The other day, I met my newest villager, Pompom.
Great. Just what I needed, another duck. That’s three of them now: Pompom, Pate, and Miranda. And I don’t particularly care for any of them. And other than Miranda, who lived in Forest years ago, I don’t really know them all that well. So when Lily asked me if I noticed Pate and Pompom were close, my response was “Who?”
I’ve been putting much more time into New Leaf than City Folk, and it feels like I don’t even know many of my ACCF villagers very well. Of course it doesn’t help that my long-time, favorite villagers have mostly skipped town.
Anyway, I watered my flowers tonight since there was no snow. Nate was out, talking about how a dung beetle sounded so good that he wants to eat one!
I think he likes the dung more than the beetle. He then tried to say that he was just impersonating Nat, the Bug-Off host. Yeah, right. Nice try, Nate.
A message posted on the bulletin board announced that Miranda’s six-incher won the fishing tournament.
Saharah was in town tonight, looking for old carpeting.
So I began asking my villagers for carpeting as I made my way around town. I saw a snowball on the ground, so I turned into a human dung beetle and pushed it into the river. Generally, I don’t bother making snowmen in City Folk any more, and I can’t resist the desire to destroy the snowballs in one way or another.
I was up on the cliff when I saw the other snowball. I pushed it to the edge and, to my surprise, Lily was right underneath me. The snowball literally hit her in the head and then bounced to the left! I wish I had been recording a video!
Anyway, I finished asking all nine of my villagers for old carpet, and Nate was the only one who gave me some.
However, I had two of them in storage. So I was able to take them all to Saharah and she gave me Saharah’s desert. It actually looks pretty good, so I’m going to hang onto it.
It was snowing tonight, so I didn’t have to water my flowers. When I spoke to Pate, she told me she was going to drink nothing but root beer for the rest of her life. Sounds like a plan.
And I found today’s pitfall seed. Well…actually I think it found me.
