Late last night, Wendy invited me over to her town because there was a meteor shower there. So we watched the shooting stars and made some wishes.
Then today, I got a letter in the mail from Wishy. He (or she?) told me my wish would be granted, and there was also a gift attached to the letter. It was a nine lamp.
I bumped into Aurora outside, and she offered to sell me a conveyor-belt sushi.
That’s the item I just saw in Kate’s SpotPass home on Thursday. Even though I have no interest in sushi, I could still pretend it’s a race track. 😛 But Aurora wanted 4,320 bells for it. Sorry, but no. But as soon as I turned her offer down, she offered to give it to me for free! How sweet of her!
Today was the last day I could sell my turnips, so I went into Re-Tail to check the prices. Only 49 bells! That’s really bad, because I paid 107 bells each for them! Wendy checked the price in her town, and it wasn’t much better: 58 bells.
As bad as that was, I was out of time and needed to sell. So I got 11,600 bells the turnips, which is roughly half of what I paid. Oh well, you can’t win on the stalk market every week.
Wendy also stopped by my town briefly. I showed her my conveyor-belt sushi:
After I ended the multiplayer session, I went into town hall to check my town status. It was still perfect. But to my surprise, today was the 15th day of perfect town status!
So I got the golden watering can! Now I can water in style!
And I did one last thing for tonight: I decided to install the video screen. I put in the southwest part of town, a bit east of the park and north of my ramp.
I’ll be back tomorrow with more. Tomorrow, I’ll be opening my gate for an hour or so, probably around 7:00 p.m. Eastern time. If the time changes, I will post it on my Twitter page.
I spotted Phineas in town today, and he gave me the Bronze Medalist badge for winning a lot of medals on island tours.
And as I was talking to Phineas, I saw Benedict steaming mad in the background. Apparently he just had an argument with Rory.
In the Roost, I think somebody passed gas as I was making coffee… I’m pretty sure it was Brewster.
Over at the campsite, there was a camper in town. In fact, there were two: Astrid and her child. When I first spoke to her, she started applauding. But by clapping, she was actually smacking her baby in the face repeatedly! It was pretty hilarious actually.
And outside, Rory suggested a new public works project! It’s a video screen.
Based on the preview in town hall, it seems to alternate between pictures of Tortimer, Tom Nook, and Lyle. Not very exciting, but still better than Grease.
I also saw that Saharah was in town. She had “many carpets for the petting of cars.” Alrighty then.
I had her make over my room, and she put in a ceramic tile floor and an arched window wall.
The arched windows reminded me a bit of the sanctuary in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, but that’s probably just because I’m currently 
When I went back outside, Tex told me that he heard other people were calling me killer. He asked if he could call me killer too. Sure, if you want to be on my hit list.
I went to work a shift at the cafe, but Rooster wouldn’t let me because my pockets were too full.
So he told me to lighten my load and then come back…
I ate a mango that was in my pockets and then I was able to work. I earned superb coffee beans once again today. When I went outside, Tabby asked me what I thought of her fashion. I responded with “what is it?” and she wasn’t very happy about that.
Next, I went up to Main Street. I saw my former villager Harry there, so I said hello.
After having some fossils assessed by Blathers and updating my dream, I went into the post office. Today is the first of the month, and that means new DLC is available! August is fireworks month in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, so this month’s item is a fireworks table.
I also went into T.I.Y., and the Nooklings have started selling fireworks as well. Today they had this fountain firework.
I bought it and then returned to town. I stopped in my house to take a look at the fireworks table.
And over in my park, I set down the fountain firework to watch it go.
It’s pretty cool; it lasted about ten seconds or so. After that, I went up to the Happy Homes Showcase. I had heard there was another SpotPass home sent out by Nintendo, so I went to check it out. It belonged to Kate from the town of “Lizards!” It’s a very nice home, but I was a bit creeped out by her mannequin.
I guess that’s just a pacifier, but the pacifier itself looks a bit like a shrunken face. Anyway, Kate’s kitchen was far less creepy.
Another room of hers had what I thought was a slow-moving race track. But it’s actually a conveyor-belt sushi! I’d rather have a race track.
And her mermaid room looked nice. That must have cost her a whole lot of medals.
Later on, my friend Wendy came over to shop. Tabby had asked me for some furniture, so I caught a fish for her. As I gave it to her, Wendy burned her with a sparkler.
The interesting thing is that Wendy’s Super T&T had two firework items, the fountain firework and a sparkler. But my T.I.Y. (which is the next step up) only had one firework for sale! What’s up with that?
Just a reminder that I will not be opening my New Leaf gate this Friday. (The first Friday of each month will be my ACCF night instead). But I’ll still have a new blog entry tomorrow, so be sure to check back. Goodbye for now!
