Jeff's New Leaf Blog

This morning, Molly told me she was moving out of town on October 31st. Losing Molly would make for a scary Halloween indeed! So I clipped her wings so she couldn’t fly away.

I then tracked down Joan, who was selling turnips for 101 bells each. I bought 3,400 of them.

I realized that I hadn’t picked up the new DLC item, even though it’s been available for several days already. So I went up to the post office and asked Pelly about it, and she handed me the Scorpio lamp. Don’t forget to pick yours up, if you haven’t already!

I put it in my house, and it looks pretty cool! It’s purple and the tail lights up when it’s turned on. My only complaint is that you can’t place it on a table.

I had yet another camper at the campsite today, a bird-brain named Cranston. I did not ask him to move in.

I ran into Rolf, who was enjoying a sit on my metal bench. He asked me to join him…kind of.

So I sat down for a moment with my favorite tiger.

I wrapped up my day with a final trip up to Main Street. I updated my dream town, and Luna told me that Koinu from Wakaiton was my most recent dream visitor.

Molly asked me for an orange today, and I went above and beyond: I gave her a perfect orange. Well, it may have been a bit squishy, but it was still perfect. She loved it so much that she rewarded me with her IV drip. Wait, what? Why? Don’t you need this? It’s still attached to your wing!

Over by my metal bench, Rolf commented on the new beautiful town ordinance. He said it makes the town look stinkin’ nice. That doesn’t exactly sound like a compliment there, tiger.

Drago told me that he heard about the “butterfly effect,” but he was confused about what it means. So he asked me to catch a butterfly for him, so he could stare at it until he figures it out.

I found a monarch butterfly right outside his house, so it was an easy task to complete. In return, Drago gave me a canary shirt before joking that he’ll have to bug me for help again sometime.

I went up to the Dream Suite to update my dream town, and Luna told me that Annabel from Soma was my most recent dream visitor. And in the Emporium, Agent S asked me to buy the whole store for her!

Agent S! You should be happy just to stuff a few nuts in your face. Don’t be a greedy squirrel!

After that, I returned to the Dream Suite. Since Halloween is nearly upon us, I decided to visit the horror themed Town of the Artist for a new Dream Suite Adventure. So you can read about my trip at that link. Be warned, though: It is a bit more graphic (read bloody) than Aika Village.

After I was done dreaming, I stopped up at Club LOL tonight. I asked K.K. to sing a random song, and he performed K.K. Rockabilly for me.

Soon after starting up the game today, Tom messaged me and told me he was opening his gate. I haven’t visited his town in a long time, so I decided to drop by Tomville. His friends Lily and Pichi were also there. We helped him water his flowers.

Tom’s house looks a bit haunted. Have you been hearing chains rattling in the attic, Tom?

I stopped to have a little chat with my friend Savannah the zebra.

And Tom dug some holes and glitched onto a house. He then fell off into one of the holes. I tried to kick some dirt in his face, but it wouldn’t let me.

We had a small hammer fight, but unfortunately I didn’t have my hammer with me. I usually leave it on the ground by my town tree for dream visitors. The next time I see one for sale on the island, I should buy it to have one to keep with me (attached to a letter). Anyway, Tom has a large checkerboard of patterns, alternating with my Wii U logo (available here) and a Toon Link pattern. This was the only picture I got of all four of us today.

Tom’s shop was closed, so we protested by trying to break the windows with our shovels. It may sound violent, but the Nooklings have shovel-proof glass for some reason. They must not trust us! Hmmph!

Shortly after that, we got disconnected. Poor Tom had to water his flowers all over again. I didn’t return to Tomville though, because I still needed to do my normal tasks around my own town. Big Top tried to tell me he was moving out of town on October 29th, but of course I made him stay.

I also found Saharah nearby, so I hired her and made the short walk back to my house. She put in a groovy wall and some slate flooring.

I didn’t think it was groovy at all, so I wiped the slate clean and went back to how it already was. I went to put something in storage, and then Drago barged in. These surprise visitors always seem to strike right after Saharah leaves! Saharah must call them afterwards and say “He’s home. Now’s your chance!”

I sat down until Drago left, and then I resumed my walk around town. Curlos was camping out at the campsite today. I’ve had a lot of campers lately! Unfortunately, none of them have been animals I’ve wanted to move in.

Over by the river behind the town tree, I found a lost item.

So I began asking my villagers about it. It didn’t belong to Octavian, but my 8-legged friend asked me for a dragonfly. I tracked down a red dragonfly for him, and he rewarded me with a tropical tank. Even though that might sound like a fish tank of tropical fish, it’s just a tank top.

After asking six of my villagers, I finally found the owner of the lost book: Drago. I wonder why he would need a book called “How to Train Your Dragon.” Anyway, he rewarded me with a blue letter jacket.

After that, I went up to the Dream Suite and updated my dream town. Luna told me that Kaetia from Starfall was my most recent dream visitor.

That wrapped up my day, but I have one last picture to show you. I used the Animal Crossing Plaza on Wii U to take a look at my current New Leaf villagers.

Have a good weekend, everyone!
