Month: March 2014

Tom made a short visit today, wearing his wrestler’s mask.

He didn’t have the matching shirt, but I ordered the wrestler’s tank from my catalog for him. I should get it tomorrow, but he changed back into his king outfit for now. I also visited Tom’s town, where we made a bunch of bubbles.

And I took a picture of King Tom’s silhouette coming out of Crazy Redd’s tent.

Tom experienced an unusual glitch. He said he saw a bug–a grasshopper or something–just sitting still, as if it were glued to the ground. I came to his location, but I didn’t see anything. I did hear a mole cricket, though. He got his net out, swung at what looked like an empty spot, and caught a mole cricket! Somehow, he was able to see (and catch) the mole cricket even though from my perspective, it should have been underground and not visible.

Tom’s friends Daniel and Kathryn were visiting as well, and they were both really nice. Although, Tom did pitfall me while I was away! Tom went looking for more mole crickets to see if the glitch would happen again, but no such luck. Daniel, Kathryn, and I were just doing emotions while Tom continued to talk and look for more mole crickets.

Eventually, Tom found a lost item and called off the search for mole crickets. The rest of us continued hunting them down, however. Here, I dug one of them up, but I had trouble getting to it as it crawled away.

Before long, Tom ended the party and I returned to Forest. I went to visit Agent S, and she had a trade offer for me. She said she’d give me a twinkle tank for my (customized) ranch bookcase. Not exactly a fair trade, but I want her picture, so I agreed to it.

As I continued talking to her, she told me that she was the youngest of two kids. Very interesting! I wonder who her older sibling is! Any ideas? Leave a comment below and let me know who you think it is!

Saharah was in town today, so I hired her and then made her run across town.

She installed a blue-trim wall and a Saharah’s desert in my house.

I decided to save the Saharah’s desert in storage, and as soon as I got done, Aurora barged in.

She gave me a scale as a gift (trying to tell me something?) and then I just sat on my sofa, waiting for her to leave. Once she did, I saved and quit my game for the day.

I got a letter from Agent S today, and she cast a spell on me!

And all of a sudden, I felt the urge to play with Agent S! I tracked her down, and she was talking about Kim from Warrton. She said Kim was an awesome green thumb and she said the two of them were destined to be best friends.

Today was Skye’s birthday, so I made sure to stop by her house to celebrate.

I gave her a customized polka-dot closet for her present. It’ll match her walls! But she didn’t seem thrilled with it for some reason.

Rolf was also celebrating with her, and he told me that since he got there first, that means he’s a better friend. How rude!

I stayed for a bit and danced with them, but on my way out, I spoke with Skye once again. She told me that she’d like to be the mayor of her own town! Not this town, wolfgirl!

I visited with Teddy today as well, and he was frightened by a rumor that he’s a prince from another planet!

And when I ran into Agent S again, she was talking about Katie. She apparently sees Katie as competition! Agent S thinks that she’s the star of the town!

And up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Micah from Azure was the most recent dream visitor to my town.

Okay, now it’s time to begin the giveaway for the cabana furniture set!

***GIVEAWAY DETAILS***

There are three ways to enter: [Entry details removed now that the contest is over.]

You can enter using any or all of the three methods listed, but only one entry per method. The contest will end on Wednesday, April 2nd, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. All valid entries will be entered into a spreadsheet and a random number generator will be used to choose a winner.

The winner will be announced later that night on my April 2nd New Leaf blog entry and on Facebook. I will also attempt to contact the winner directly at that time, so if you enter on Facebook, make sure you’re able to receive private messages. (Also be sure to check your “other” folder in case the message goes there). If I am unable to contact you for any reason, you must contact me and claim the prize (by opening your New Leaf gate for me) by Saturday, April 5th at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. If you don’t, you will forfeit the prize.

Note: If the winning entry was from a comment left on JVGS, the prize will ONLY be given to the winning friend code chosen (to prevent abuse).

More blah blah: I am unable to keep the winner on my friend roster after the prizes have been delivered. If the winner does not claim the prize by April 5th, another winner will be chosen. That replacement winner will also have three days to claim the prize.

I decided not to buy any turnips this week, so I didn’t even start my game up this morning. It was evening by the time I played, and it was a dreary Sunday night.

The Nooklings had a salad bar on sale at the Emporium, which I don’t recall seeing at the store before. I bought it, mainly just so it would be in my catalog.

I went over to the Dream Suite to update my dream, and Luna told me that JP from Pallet was my most recent dream visitor.

Rolf asked me for some furniture, so I gave him the salad bar. I don’t necessarily think a tiger would enjoy a salad bar that much, but I’m actually looking forward to seeing it in his house. He thanked me and rewarded me with a ringside table.

Even though the weather was treacherous, I trusted Kapp’n not to sink his boat on the way to the island.

When I returned to Forest, I went up to the museum to take a picture of my full cabana set. The giveaway will begin some day this week, so stay tuned for the details.
