It was raining in Forest today. On my way to Nook’s, I saw Candi and I stopped to talk to her. She was pretending to be Saharah the carpet saleswoman.

She asked if I wanted to buy a carpet. I said no, and she got all sad. She wondered how I knew she wasn’t Saharah. Well maybe because she’s lived practically next door to me for ten years? Not to mention a mouse has very little resemblance to a camel? Just saying.

Anyway… I was tired of wearing the skull shirt, so I went to buy something new. The selection wasn’t that good, but I went ahead and bought the blue check shirt. Yeah, maybe it looks like a tablecloth, but then maybe no one will mind if I spill food on it.

I went around town pulling weeds. When I got to the beach, I saw Gulliver lying there.After I woke him up and listened to his spiel, he gave me a shogi piece. I continued on and I looked for the money rock. I couldn’t help but notice how my head goes into the cliff after hitting the rock.

After stopping at the post office, I returned home and took a look at the shogi piece. That’s all for today, see you next time!

The sports fair was held today to celebrate the beginning of spring. The sports fair consists of four events: aerobics, foot race, ball toss, and tug-o-war. The first event, aerobics, starts at 9:00 a.m., and each event lasts two hours. But by the time I played, they were already on the final event, the tug-o-war.

But my mailbox was blinking, so I checked my mail before I headed to the wishing well. I had a letter from Peewee, who has already moved out of town.

I then made my way to the event. The teams were Baabara and Kody against Ursala and Tom. Belle was the flag-waver and of course Tortimer looked on.

Kody was pumped up and he seemed to anger Ursala.

Tortimer seems to be getting too old to even root for the teams. Maybe he should retire, turn over a new leaf, and let someone else be mayor. 😉

I watched the event for a couple minutes, but then I left to go meet my new neighbor, Camofrog.

If you’d like to see what all the events look like, here’s a video that shows them all:

It was a nice, sunny day in Forest. I got a letter from Mom in the mail. She still doesn’t accept the fact that I went to live in a village of animals. They’re not all stinky, Mom!

After stopping at Nook’s, I said hello to Puck. He kept going on about how hungry he was. But he lives right next to the river, so why doesn’t he just jump in and catch some fish?

Even though the snow has melted, it’s still cold outside. I decided I needed a nice island getaway, so I had Kapp’n take me to Island Island. On the way, he sang me his cucumber song.

While there, my island resident Ankha asked me to sign the island guestbook.

Then she told me about how she’s going to make raviolis tonight. Interesting. Is that what they ate in ancient Egypt?

She was then talking about coconuts and how she doesn’t really care for them.

I then stopped in the island guest house. I know it’s very messy, but I really just use it for storage. I stuffed it full with Jingle items, summer camper items, igloo items, and some other random things. I even keep a DUMMY in there.

I then hopped on Kapp’n’s dinghy and had him take me back to Forest. Along the way, he stopped mid-song to tell me about the type of women he likes. Too much information, pal.

Back in Forest, I talked to Emerald. She asked me if I enjoyed sleeping or eating more. I said eating, and she said I was the exact opposite of her.

What’s the opposite of a frog? Haha, anyway I stopped at the post office and then returned home for the day. See you next time!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, everyone!
