Dear Diary, Well, this week brought Turkey Day but I decided to give it a miss this year. I had enough to deal with already, so I didn’t need more stress and obligations. Hopefully, Franklin was able to actually cook food for everyone on the island this year without me…

This week I went to see Trolls Band Together because I was pleasantly surprised by the second Trolls movie so I thought why not? I’m also balancing three games simultaneously every day so I can play Animal Crossing and Disney Dreamlight Valley while still making some progress in Spider-Man 2. So no Super Mario RPG remake for me… at least not yet! And I’m also tempted by another new (old) console release! It’s too much!

Dear Diary, Well, the trees finally turned proper colors and the leaves started falling, but of course, I’m not bothering to collect any maple leaves because I don’t have any new seasonal DIY recipes to make. And I doubt I’ll discover any new ones before it starts to snow. …

This week I enjoyed The Marvels in 3D but the real reason this episode is a bit longer than usual is because I bought Disney Dreamlight Valley and so I have a lot to say about it! Sorry!

Dear Diary, The leaves still aren’t falling, but the mushrooms are everywhere! I don’t bother picking them every day so they’re kind of multiplying. Thankfully they don’t seem to stick around permanently, otherwise the island would be overrun!

This week I went to see The Holdovers, which was a terrific Christmas movie, and I’ve also made lots of progress in Spider-Man 2. I’m about halfway through at this point, but I’m already considering buying a new game!

Dear Diary, The leaves still haven’t quite fully turned and they’re not yet falling, so it still doesn’t actually feel like proper fall. But the mushrooms started popping up again. I normally ignore them, but this week I actually needed some!

This week I went to see The Nightmare Before Christmas because there wasn’t really anything else to see and I was curious about the 3D. And I’ve been obsessed with Spider-Man 2, so I’ve got some additional thoughts now that I’ve spent more time with the game.

Dear Diary, First off, Ace totally misunderstood what Muffy was talking about, even after we gave her inspiration to come up with lyrics to her song. But also, it was a lovely fall week on Xanadu. The trees haven’t fully changed yet, but it’s still looking a little more colorful…
