Bad Trade Requests

Over the weekend, I found one of my favorite villagers Savannah at the campsite. Unfortunately, my town is full thanks to Camofrog’s recent (and unexpected) move-in. Ouch.

Savannah, at campsite: Oh, hello. Are you from here? I fell in love with this town and decided to take a camping trip here.Yesterday, Big Top wanted to trade his pink tartan shirt for my silver nugget! Ha! That’s a really bad trade offer.

Big Top: Let's make a deal! Wanna trade your silver nugget for my pink tartan shirt?

I got another lopsided trade offer from Hamlet tonight. He tried to make it interesting by pretending we were big-league managers. Considering that the World Series started tonight, it’s an appropriate time to play this game.

Hamlet: Yo! Big guy! Let's play a game, we'll pretend we're big-league general managers.But the trade he proposed was not fair. He wanted to trade his painting set for my sabertooth torso fossil. No deal!

Hamlet: I'll trade painting set on my team. Sabertooth torso on your team comes over to me.I visited Camofrog tonight, and I didn’t see him at first. And not just because my eyes were closed. He was really camouflaged in his house!

Camofrog camouflaged in his house.

He then told me a story about how his mom used to trick him into doing chores by rewarding him with sweet potatoes.

Camofrog: Some days...I'd help out without even being asked! Hey wait! My mom totally tricked me! Gah!

My recent dream visitors have been CC from Utah and Brustie from Duwang. Thanks for stopping by!

Just a reminder that Friday Night Forest is this Friday at 10 p.m. Eastern time. I may only stay open for one hour, though.

“Sweet Cheeks” Hamlet

Remember how Hamlet was talking about how he watches construction workers and it makes his muscles tingle? The very next day, he sent me a letter saying someone has been calling him “sweet cheeks!” Haha…

Jeff, I'm not sure what to do. Someone in town is calling me "sweet cheeks." Is that a compliment, or have I been attracting bees lately? -HamletOf course, hamsters have cheek pouches where they store food. But I don’t think those are the cheeks the construction workers were referring to. 😛

Beth invited me over to her town Acorn the other night to see the meteor shower. I also met her neighbor Bonbon while I was there.

Bonbon: It's like diamonds are shooting across the sky! I wish some would fall into my hands, deelish!I wanted Bonbon to get her wish. So I also wished that a shooting star would land on her. Here it comes…

A shooting star flies across the sky, headed for Bonbon.
Bye bye, Bonbon.

Yesterday, Lily was camping at my campsite once again. She camped here one day in August too!

Lily, at the campsite: Oh, hello. Are you from here? I fell in love with this town and decided to take a camping trip here.

Near the Roost today, Hamlet told me he was seeing visions of Camofrog floating by, after an intense workout.

Hamlet: For a moment, everything went white! Then, beyond the light, I saw an image of Camofrog floating by...He then dismissed it as dizziness after cartwheeling everywhere.

Hamlet: Or maybe I was just dizzy after cartwheeling all over the place. In my ear!
You’re right, dizziness comes from in your ear.

My recent dream visitors have been Cabbage from Clock, Xavier from Quigley, Jacob from Home, and Didi from Bluecove. Thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend!

Camofrog Moves In

Lately I’ve been letting my perfect peach trees die. Even though it’s a small change, the dead trees should fit in with the Halloween theme. I’ll replant them again in November.

Two dead trees in my New Leaf town of Forest.Last night, I spotted a new house plot. It belongs to Camofrog. I’m pretty sure he came from the town of Arrested, since I know he lived there (and I haven’t StreetPassed anyone lately or played with anyone other than Beth’s characters).

Sign: This spot reserved for Camofrog's new home. -Nook's HomesToday, Big Top asked me to play a game of hide-and-seek. I had ten minutes to find him, Molly, and Pashmina. I found Molly almost immediately, hiding behind Julian’s house.

Molly: Oh no! You found me!A few minutes later, I found Pashmina hiding behind a tree and Big Top hiding behind Pashmina’s house. As Big Top congratulated me on winning the game, I noticed that he has picked up Pashmina’s catchphrase.

Big Top: Hats off to you, I peed.I found the new house and went inside to meet Forest’s newest villager, Camofrog. He seemed to think he was playing hide-and-seek too!

Camofrog: Ah, Jeff! So you found me!
You’re not camouflaged indoors, you know.

Camofrog is alright, I guess. He’s not one of my favorites, but I don’t dislike him either. The only bad thing is that Forest is full once again, so I can’t accept any campers (or Lily from Acorn) now.

On my central bridge, I stopped to chat with Hamlet. It was an odd conversation…

Hamlet: Old dudes at construction sites are the coolest, aren't they?

Hamlet: The kind of manual labor they do... It makes my muscles tingle just thinking about it!
What a curious comment.

So, let me get this straight. Hamlet watches old men at construction sites and it makes his muscles tingle? Uhm, okay… That may be too much information. I don’t know if I’ll ever think of Hamlet the same.

Meanwhile, Pashmina was fishing…but not catching anything. Apparently she zones out while watching her bobber–even forgetting to breathe! And then she…well, you know.

Pashmina: Sometimes I hold my breath while watching my bobber without even realizing it... Gasp! I peed!And last but not least, I found that Bob was sick with a cold! I bought some medicine for him, so I hope he’ll get better soon. Make sure to take plenty of catnaps, Bob!

Bob flips as he takes some cold medicine.

My most recent dream visitor was Pearl from Myrtle, although Pashmina also mentioned Sylvi from Tailvill.
