Yesterday was Big Top’s birthday, so I paid him a visit to help him celebrate.
He asked if I brought him a present, and I gave him a customized modern wardrobe. He didn’t say much about it; I don’t think he liked it.
But his buddy (and fellow elephant) Dizzy was also there to party with him.
Outside, Pashmina was talking about the round topiary. Specifically, she was wondering who takes care of it and maintains it so perfectly.
Don’t ask too many questions, goat girl. It’s just a video game.
After catching a cricket, I saw something I wasn’t expecting. A silver slingshot floated by on two balloons, temporarily blocking my view of myself (and my cricket).
When I got the flashy-flower sign the other day, the Emporium was closed. So I didn’t get to look in the catalog to see if it could be ordered. But I gave it a look now, and it can indeed be ordered (for 1,200 bells). That’s good news, because now I don’t feel obligated to keep it in storage for eternity. 😛
Today, I did not play early enough in the day to buy turnips.
Peck asked me for some fruit, and I gave him a perfect cherry. He enjoyed it, and he rewarded me with a gently used king. Gently used?
Annalise was camping at the campsite today. I’m not really that familiar with her…but my town was full anyway, so I couldn’t have invited her in even if I had wanted to.
Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Teddy from Wisteria was my most recent dream visitor. Yesterday’s visitor was Madelene from Barkbank.
Daisy told me she recently saw a picture of a beautiful centipede. Wait, what? Anyway, she told me she was now obsessed with centipedes (worst hobby ever) and she wanted me to catch one for her.
I agreed to help her out, but I soon came to regret it. I was banging rocks all across town, over and over again. But no centipedes were showing up! It must have taken a dozen trips around town before I finally found one for her. And when I took it back to her, she only gave me an aurora knit shirt! All that work for a shirt?
I decided to decorate my main room for Halloween. I quickly discovered how awkward it is moving furniture around in New Leaf, compared to 
Since it’s October now, I decided to change my path back to the black/orange bricks that I used last year. Tonight, the skies were clear and there was a meteor shower! I stopped to wish on a few shooting stars.
I ran into Jack himself! He’s out to recruit helpers for Halloween.
He gave me a bug mask to get me started, so I went ahead and put it on.
The monster hats will also be available at Able Sisters for 1,031 bells apiece. Today, they had the ghost mask.
Since the game gives Jack a full week to find helpers (even though he will only show up once), October 1st through 7th are considered event days. So you can not work at the cafe until October 8th.
I tried to make a new pattern for Halloween, a jack-o’-lantern face.
I also put up my gravestone pattern on my face-cutout standee. If you want the pattern, check out the 
My recent dream visitors include Sam from Pallet (Tuesday), Amanda from Newtown (Wednesday), and Lizzie from Skyway (today). Thanks for visiting!
