Lucy’s replacement has moved into Forest, so I went in the new house to say hello to the new villager. And I must say, the new villager looks a lot like the old villager! It’s Gala the pig!

Gala may be cuter then Lucy, and I have had some history with her (Gala lived in my New Leaf town in 2014). But trading one pig for another isn’t exactly the upgrade I was hoping for. I know that isn’t Gala’s fault though, so I’ll try to be nice to her. 😛

It’s Saturday night, so I went down to the Roost to check out the musical performance. K.K. Slider played “Only Me” for only me.

Goldie was sick with yet another cold, so I bought some medicine for her. She must have some serious health issues though, because it seems like she’s always as sick as a dog.

I went bug-catching, and I caught a hercules beetle, two giant beetles, a cyclommatus, and a couple of emperor butterflies. It was a decent start, but I was getting tired and starting to fall asleep. In fact, I nearly sold Tom Nook my golden fishing rod by accident!!

I’m glad he had that warning for me, or I would have made a huge mistake! But I figured I had better wrap up my night and take a little nap before I did anything else stupid. 😛

So I only made about 100,000 bells on the night, and I’m not on pace to meet my summer goal. I’ll have to play some extra nights later on in the month. It just wasn’t happening tonight.

Have a good night and I’ll see you next time!

At some point over the past week, Lucy got out her pig pen and wrote me a goodbye letter. Or maybe she used a stylus instead? Regardless, I received the letter today.

The greeting I gave Purrl last week actually fooled me for a split-second tonight. When she mentioned Mario, I actually wondered if I was playing in the wrong town for a moment. 🤣

I made my way over to the museum and went down the stairs to the Roost. I intended to check out K.K. Slider’s Saturday night performance. But it turned out I was about 15 minutes too late. Oops! Where did the time go tonight? 😛

While I was bug-hunting, Bones asked me for a new greeting. I told him to say Skull & Bones. I should probably order myself a skull shirt now. 💀

In total, I played about one hour and ten minutes. And I earned about 170,000 bells, mainly from bugs. It should have been a bit higher, but I messed up and let a scarab beetle and a tarantula get away. Well, the tarantula actually attacked me, but nobody needs to know about that part. 😉

The last thing I did was take the bus to the city to check Redd’s items. But since it was after 1 a.m. by then, Redd’s shop was already closed. You know you’re playing late when Crazy Redd of all people is in bed. 😛

I posted the latest episode of Mario Plays ACCF yesterday. Here it is if you haven’t seen it yet. Enjoy, and have a great day!

Lucy the pig was all packed up and ready to move out. Excuse me if I squeal with joy. 😛 Okay, maybe Lucy wasn’t that bad, but maybe it’s just that the timing wasn’t right. Maybe we’ll meet again someday, Lucy.

Saturday night is K.K. Slider night in Animal Crossing games (well, not always in New Horizons). But some of my villagers were excited about the show tonight. Violet even said she would show up at the concert, in a thong!

I didn’t want to be there later when Violet was letting all her purple fur hang out, so I went to the Roost right away. K.K. performed K.K. March for me.

Later on, Purrl asked me for a new greeting. I had her say “Mario? Oh, Jeff.” That’s a reference to her being in both of my City Folk towns. And speaking of Mushroom, I plan to play in Mushroom soon and post a new Mario Plays ACCF video within the next week or so.

I went on my usual summer bug hunt, and I felt like I was playing very efficiently. I wasn’t missing any of the valuable bugs. Sure, a lantern fly or two may have gotten away, but they’re not worth that much anyway. However, I didn’t play as long as I did last week. Still, I earned over 160,000 bells in about an hour of total play time. And I didn’t even see a single shark!
