4th UFO of January

When I talked to Bob today, he asked me to make a delivery to Rowan. I took it to Rowan, and inexplicably, he was thrilled to receive a big dot shirt.

Rowan: Whoa! A big dot shirt! If I knew a word to call it other than awesome, I would totally call it that!I returned to Bob to tell him I completed the delivery and he thanked me by giving me a basic blue bed. Oh joy.

Bob: Oh, that's right... To thank you, I want to give you a basic blue bed!All indications today pointed to a UFO visit. It turned out to be correct. I shot it down right in front of Nook ‘n’ Go.

Shooting Gulliver's space ship (UFO) with my slingshot, right in front of Nook 'n' Go.That makes for a whopping four UFO visits in January. Gulliver usually does not come anywhere near that often, so I definitely got lucky this month.

Coffee with Phyllis, Failed Snowman

I went to the city tonight and saw Drift there. He was talking about a classy lady from Freak…that would be Abbey.

Drift: But she's not a city girl. I hear she's from Freak, brah.Back in town, I watered my flowers and stopped in The Roost. I saw Phyllis there.

Phyllis: Siiiiigh... Another day in the coal mines. (And does Phyllis ever get a day off? Noooooooooo!)So I did something I never thought I’d do. I sat down next to her and enjoyed a cup of coffee with her. Every once in a while, you’re just in such a good mood that not even the Phyllis in your life can bring you down. 🙂

Brewster hands Jeff a cup of coffee, as Phyllis sits next to Jeff.I went in to say hi to Ruby. She was talking about becoming better at fishing.

Ruby: But I keep trying! I'm, like, working on my form and doing push-ups and sweating and whatever!Just outside of Ruby’s house, a balloon present was floating by. I really like this picture of the balloon, the house, and the crystal clear sky.

A balloon present flies overhead through the clear night sky.I even said hello to Peaches tonight. She was talking about catching bugs. I didn’t have the heart to tell her it’s the middle of winter.

Peaches: And besides, it gives me an excuse to walk out in the fresh air all day long, underwear.I was about to save and quit, but then I saw two snowballs very close together. So I made a quick snowman.

Snowman: Hmmm... Close, but no top hat.It was my first snowman fail of the season. Oh well. I knew my lucky streak wouldn’t last forever. 🙂

Sharp Outfit and an Orange Balloon

My blue rose “hot spot” produced another black rose today. Nice.

A new black rose on the ground, near my two blue roses.I went into the Able Sisters’ shop and saw this sharp outfit.

Mabel: That's a sharp outfit. Yeah, that item costs just 280 bells.It cost 280 bells…I wonder how many pounds that is. Since I didn’t have the shirt in my catalog, I bought it. I then felt like playing a game of tic-tac-toe for some reason.

Afterwards, I ended up going to the city. Phineas was there, so I asked him for a balloon. He gave me an orange one.

Bob: I hope Herb and his gigantic head are doing well, master.
