On Wednesday, I received a goodbye letter from Wart Jr. in the mail. I’m glad it was him, and not Lily, that moved out.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Dear<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

When I spoke with Candi, she offered to buy the trilobite I had in my pockets for 2,290 bells. I agreed to the trade, but then something unusual happened. She said she hoped I wasn’t agreeing just to be nice…<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Candi:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

…and she gave me a chance to back out of the deal! But I still sold it to her.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Candi:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Usually, villagers are at the opposite end of the spectrum on things like this. Occasionally, they will even steal things from you outright, without giving you a chance to decline! So seeing Candi giving me a second chance was really surprising! Thanks for being nice for a change, Candi!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nearby, I found a new house. Murphy the bear cub is my newest villager!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Murphy:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Murphy lived in Forest back in 2012, but there’s an interesting twist to that: I never actually saw him at the time, at least not his face! See, he moved in on Halloween<\/a> that year. So when I got over to his house, he was already dressed up as Jack, demanding candy from me! And by the next time I played, he had already moved out! But at any rate, welcome (back) to Forest, Murphy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baabara was telling me about what she saw while walking by the beach one night. She said that she saw a body lying there in the sand!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Baabara:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

And when she went back to see it a 2nd time, it was gone! Even though it sounded like she was talking about Gulliver, she seemed to think it was a ghost.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Baabara:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

On Thursday, it was raining in town. Fortunately, Puck devised a plan to make the rain stop: Just simply wait for the rainy season to end. Genius.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Puck:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Murphy did not seem very happy to see me. For no apparent reason. He’s not making a very good impression on me so far.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Murphy:
Anything that can <\/em>go wrong in this friendship, will <\/em>go wrong.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Hank told me that he thought he could show off for the ladies by bowling in the rain. I guess as long as he watches out for strikes…of lightning.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Hank:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I guess rain bowling is right up his alley. \ud83c\udfb3<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I played again tonight, and it was raining once again. Tom warned me not to spin my umbrella anywhere near him, because he didn’t want to get wet.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Tom:
You’re lucky I like you. \ud83d\ude1b<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I wasn’t looking to start any beef with Tom, so I didn’t get my umbrella out and spin it on him out of spite. Not this time, at least. \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After making my rounds, I did a little ocean fishing (just 5-10 minutes) in hopes of snagging a coelacanth. I didn’t find one, but I did catch a couple of barred knifejaws and several red snappers as well. But there will be plenty of time for good ocean fishing in September.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
