Big Top’s Big Tub

Last Sunday night, I ran into Marina. She said she was going to spend the rest of the day painting pictures.

Marina: Speaking of hobbies, I think I'll spend today painting pictures, blurp.

That’s a great hobby for her, because she can use her own ink! 🐙

I went bug-hunting, and I continued hunting even after Nook’s shop closed for the night. I was planning on saving everything for the next day, until I realized…it was flea market day! So I put a few bugs on display in my house and waited for someone to come in.

Fang: Heya, Jeff! Looks like you've got a real business going on here!

Fang wouldn’t pay 15k or 13k for a scarab beetle, but he agreed to buy it for 12k. That’s double what Tom Nook pays! Nice! I normally don’t sell things on flea market days, but I now see how useful it is during bug-hunting season.

On Monday night, Antonio gave me a Corinthian post that he had for me, up his nose. I know his nose is big, but I didn’t think he could fit one of those up his nose! 😛

Antonio: Whoa... Boy J! Have I got something awesome for YOU, up my nose!

On Thursday night, I listened in on a conversation between Mint and Nana. Nana told Mint that she looked especially lovely today, so she asked how much she spent on cosmetic surgery to look that good. 💀

Nana: How much money did you spend on cosmetic surgery?

That made Mint furious, understandably. She said it was the face she got from her parents.

Poor Biskit was sick with a cold lately, so I gave him some medicine on Thursday and again tonight. Get well soon, Biskit!

Tonight, I headed over to the Roost for K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show. I asked for a random song (as I typically do), and he performed “K.K. Dixie” for me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Dixie.

I later spotted a tarantula on the shore, and even in the water!

A tarantula standing in the water.

I approached him slowly, and he wasn’t moving. So I was able to catch him without much trouble.

Big Top asked me for a fossil, so I gave him a fern fossil that I dug up. He rewarded me with a library wall, and he said he felt like he had just eaten a big tub of happiness! Aww!

Big Top: Awwww, shucks... I feel like I've just eaten a big tub of happiness.
Big Top’s big tub.

But despite all that happiness, Big Top was thinking about moving out of town! However, I kept talking to him until I was able to change his mind. He’s staying. 😮‍💨

Just today, I posted the latest City Folk Moments video! Check it out!

The first (of five) fireworks festivals is tomorrow night. Have fun if you’ll be playing, and enjoy the show! 🎆
