Month: October 2017

I went in Groucho’s house today, expecting to see him ready to move out. But surprisingly, he wasn’t packed up yet. He gave me another chance to save him, but I declined the option. So he will likely be gone by next week.

Nan was sick with a cold, so I bought some medicine for her. Goat well soon!

Tangy asked me to play hide-and-seek with her, and I agreed. So I had ten minutes to find her, Kitty, and Opal.

I found Tangy pretty quickly; she was hiding behind Nan’s house.

I then went 7+ minutes of not finding anybody. But with two minutes to go, I found Kitty behind a tree in the southwest part of town. And with just one minute to spare, I found Opal behind the bulletin board. She was near the starting point…I should have seen her the first time! Oops!

Tangy gave me a mega echoid for winning the game.

I shook a few trees, and some bees came out of one of them! I quickly ran to the bus stop and boarded a bus. The bees disbanded and I escaped. Whew.

A bit later, I overheard Kitty and Dotty gossiping about me! How rude!

When I spoke with Static today, he asked if I’d like to play a game of Cat Burglar and Private Eye. Once I agreed to play, he revealed that he was really talking about hide-and-seek. I figured as much anyway. He gave me ten minutes to find him, Samson, and Midge.

Three minutes into the game, I found Samson hiding behind a tree near the fountain. Another minute after that, I found Static trying to hide behind a sign post!

I probably spent too much time taking the above picture. I was waiting for him to lean out just right, and I got too picky. But I continued on my search. I ran into Groucho, and he told me he was thinking of moving away. I didn’t try to stop him.

There was only about a minute left on the clock by the time I made a full circle around town. I still hadn’t found Midge, so I began a 2nd lap around Forest. But by the time I made my way back to Samson again, time had run out. I lost the game. So I didn’t get a prize, and Static told me nobody expected me to win anyway. Thanks, pal.

When I met up with Opal, she told me she saw a philosopher standing on a bridge in town. I knew she meant Pascal, of course, but I don’t recall seeing this dialogue before. I don’t remember anyone referring to him as a philosopher, nor do I recall the game specifically telling you that scallops are what he desires.

Fortunately, I had a scallop attached to a letter. I took it over to Pascal on the bridge, and he gave me a ship deck (flooring) in return. He also advised me not to sweat the small stuff, unless it’s a virus.

Benedict asked me for a fossil, so I gave him an apato skull. He rewarded me with 520 bells; that’s not very much for a fossil! Then, he said he’s going to sleep with the skull tonight. Uh, okay…

In the northeast corner of town (near the homes of Midge and Guest), I found a new house. Inside the house, I found a new mouse. Welcome to Forest, Samson!

In the western part of town, Opal gave me a new shirt–a kiwi shirt. I decided to put it on, since I was in need of new clothes. And this isn’t one of my usual shirts, so it’s nice to try something new occasionally.

While standing on the town’s southern bridge, Tangy told me that she was feeling bloated. She just ate 50 pounds of fruit salad! Wow.

Opal asked me to make a delivery to Midge, so I agreed to help out. The package contained a bone shirt…just like the bone shirt I recently gave Rhonda in Wild World. Well, with Halloween coming up in a few weeks, this is a good time to wear your bones on the outside of your body.

Kitty locked herself out of her house, and I wasn’t interested in fishing for her key. But I was a bit surprised when I realized what she was wearing…the star bikini! Doesn’t she feel cold wearing it this time of year?
