Jeff's New Leaf Blog

When I played on Sunday, I found a letter from Gulliver in the mail. He sent me a sitar from his visit to India. I also had a letter from Jack, who sent me a bug mask. I decided to wear it for October.

While walking near Lolly’s house, I spotted a balloon present from across the river.

I tracked it down and found a balloon closet inside.

Monday was Explorer’s Day, and Isabelle was standing at the plaza to hand out sailboat models for the occasion.

Of course, there was also a face-cutout standee for the holiday. I stuck my face though it, even though I was still wearing my bug mask. I’m an explorer and a bug.

I took the sailboat model home and put it on display. I had an empty spot there next to Wisp’s lamp anyway.

Today, Boots told me that he did 10,000 squats this morning!

He needed some fruit to recover, so I gave him a perfect peach. He enjoyed it, and he rewarded me with a lovely love seat.

When I spoke with Molly, who was also in the same area (as you can see in that previous screenshot), she had a request for me: She had a gift for Boots, and she wanted me to deliver it to him!

That was an easy delivery. 😛 The gift was a jagged tank, which Boots put on right away. He rewarded me with his cherry. 🍒

But that raises an interesting question. If he already had a cherry, why was he so desperate for fruit a few moments before? 😛

Anyway, I found Al the gorilla over at the campsite. I’ve been seeing him lately in “Mario’s” ACCF town of Mushroom. (Keep an eye out for a new episode of Mario Plays ACCF soon.) But I have no room for him here.

Back outside, Jeremiah was talking about the foods of fall.

He called autumn the “snackiest” season. 😛

Cube asked to visit my house, so we arranged a time. He did show up one minute late, but I’ll forgive him this time. I showed him all six of my rooms, and waited until he was done.

He didn’t give me a gift during his visit, so he’ll probably send me something in the mail. To state the obvious: I hope it’s his photo!

I’ll see you all next time!

On Sunday, I did something I probably haven’t done in years: I popped a balloon with my net.

Unfortunately, it only had a balloon floor inside.

Over by the statue fountain, I found a lost item (a bag) on the ground.

I briefly got excited when Cube told me it belonged to him…but he only rewarded me with a royal shirt. Not his photo. What a royal pain. 😛

Today, I visited Molly and she asked me to bring Mira over to her house. As soon as I walked outside, I found Mira right there! I love easy requests. 😆

So we made the long, three-foot trek to Molly’s house and went inside.

Once inside, Mira asked Molly what was so important that she had to drag her “all the way” over to her house. 😛

Molly just wanted to return Mira’s pineapple bed that she borrowed. Who borrows a bed?

Mira took the item back, and she quickly went on her way.

Anyway, Molly rewarded me with a weight bench for helping her out.

Jeremiah said there was a rumor going around that he had a world-famous mixing bowl collection. I guess his supposed collection is bowling everyone over. 😛

Lolly asked me for some furniture, and I gave her a tall oombloid. She seemed to like it.

In return, she gave me a bunk bed. What’s with everyone passing around beds today?

Gulliver was down on the beach, and he was talking about curry and the Taj Mahal.

I knew he was headed to India, so he will send me a gift from there next time.

After selling my fossils and unwanted gifts, I returned home. But Rolf barged in to visit with me. He asked me an odd question…

He gave me a typewriter before making his escape. See you next time!

Last Tuesday (September 16th), Mira supposedly quoted a movie by saying “You’re no match for my saw shark tail attack!”

As interesting as that sounds, she was really just asking me to catch a saw shark for her. I politely declined the request.

Axel the elephant was camping at the campsite for (at least) the 2nd time. He’s kinda cute, but my town is full anyway.

I found a lost item (a mitten) on the ground, and I returned it to Hornsby. However, the reward he gave me was not very appealing.

As I was using the CAT machine outside of town hall, I witnessed a balloon present alter its path. It was traveling west to east, but then it took a sharp turn north (to go around my flower clock) before turning again to the east!

Gulliver was down on the beach, and he was talking about eating some hot-and-spicy kimchi. He also mentioned tae kwon do, so I knew he was headed to South Korea. (Need a Gulliver Guide?)

The next day, he sent me a samgyetang in the mail.

Yesterday (September 20th), the Bug-Off was held. I again played too late to participate, but I saw on the bulletin board that Jeremiah was the winner. Congrats, Jeremiah!

Over on my central bridge, Cube was standing at an angle when he inquired about my samgyetang.

He wanted it, and he said he’d give me a mint shirt in return. I somewhat reluctantly agreed to the trade. 😛

Today, I returned a lost item to its owner, Inkwell. It was his missing magazine.

I bet he could work for a printing company if he wanted. After all, I’ve heard he can ink well.

Rolf asked me for some furniture to replace his spade tee, so I bought a lucky frog at the Emporium for him. He initially called it an excellent choice…

But then he said it’s something that has to be displayed on a table. Oops.

However, he wasn’t actually turning it down. He still accepted it, he just wanted to complain about it a bit. 😆 He rewarded me with a lovely wall.

Boots asked me for a house centipede, so I had to make a few trips around town to bang some rocks. I eventually caught what I needed, and Boots was happy. He gave me a jungle-camo tee in return.

That’s all for now, but I’ll be back again with another entry by the end of the month. Never Stop Crossing!
