Last night, I finally got Rolf to ping me. He was going to move out on August 26th, but of course I changed his mind for him.
And this morning, I tracked down Joan so that I could buy some turnips. She was selling them for 108 bells each, which is high, but I still bought 3,100 of them as planned. That’s enough to fill the three pages of my storage that I’ve cleared out, plus one bundle to keep in my pockets. That one will serve as a reminder that I need to keep checking turnip prices all week.
Near my house, I found a gem rock. Unfortunately, my Re-Tail is still full of gems from last time, so I just left these here for now.
I somehow offended Sprinkle, without even trying. She said I looked surprised that she had a shower. I just figured she would run through a sprinkler instead.
It was quite a sunny day in Forest, and Octavian seemed to be enjoying it. I actually thought he’d prefer rain.
Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Pikachu from the town of Pancake was my most recent dream visitor. That’s an interesting combination.
After the sun went down, I returned to my game to watch some fireworks.
I spoke with Octavian again, and he told me he enjoyed fireworks more than he could explain.
I also talked with Isabelle, who was hanging out at the event plaza. She gave me a flower bopper to wear.
I put it on and enjoyed some more of the fireworks. Here you can also see my town tree.
I finished up my night by giving away five pink roses to MistyIce. I delivered them to her town Tia Time.
I didn’t open my gate tonight, but I will be opening next Sunday (August 31st) for the final fireworks festival of the year.
Once you have it, you’ll be able to order more at any time through the Nooklings’ catalog. It costs 4,800 bells.
When I checked my mail, I found a letter from Madisyn. She thinks she’s going to steal Agent S and Big Top from me. HA! Never! You must be Mad.
As I made my way around town to water flowers, Aurora asked me to play a game of hide-and-seek. I agreed to play, and she gave me ten minutes to find her, Rolf, and Big Top.
The first villager I found was Big Top. He was hiding behind his own house!
About two minutes later, I found Rolf hiding behind the zen bell. He’s lucky I didn’t ring the bell in his ear!
I then found Aurora hiding behind Drago’s house.
I won the game, and Aurora said I deserve a washbasin. Is she trying to tell me something?
A couple of my villagers have told me that Rolf plans on moving out of town! But Rolf has not pinged me yet, so I haven’t been able to tell him to stay. I’m going to keep looking for him until I make sure his cage is locked up nice and tight.
But when I told her to come over, she didn’t want to come right away. She wanted to schedule a time. That would mean keep playing the game for another hour, or turn it off and risk forgetting. I just told her to forget the whole thing. Maybe another time, penguin.
We then hopped back to Forest. Wendy wanted to buy some bushes that were on sale in my island gift shop. We also went on a scavenger hunt tour.
We earned a gold Tortimer award and 13 medals for our hard work. After returning to the mainland, I used the megaphone in Wendy’s ear.
She started blowing her tweeter at me, and I pushed her off the dock. But before she fell into the water, I saw her swimming in mid-air for a second or two!
We then did a little swimming and diving before I ended the session.
Just a reminder that Saturday is K.K. night! Be sure to head up to Club LOL to get your free song from the singing dog. (And also, get one step closer to the K.K. badges if you don’t have them already). I’ll be back with more tomorrow! See you then!
It was Rolf’s birthday, so I paid him a visit. Octavian was also there, helping him celebrate.
Rolf asked if I brought him a gift…of course I did! A brand new Eiffel Tower! He didn’t seem exactly thrilled with it, but he was trying to be polite about it.
Before I left his house, I danced the Shrunk Funk Shuffle. Happy birthday, Rolf!
After making my walk around town, I went up to Main Street. In the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Sophie from Starfall was my most recent dream visitor. And in the post office, I deposited some money and my bank account balance topped 18 million bells.
Shortly after 10:00, I opened my gate for Friday Night Forest. Madisyn came over for a visit.
I noticed that Rolf’s party was over with…at least while the gate was open. I visited with Octavian, and he asked if I have ever been overseas. I said no, and he said he hasn’t traveled much either. And yet his house is filled with space items, including a space shuttle, UFO, and a lunar lander. You can’t fool me, alien!
Up on Main Street, Rory immediately got defensive. He told me he’s not a criminal, but I know he’s lion.
Madisyn and I went to the Roost to get some coffee; I got mine to go.
After catching some bugs and fish, we started to do some glitching.
I also sat on the bench…and took up the whole thing.
I eventually let her sit down for a moment, but we soon resumed glitching.
We also glitched onto the tracks, and then off the bridge.
But before we could get down into the void, Madisyn had to leave. So I ended the session and reopened the gate. After a little while, Jessica came over to visit. I was expecting her to bring food, but she said she already ate it. So I got my axe out.
Of course, it wasn’t long before we started beating each other with our hammers.
Jessica could only withstand so much brain damage, so she stepped off the dock. She then started to go fishing to catch a shark…a shark that I didn’t see. I thought it was just the head injury making her see things…but she actually caught a shark. Fittingly enough, it was a hammerhead! She then suggested that maybe I was the one with the brain injury, since I didn’t see the shark in the first place. So I decided maybe I should call a dock-tor.
But after that, we went on a balloon-popping tour…and she beat me. I usually do really good at the balloon tours, but the awful bridge placement ended up costing me in the end.
Jessica had to go at this point. So we ended up completely tied on the night: One win, one loss, one draw. We returned to Forest, where I gave her a goodbye hammer smack to the head.
I then ended the session for the night. Have a good weekend, everyone! I’ll be back with another blog entry tomorrow, so I hope to see you then!
