACCF).I talked to Egbert and he told me that Bob and Del are fighting.

Egbert: Have you heard the news? Bob and Del are in a HUGE fight right now.And last but not least, I stopped in to check on Kid Cat. He seemed to be feeling a bit better, but he said he was still a little sick. So I gave him some more medicine.

Kid Cat: Anyway, I must be getting weaker if I have to take medicine like this, on top.Despite connecting my Wii to the internet and starting up my game repeatedly, I still did not get the DLC for April today. Hopefully I’ll get it tomorrow.

Sick Kid Cat

I went around talking to my animals and Rowan asked me what I thought of him. I told him he rules and that made him happy.

Rowan: I gotta know, what do you think of me? Jeff: You rule!When I went into Kid Cat’s house, I saw that he was sick. So I went to Nook’s to get some medicine for him.

Kid Cat flips as he takes some medicine in ACCF.Mint was walking around outside at night. I talked to her and she told me I should get to know my friend Ash.

Mint: You should defintiely get to know Ash, too, you witch.

A Loud and Crazy Night

Even though JVGS has been around for several years, March 30th marked the one year anniversary of me launching my own domain: jvgs.net. To celebrate, I decided to wear my JVGS pattern as a shirt today in ACCF.

The JVGS logo on my shirt and on the flag outside my house.I heard a balloon present flying overhead, so I tracked it down and shot it down. It contained a robo-TV.

Shooting a balloon present in ACCF.Later on, around 10:00, I opened my gate for Friday Night Forest. Yann, Olivia, and then Bushido came in.

Olivia, Bushido, Jeff, and Yann near the Forest gate.I called everyone to my house, but I was really luring them into a trap.

Bushido struggles in a pitfall.We hung out in my house for a while. Olivia showed off her pigtail.

Olivia wears a pigtail as we all hang out in my gorgeous furniture room.Olivia and her friend Dennie were using Wii Speak, so we all just had to jokingly poke fun at their British accents. I hope they don’t take offense, because I honestly like the accent. :3

Yann: Tolking british. Jeff: Yes I bloody am.And… well… yeah.

Jeff: Don't wee in blonket.We went up to the attic and I ordered a pizza.

Using the phone in the attic in Animal Crossing: City Folk.Olivia used a sparkler on me. It made me…melty.

Jeff, being burned by Olivia's sparkler: Ooh ah oooh oww.We all went to the ocean and got shocked. I’m not sure why… it’s not like we saw a loose seal or anything.

The four of us using emotions to appear shocked.We went in Scott’s house, and there was some merging going on in the obstacle course/maze room.

Players merging near the bed in Scott's basement.Everybody wrote on my bulletin board tonight–thanks guys, I really like when people do that. 🙂 Even though it may not appear that way when I shot a party popper through Olivia’s head. Don’t worry, she didn’t feel a thing.

Jeff shooting a party popper through Olivia's head.Throughout the night, we had three people using Wii Speak: Bushido, Olivia, and Dennie. But Bushido left around 11:25, and the two Brits were starting to get tired, so the volume decreased slightly to a dull roar. 😉

For reasons unknown, I actually talked to Alice, my most terrifying animal. She’s into some crazy stuff. 😮

Alice: Oh, I don't care! The crazier, the better! Let's do all three in one day! Morning, noon, and night!Anyway, I ended up closing my gate around 12:15. I had a good time.
