This morning, Reese was buying turnips for 437 bells each! So I sold my 1,200 turnips for a cool 524,400 bells.
Unfortunately, the prices dropped to 138 bells in the afternoon. Otherwise, I would have posted on Twitter and Tumblr to let people come and sell their turnips. Anyway, I put my money into the bank and my balance topped 8 million bells for the first time.
When I returned home to check my mail, I had a letter from Gulliver and a letter from the snowboy. I got two gifts, one hot and one cold: A hula doll and a snowman wardrobe.
I then went to say goodbye to Tammy. Today is her last day in town.
My friend Tiffiny was looking to get signatures for a petition, and of course she needed to come and get Tammy as well. So I opened my gate for her, and Tom came over for a short visit too.
After Tiffiny claimed Tammy, the yellow bear cub confirmed that she is headed to Tiffiny’s town Auctus.
After Tiffiny was done collecting signatures, I ended the session. I then made a quick delivery, taking two queens to Ash. They were the last pieces she needed for her chess set. I couldn’t help but notice her brick paths look so much better than mine.
I turned the game off for a while, but I later returned. Today’s fake rock had given me a gold nugget, but Skye wasted no time in asking for it. She offered her red warm-up suit for it. That’s a ridiculously one-sided trade, but I accepted it because I want to make her happy so I can get her picture at some point.
Up in the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Racquel from Catville was my most recent dream visitor. In T&T Emporium (Timmy & Tommy, not Tiffiny & Tom), I bought some medicine for Big Top, who was still sick again today.
I spoke with Teddy, and he was boasting about his “jaw-dropping physique.”
I tried making a snowboy, but failed this time. A couple weeks ago, I was doing so well with them, but I seem to have lost my touch. Anyway, that pretty much ended my night in Forest. But I’m going to talk a little bit about villagers.
With Tammy leaving, I don’t really have any villagers left that I dislike. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to keep my current villagers forever. It’s still fun to get new villagers in town, to keep things from getting too stale. And this is one reason I really don’t want people going to any trouble in getting villagers for me. I’m completely happy with letting random animals come and go.
If I get an occasional animal I don’t like, so be it. It can still be fun to pitfall them and hammer them if they need a good beatdown. I think a town full of “dreamies” would get boring after a while. Not to mention it would be a pain to always have to keep them from moving out. So I’m looking forward to getting another villager when the time comes. As long as it’s not Jambette. 😛
