The snowman I built last time send me a letter in the mail, along with a snowman carpet. I put it in my house today.

Wendell the starving artist walrus was in town today, looking for food. I caught a yellow perch for him, and he was glad to have something in his stomach.

In return, he gave me the four-way pattern, which is the intersection of the street paths.

Baabara was telling me how she almost became a pop star when she was younger. She said she could sing and dance, but there was one thing she lacked. I then had the option to guess what she was lacking…

I guessed that good looks were the thing she didn’t have, and naturally, she turned into an angry blue fluffball of rage.

When I visited Puddles, she was complaining that every day of her life is more boring than the last. She also asked me for red furniture (as she has been for a while), but Nook’s shop didn’t have any today.

I went to say hello to Static, and he was relieved to see it was me and not Bill who came through his door. I guess I’m not the only one who doesn’t like Bill.

Chevre asked me to make a delivery to Baabara, and I agreed to help. But only because Baabara was literally standing right there.

I dug up three fossils today, and two of them were returned to me. But the other was an apato torso, and it completed the apatosaur!

I made a 25,000 bell payment on my mortgage at town hall, and now I only owe 43,000 more.

On my way back home, I realized I hadn’t seen Bill outside today. So I went inside his house and saw that he was all packed up and ready to move out of town! I did not try to stop him. Fly far, far away, please.

That’s all for now. See you Saturday!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Over at town hall, I made a 35,000 bell mortgage payment. I only owe 68,000 more bells, so I’m getting close to that next house expansion.

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.

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.

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!

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!

The fortune said I was kinda lucky…and then it said luck favors the 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.

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.

When 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.

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.”

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.

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!
