Lactricity

When I visited Bones on Monday, he was wearing a guard’s uniform (QR code) and talking about his computer. He said it runs on “lactricity.”

Bones: Look at me! I got a computer and everything! It runs on this stuff called lactricity, ice cube.

Hornsby asked me for an ocean fish yesterday, so I went down to the beach. Luckily for Hornsby, I didn’t catch a sea bass or a horse mackerel; I caught a football fish (worth 2,500 bells). I gave it to him, and he rewarded me with an executive toy.

Hornsby: Wow! Is this football fish for me? It's so sweet!

Today, I found a lost item on the ground near Agent S’s house. Agent S was nearby, so I asked her about it. Surprisingly, it was hers! She rewarded me with a wet-road sign.

Agent S: What? Where'd you find this bag?

At Shampoodle, I changed my hair back to its normal color (brown). And at Able Sisters, I changed my shirt. Since today is opening day of baseball season, I put on my Indians’ block C logo shirt.

When I returned home, Hornsby barged in. But he brought me a nice gift: a laptop!

Hornsby: Here! I brought you a laptop as a present. I hope you like it!

After he left, I noticed that the sapling clock tweets at the top of the hour. I think I heard some tweeting at the bottom of the hour as well.

Hornsby’s Birthday

Over the weekend, I saw that Hornsby has put up the customized matryoshka dolls in his house. So if you want to see all three little men, here’s a pic.

Saturday was Shamrock Day (St. Patrick’s Day), and it was also the day of the fishing tournament. I spotted the Shamrock Day face-cutout standee at the event plaza, near Chip and his tent. I played too late to participate in the tourney, though.

Today, I bought this sink that Hornsby was selling at Re-Tail.

Reese: Oh, the sink? This item belongs to Hornsby from here in Forest.

Interestingly enough, today was Hornsby’s birthday! So I decided to give him the sink he was trying to get rid of…as his birthday present! Surprisingly, he loved it! πŸ˜€

Hornsby: A sink! I'm so impressed that you picked out the perfect present, hun!

Agent S was also at the party, having a good time.

Agent S: Birthday bashes are the best! Seriously, I'm always looking for an excuse to par-TAY!
Squirrels gone wild.

Outside, I spoke with Rolf as Bob was standing right behind him. Rolf asked me how well I get along with Bob. Hmm, did Bob put you up to asking me this? Just a hunch.

Rolf: How well do you and Bob get along?

I visited Molly in her house, and I was a bit surprised by some of her dialogue. She asked if I’ve received a badge from Phineas. That’s not something villagers normally say…but then it hit me. Wait, is she saying this because Phineas was in town? I ran to the police station and asked Copper what was new. He confirmed that Phineas was in town! Wow!

I searched town, and eventually found him near the event plaza. He gave me the Weed Menace badge, which is the gold weed-pulling badge! I didn’t think I’d be getting this anytime soon, so I was quite happy about it!

I got the Weed Menace badge! This is the result of my ceaseless weed-pulling addiction!

So I now have all gold badges except for the StreetPass one. I will probably never get that one, so tonight may be the last time I ever see Phineas in New Leaf.

Manly Matryoshka

Lately I’ve been trying to help out my two newest villagers, Hornsby and Bones. I want to get their villager pictures, after all. Well, it’s probably too soon for Bones’ pic, but Hornsby has been in town for nearly six months. So maybe I’ll get lucky one of these days.

Bones: Will you please take this package away from me and deliver it to Hornsby?

Hornsby: Nice! This sea bass is for me, right?
Note: These pics are from separate favors. The sea bass wasn’t from Bones.

Since St. Patrick’s Day is coming up, I made another dream visit to the town of Shamrock. It’s one of my favorite dream towns to visit. If you haven’t seen it before, or just want to see it again, head on over to dream address 6E00-0026-F069.

Gulliver was in Forest one day recently, and he sent me a matryoshka from Russia. I’ve been checking to see if any of Gulliver’s items could be customized at Re-Tail, because I wanted to add that information to my Gulliver Guide. I’ve now tried them all, and the matryoshka is the only one that can be altered! It can be changed from ladies (the default) to gentlemen. This is what it looks like:

Take home the matryoshka?

It didn’t take long for one of my villagers to ask me for it. πŸ˜› Hornsby wanted it tonight, offering to give me a soccer tee for it. I agreed to the trade, just to be nice.

Hornsby: So how about trading your matryoshka for my soccer tee?

Joey the duck was at the campsite tonight. My town is full, but I probably wouldn’t have invited him to move in anyway. He’s okay, but not one of my favorites.

Joey: The air in this town smells delicious!

Bob again told me he was planning on moving away (on March 25th this time). But I denied his request, as usual. πŸ˜›

My recent dream visitors have been Harrison from Town 50, Jula from Bellay, Noelle from Unicorny, Bunny from Pastel, Gretchen from MadroΓ±o, Jack from Olive, Timber from Xing, and the lovely BroknToe from CakeFart. πŸ˜€ Thanks for stopping by!
