Buying Turnips

This morning, Joan was selling turnips for 99 bells each. I bought 3,400 of them.

Joan: The asking price is 99 bells per turnip. What do you think, kiddo?Over at my campsite, Nana the monkey was camping out. I don’t mind my town being full, because I didn’t really want Nana moving in anyway. She would drive me bananas.

Nana: Oh, hello! I hope it's all right that I set up camp here.Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Shaina from the town of Mytube was my most recent dream visitor.

My page of storage that I used for perfect peaches was getting a bit crowded, since I put any extra turnips there too. So when Madisyn messaged me, I asked if I could sell peaches in her town. She said yes, and I sold six baskets for 162,000 bells.

Reese: Well then...I could probably part with 162,000 bells for all of it, if that sounds OK with you?Madisyn also wanted to shop in my town, so I opened my gate for her. She has a new look now:

Madisyn's new outfit.When I put my face in the tombstone cutout, she started dancing to celebrate my death.

R.I.P. JeffShe didn’t stay long, though. After she finished shopping, I ended the session.

One of the people I let sell turnips on Friday left me a tip, even though I asked them not to. So I had to give that money away. 😛 The winner of my giveaway was Zelda from Hyrule, so I took the money (and a bonus blue balloon) to her town. Congrats, Zelda!

Delivering a prize to Zelda.

Gala’s Pic

Drago gave me a lady palm today, and I didn’t think much of it. Until he said it reminded him of me! What?!

Drago: As soon as I saw it, I totally thought of you!After 8:00, I went up to Club LOL to catch a performance from K.K. the singing dog. I let him choose the song and he played “Only Me” for…only me.

K.K.: Enough tuning--let's groove. This next one is for you, Jeff. It's called Only Me.Madisyn was online, and she asked if she could come over to shop. So I opened my gate for her, even though I was dead.

Poking my face through my gravestone standee.After she shopped, she invited me over to her town for a bit. She told me that Porter said she’s eligible to upgrade her train station now, so congrats to her! She also paid off a house loan to expand her upstairs, which will give Diver Dan more room.

Madisyn: He's a bae.  Jeff: I sea.Madisyn was also happy that Ava was packed up in boxes and ready to move out of her town.

Jeff: LESS CHIKN.Outside, Madisyn tried to plant a pitfall seed for me. But it backfired. U MAD, BRO?

Madisyn: WTFFFFFFFFFWe went up to Club LOL and I was going to request a song, until I realized it wasn’t Saturday in her town. Her town date is in early December, I believe. So instead, DJ KK was in there. The good news was that Ankha was in there too dancing like her mummy.

Ankha: Huh? What am I doing? What, don't you know a dancing cat when you see one?
♫ Dance like an Egyptian… ♪

Before long, Madisyn had to go and she ended the session. I put the game away, until I remembered that Octavian had asked me for an ocean fish! So I started the game up again and snagged a sea bass for him. But before I got back to his house, Gala pinged me. She asked for some fruit, and I gave her a perfect pear. She loved it so much that she gave me her villager picture! Yes!

Gala: Take my Gala's pic as a token of my appreciation!I put it in my house, on the fireplace to cook. I read the picture and it had her favorite quote on it, “Still waters run deep.” Yeah, and still mud means you’re in deep…trouble.

Quote on Gala's pic: Still waters run deep.When I took the sea bass to Octavian, he was surprisingly excited about it. He rewarded me by giving me a desk light in return.

Octavian: What? A sea bass?! Awesome!

Big Top’s Birthday

I saw an unusual item in Re-Tail today; it was Octavian’s Gaudi’s lizard. I made sure to buy it.

Reese: Oh, the Gaudi's lizard? This item belongs to Octavian from here in Forest.When I checked the turnip prices, I was shocked to see Reese was paying 524 bells each for them!

Reese: Currently, I'm buying each turnip for 524 bells.However, I had already sold my turnips earlier in the week for less than half that price.

I went in to visit Big Top, and he quickly informed me that it was his birthday! Uhh…of course it is! I wouldn’t forget about you! I’ve got the memory of an elephant! 😀

Big Top: Welcome, Mr. J! I'm glad you can be here to celebrate my birthday with me!I had just the gift for him. I’ve been saving it for him for a long time! 😉 It was a Gaudi’s lizard! 😀

Big Top: A Gaudi's lizard?! Whoa! I did NOT expect this.He said he didn’t expect it, but then he called it an awesome present. So that was good to hear. Drago was also there to help Big Top celebrate.

Drago: Today's a day for celebrating Big Top! Hip hip hooray!Over by my metal bench, Sprinkle told me that she was planning on moving out on October 7th. It was like a gift from above! Oh wait, there actually was a gift from above flying by.

Sprinkle: Hey there! I know it's totally out of the blue, and I hope I don't shock you. But I'm thinking of moving.I kid, I kid. I’m not ready for Sprinkle to move out just yet, so I asked her to stick around. I still want her picture first before I let her go.

I had watered about half of my flowers when the clock struck 5:00 and it started raining.

Here comes the rain.Oops. When I first started up the game and saw the clouds, I thought to myself: “I should check the instrument shelter to see if rain was coming.” But I completely forgot about it. Oh well, at least it still saved me some time.

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Carine from Hawaii was my most recent dream visitor.

I posted about my high turnip prices on Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, and the Friend Code Exchange page. But only one person (Fortune from Diadem) came over to sell turnips, as of 8 p.m.*

Fortune sells some turnips at Re-Tail.As a reminder, there is no Friday Night Forest tonight. But I’ll be back with another blog entry tomorrow, so I hope to see you then! Have a good weekend and thanks for visiting JVGS!

*Update: Later on, Samantha from Hoplite and Nickie from Candylan also sold turnips.
