I don’t know what happened to make my articulation skills hit a 100% but I found myself saying this (regarding the “latinx” situation but it applies to so much more) and I think it’s important to share it

I’ve been thinking about restarting my ACNL village lately. I love Luna, and I’ve had a lot of fun blogging about it, but honestly I’m just so far behind. Like, in my town right now, it’s Christmas. CHRISTMAS. I’m a total trash animal.
A lot of my favorite villagers have moved away, and more than anything, I feel disconnected from the town, now. Plus, I never updated my file, because I wanted to catch-up my game with real time. But I never did. And the time traveling is starting to feel tedious. And I want to play with the new features. And blah.
I’m also (potentially) about to move to a new town in real life, and I was thinking it might be cute to restart my file at the same time. So…yeah. Not even sure why I’m posting this. I don’t think I’m looking for validation from my fellow Mayors or anything. Just shouting into the void, I guess.
I hope your villages are sunny and warm, your town fills with hybrids, and all of your dreamies hop the next train to your town.
After Dizzy’s birthday party, I ran a few errands around town. I bought a book from Marshal at Re-Tail, I stopped by the Able Sister’s to watch Sable sew a dress (my dress, apparently), and then I went to the museum to get some culture and stuff.
Today was Dizzy’s birthday, and boy, did we have a blast! I planted a garden all around his house, sent him a present and card in the mail, and brought him another gift I knew he could use. He told me not too long ago that he needed one, so I’m not sure why he didn’t seem excited, but I guess that’s Dizzy for you. :)
