One Month Photo

Eloise was crafting in her house today, and she gave me a DIY recipe for a bamboo stool. To my surprise, it was one that I didn’t have already. Even though I knew I was missing out on snooty reactions for most of my first year with the game, I was also missing out on snooty DIY recipes!

I then wrapped up a cool windflower wreath I crafted and gave it to Eloise. I was shocked when she gave me her photo in return!

Eloise: How can I thank you... Ah! Why don't you take this reward of Eloise's photo?

She has only lived in town for one month (to the day), so this is very quick to be earning her photo! I thought I got Apollo’s photo quick (7 weeks), but this is even faster. Wow, I think I just got lucky this time. 😛

Anyway, I put it in my house (but not on the wall just yet, since I’d have to rearrange them all). Her favorite quote is “An elephant never forgets.”

Looking at Eloise's photo.

When I ran into Bones, he wanted to move out of town! He literally just moved out of my ACCF town yesterday, so there is no way I’m letting this Bones go anytime soon.

Bones: Huh? You want me to stay? Well, spicy chocolate pie! I had no idea!
Spicy chocolate pie?

I visited Tybalt, and he was sleeping standing up…while holding a can of orange soda! Now that is hard to do! 😛

That’s all for now. Have a great Memorial Day tomorrow, for those in (or from) the U.S.! I’ll see you all next time.

Self-Massaging Tiger

Yesterday, I found Gulliver washed up on the beach. I grabbed my shovel and dug up the five pieces of his communicator for him.

I found a lazy villager’s lost book on the ground, and I returned it to Bones. It was his diary, and he gave me an apron for returning it.

Bones: Whoa! It's my diary! I thought it was gone for good!

I updated my dream in the afternoon, so it’s nice and sunny now if you’d like to visit. Fair warning, though: It may be the last time I update the dream with the Mario obstacle course intact.

Today, I received my thank-you letter in the mail from Gulliver. He sent me another hula doll, and this one is red. I placed it near the blue one just outside of the Super Mario Sunshine area.

Tybalt was talking about he loves massages to ease his sore muscles. But since he’s trained to give massages, he can massage himself!

Tybalt: You know what I mean! And in my case, I'm trained in massage, so I can just give myself one.

He must be really flexible!

Tybalt: It's like I'm training for the massage, and I'm massaging for the training!

K.K. Slider was at the plaza, so I took the time to enjoy his show. He performed K.K. Disco for me, Apollo, Apple, and Midge.

After the show, I earned 2,000 Nook Miles for attending my 60th show.

See you next time!

Full of Emotions

Eloise taught me her signature reaction today: Love! ❤️

I learned the love reaction! Be still, my beating heart!

Now that I’ve finally learned to love (like the tin man), I am full of emotions. Or at least, my reaction list is full. 😛 I have all 59 reactions that are currently in the game, although I imagine Nintendo may add more in the future.

When I visited Apollo, he started ranting about the syrup that they put on snow cones! He said that all the different colored syrups taste the same. He thinks they’re all banana flavored!

Apollo: The syrup that they put on snow cones all tastes the same! They've been lyin' to you with those colors!

But then, he mentioned that his doctor thinks his sense of taste is off and needs to be tested. So I guess that explains that. 😛

Apollo: Unrelated, the doc says I gotta get my sense of taste checked out one of these days...
Yeah…check your sense of taste, bud.

My replacement bridge was completed yesterday, but I didn’t actually remember it until today. So I missed the completion ceremony; it was too late to do it today. But here’s a look at the bridge that’s now made of stone instead of logs.

My newly replaced bridge.

I updated my dream town tonight, although it was done in the evening. So it’s not exactly sunny in town. But still, it lets you see my new UFO area if you’d like to check that out. The dream address is 6717-1633-3682. And I will try to update it again during daylight hours very soon, perhaps within the next day or two.

Later on, I spotted a rare sight outside of town hall: Four villagers singing together! Apollo, Tia, Apple, and Tybalt all sang in unison. How cute! 🙂

Flick was in town, and I sold him eight bugs for a total of 39,000 bells before wrapping up my game for the night. As a reminder, there is no Friday Night Forest this week.
