I spotted a tarantula on the beach tonight, right along the water’s edge.

I got my net out and walked towards it. Right as I swung my net, the tarantula sidestepped into the ocean, never to be seen again. It was so close to where my net landed, that I felt robbed.

When I visited Static, he said that Roald and Puck are so close to each other that they act like family. Then he wondered if they could be related, since they look so much alike. That’s actually true, they do look alike! I think Static just randomly stumbled onto the truth.

Speaking of Puck, he asked me for some of my clothes. I didn’t have a spare outfit with me, but I bought a “U R here” shirt for him at Able Sisters. But when I took it back to him, he said it wasn’t “fresh” enough, and he refused it.

I hate how picky animals are when it comes to clothes in City Folk. Especially considering they don’t tell you up front that it has to be a certain style.

Over at the Roost, I ran into Phyllis. She complained that she sees too much of the people in town.

After making my rounds, I did a little fishing and bug-catching. That included catching two sharks right next to each other!

I also caught a hammerhead shark, an arapaima, a goliath beetle, a couple of gars, and more. But one thing I didn’t catch? The scorpion that caught me first. Oof.

I didn’t play as long as I did last week, but I still ended up earning over 100,000 bells on the night. See you next time!

Last Sunday night, I played just before midnight so that I could see if fireflies would disappear off the screen right as the clock struck twelve (and June turned to July). They didn’t, although the two fireflies that remained on-screen were the last two that I saw.

Before I ended my game, I checked my bank account balance: 36,100,000 bells. Just like last year, I want to earn a million bells in July, and another million in August. So my goal is to have 38.1 million bells by September 1st.

Tonight, Whitney the white wolf was feeling under the weather. So I managed to get my mitts on some medicine. Maybe it will mitigate her malady and improve her mood.

Crazy Redd had a pear wardrobe for sale, and he claimed it was the first of its kind to ever be offered for sale. I scoffed at his claim, but I appreciated his (probably inadvertent) wordplay by saying that the pear wardrobe was a slice of history.

At the Roost, K.K. Slider was performing. I asked for a random song, and he played K.K. D & B for me.

Goldie said that there are a lot of empty houses in town, but that’s not true at all. In fact, the one she was standing by, was the only one!

Once I spoke with everyone, I started my bug-hunting session. Here, I caught an atlas beetle. A few seconds later, I also caught the cyclommatus on the tree next to it.

I was finding lots of valuable bugs, and I ended up making about 200,000 bells on the night. Good luck with your bug hunts, and I’ll see you next week!

Roald sent me a letter in the mail, thanking me for the medicine I gave him last week. He sent me a jade econo-chair as my reward.

I saw Ruby in the city tonight, and she talked about Phineas. Well she didn’t mention him by name, but she referred to a “weird guy” that hands out balloons and streamers.

Over by the Forest Museum, I found myself a four-leaf clover. Will I be lucky now?

Kitty asked me for a fossil, and I had two that Blathers just identified for me. I gave Kitty a plesio torso, and in return, she gave me a…white golf bag? Ugh. Why do I bother giving my villagers fossils for subpar rewards? I felt boneheaded.

Goldie asked me for a new outfit, so I went to Able Sisters and bought a lotus shirt for her. But when I took it over to Goldie, she refused it! She said it wasn’t stylish enough!

After a quick stop at Nook ‘n’ Go, Roald asked me to play a game of hide-and-seek. I agreed.

I had ten minutes to find him, Static, and Midge. It took me just one minute to find Static, who was hiding behind Whitney’s house. Another minute after that, I also found Midge. She was behind a tree, between the ramp and a pond.

Roald took me longer to find…not because his hiding spot was good. In fact, it was the worst of the bunch: He was hiding behind a sign post! It just took me longer because it was all the way on the other side of town.

He gave me a tall sputnoid as my prize for winning the game.

I checked the lost-and-found for another shirt to give Goldie, because I sure wasn’t going to buy another one for her. Booker had a blue sweatsuit available, and I took it to Goldie. But once again, Goldie said it wasn’t stylish enough for her. Well, she’s just going to have to stay unstylish, because that’s all the clothes I’m getting for her.

Before ending my game for the night, I shot down a pink balloon present. I found a dart board inside.

I’m working on a new episode of Mario Plays ACCF, and I’m planning on uploading the video to Youtube tomorrow. I hope you’ll check it out, and have a great weekend!
