Back to Work

If you’ve tried working at the cafe for the past week, you’ve probably been disappointed to find that the game wouldn’t let you. That’s because the game gives players a full week (October 1-7) to meet Jack and agree to help him out on Halloween. Once you speak with him, he disappears until the 31st, but the game still treats that full week as event days. But fortunately, today is October 8th, and everything is back to normal. I was able to work at the Roost today.

Tiffany: I'll have a coffee, please. Kilimanjaro roast!Along with that, the embargo on special visitors has ended as well. Gulliver was on my beach today. He asked me about the Manneken Pis, and mentioned he’d be ashamed to do what the statue does in public.

Gulliver: I'd be a little ashamed to be seen doing something like he does in public. He sure is gutsy for a kid!He will be sending me a gift (the aforementioned manneken pis) from Belgium in the mail tomorrow.

I talked to Tabby, and she said she was hungry for fruit. A cherry, to be specific.

Tabby: I've got a big problem, master. I'm hungry for fruit, but I don't want people to see me shake a tree!So I reached into my pockets and pulled one out for her. She rewarded me with a school desk. Next, I spoke with Teddy. He was telling me about a story in which he’s a prince from another planet. Is he Teddy Prince Jr.?

Teddy: According to the story, I'm a prince from another planet! That's a tough spot to be put in!Up on Main Street, Rolf was telling me about how lonely the shopping district is. I guess he didn’t notice Harry standing right next to him?

Rolf: The shopping district is really lonely this time of day. Kind of expected, but that doesn't mean I like it!My latest dream visitor was Melissa from newleaf. So hello to Melissa if you’re reading this! And thanks for visiting my dream town! 🙂

I checked out the Happy Homes Showcase and found a new SpotPass home there. It belonged to Covet from Latte. Her main room had the mermaid furniture, along with Katie’s pic.

Katie's pic is displayed on top of a mermaid table.Covet has a lot of popular furniture sets that many people…covet. Here, you can see the sloppy set.

The sloppy furniture set in the SpotPass home of Covet from Latte.She also had a trophy room with many of her awards and villager pictures. Wait. JAMBETTE?? Sorry Covet, but that’s no accomplishment. That belongs in a horror-themed room, along with my Tabby pics.

Covet's trophy room, which also included some villager pics.That wrapped up my day in New Leaf, but I do want to share this video with you. It’s a slideshow of pictures taken during the month of September. If you’re a regular reader, you’ll remember many of these pictures and the stories behind them. The video is set to Stale Cupcakes. Enjoy!
