Month: August 2015

When I went in to visit Gladys today, I was surprised to see that she was all packed up and ready to move out! That was quick! She just moved in one month ago (to the day).

Alfonso was sick with a cold, so I bought some medicine to help him feel better. I guess you could call it Gator Aid.

Static was talking about red turnips today…I had completely forgotten red turnips were a thing! Not that I ever bought any.

And of course, it’s Saturday night, so I headed to the Roost for some live music. K.K. then performed K.K. Technopop for me.

Tomorrow night is the 4th fireworks festival (of five). I plan on attending one of them, but it may not be tomorrow. If not, I’ll definitely attend next Sunday.

As expected, Nat sent me a bug trophy in the mail as my reward for winning the Bug-Off. I had no need for it, so I promptly sold it. 😛

Saharah was in town today, looking for old wallpaper. In fact, she was the reason I’m writing this blog entry today instead of tomorrow. I still need a number of her items, so I’ll often start up City Folk to see if she’s in town. If so, I’ll keep playing and write a blog entry. If not, I’ll wait until my usual-ish days, which tend to be Wednesdays and Saturdays.

So I began asking around for wallpaper. Static had no interest in helping me out. He even used an excuse about not having any pets or kids! I’ve never heard of a squirrel that has pets.

Kitt was creeping around outside of Cousteau’s house for some reason. When I caught her, she bribed me with an old wallpaper. So I won’t mention it to Cousteau…this time.

Twiggy, however, wasn’t as cooperative. She just wanted to make jokes, asking if I needed old wallpaper because I bought an old wall. She even thought her joke was so funny that she told me to retweet it!

Friga was the only other villager to give me old wallpaper. Fortunately, I had one in storage to take to Saharah in addition to the two from Kitt and Friga. In return, Saharah gave me a tropical vista.

The tropical vista is definitely an attractive wallpaper. But unfortunately, it’s not one that I needed.

Broccolo told me he was having bad dreams last night. He blamed them on some iced tea he drank. Come on, mouse, you and I both know it wasn’t iced tea in your cup.

The Bug-Off insect-catching competition was held today, so I kept my eyes open for rare bugs while making my rounds. I spotted a rainbow stag, and I knew I had to catch it!

I took it to Nat, the judge of the Bug-Off, and he examined it and said it scored 84 points. That took over the top spot. Nat rewarded me with an exotic chair.

I took a little nap, and then returned to the game after 6:00 when the competition was over. Nobody topped my 84-point rainbow stag, so I was the official winner of the Bug-Off.

Nat said that he’ll send me my prize (the trophy) in the mail. I celebrated my win by popping off a couple of my party poppers that have been sitting there since New Year’s Eve.
