Rosie Cheeks

Crazy Redd was in town tonight, and I used the password “Redd is 35” to enter his tent. He had an opulent painting for sale, and I think that’s the first time I’ve seen it in Wild World.

Redd: Now, you see? That there opulent painting is a very rare piece!

So I bought it for 3,920 bells. But unfortunately, Blathers informed me that it was a fake. 🙁

Just outside of Redd’s tent, Rosie was crying. She said that all of her clothes shrunk, so she was going to have to walk around naked! 😮

Rosie: I'm gonna have to be naked!
She doesn’t want everyone seeing her… uh… Rosie cheeks.

She needed new clothes, and I decided to help her out. I went into Able Sisters and bought a heart shirt for her. I immediately took it to Rosie, and she put it on right away.

Rosie: Well, anyway, I wanna thank you for your help!

She rewarded me with an afro wig. I had no plans of keeping it, but at least I tried it on before selling it. 😛

Kiki was in a very good mood for some reason, saying life is all rainbows and flowers lately. I was going to say life is all counterfeit art and flea bites, but I didn’t want to bring her down. 😛

Kiki: I just feel like life is all rainbows and flowers lately, le meow!

The latest “Message of the Week” on the bulletin board said that an apple a day keeps the doctor away, while an onion a day keeps everyone away.

*Message of the Week* An apple a day keeps the doctor away. An onion a day keeps everyone away.

Curly was still sick with a cold, so I bought some medicine for him. I’m sure he’ll start to feel better…when pigs fly.

Two of my villagers were asking me for fish…so I went fishing and caught them both! Big Top gave me 510 bells for a bitterling, and Bud gave me some slate flooring for a dace.

I then went over to town hall and made a 40,000 bell mortgage payment. I was about to end my game, and then I decided I wanted some coffee. But once I got into the Roost, I saw that I only had 177 bells left in my pockets. Just 23 bells short, haha. Oh well, maybe next time. 🙂

A Rosie Outlook

Crazy Redd was in town on Tuesday, and he had a famous painting for sale. I still need that one for the museum, so I bought it.

Redd: You like it? You like that famous painting? Hee hee hee!

But unfortunately, I quickly found out that it was a fake. No Mona Lisa for me.

There was a new house in town, and Rosie just moved in! She’s a cool cat.

Rosie: Evening! I'm Rosie. I gotta say, I just love to walk around.

Kiki has been asking me for black furniture, so I bought a weight bench at Nookington’s for her. She actually liked the gift, even though I wasn’t so sure she would when I bought it.

Kiki: Oh, J-rock, thank you so much! I owe you dinner or something!
Do you even lift?

In addition to owing me dinner, she also gave me a hearth. 😛 I left her house and re-entered to see if she put the weight bench up, and she did.

I also bought a Spaceman Sam at the shop on Tuesday. I’ve decided to turn my back room into a space-themed room (eventually), although the Spaceman Sam and space station are the only two items I have in there so far.

Tonight, Curly was sick with a cold. I gave him some medicine. We don’t want him catching the swine flu.

At the Roost, K.K. performed Lucky K.K. for me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: Lucky K.K.!
It must be my lucky night.

I paid a total of 60,000 bells towards my mortgage payment since the last entry (25,000 bells Tuesday and 35,000 tonight). Just 613,000 bells to go. 😛

January Fishing Tourney

The first fishing tournament of 2018 was held today, and I decided to participate (since I usually don’t). In fact, this is only my second time participating in Wild World’s fishing tourney. I went over to town hall and had a quick chat with Tortimer.

Tortimer: The Fishing Tourney, as the name suggests, is a contest where you fish.
Thanks for clearing that up.

He said the largest fish wins, and he also said I’ll get a prize if I beat my personal best.

Tortimer: I'll present you with a prize that'll make the young'uns squeal with glee.After catching a squid, I took it to Tortimer. He measured it (15 inches), and then he laughed at me. He informed me that Big Top already caught a tuna that measured 89.1 inches. Well, shoot.

Tortimer: Big Top already caught a tuna that was 89.1 inches.

I wasn’t liking my chances. Still, I fished a bit more. I caught a sea bass, and took it to Tortimer to see how it compared. It was only 41.3 inches. So I basically gave up at that point. Even though I did fish a little while longer, I knew I wasn’t going to win. Why can’t the Wild World tournaments be as easy as my New Leaf tournament was yesterday? 😛

I returned home and checked my mail. The snowman I built yesterday sent me a letter, along with a snowman sofa. I added it to my main room.

Thank you, Jeff! All hail my creator! In thanks, I will soothe your aching muscles with this snowman sofa! It's sooo cozy! -Snowman

A new “Talking to Myself” message was posted on the bulletin board. Sounds like somebody likes to purposely make her sister mad. 😛

-Talking to Myself- If you want to make my sister mad, just cut her bread really thin. She hates that!

Since I just played yesterday, it was too soon for any apples to be on trees. So I didn’t make very much money today. Even though I was fishing for a while, none of the fish I caught were worth much. So I only had 20,000 bells to pay towards my mortgage this time.

I plan on playing again on Tuesday, but I may or may not post another blog entry at that time. If nothing much happens, I may wait until Saturday to post the next entry.
