Today is Nature Day, otherwise known as Earth Day. Mayor Tortimer can be found outside of town hall, handing out cool globes.
I’ve received the cool globe numerous times already, but here’s a look at it in case you haven’t seen it before. This thing is bigger than me!
Angus asked me to make a delivery to Broccolo. He was acting as if I had promised to help him out anytime he wanted (I didn’t). He was even using sarcastic quotation marks! He’d better start being nice to me or else he’s going to be surprised when he finds out what’s for dinner.
I saw a pink balloon present floating by…and I hid inside of it! Well, behind it.
I shot it down and found that it contained a flagpole. That’s funny, the present didn’t look nearly large enough to have a flagpole inside…
When I went into Frobert’s house, I found that he was all packed up and ready to move out of town. That’s disappointing, because I actually enjoyed his frogginess.
Bunnie was all cooped up in her house with a cold. I reluctantly bought some medicine for her.
I eventually found Broccolo and gave him the present from Angus–it was a tulip shirt. When I returned to Angus to tell him the delivery was complete, he thanked me and rewarded me with a lovely wall. He also offered me a root canal?!
Oh, no. The only way you’re going in my mouth is if you’re on a bun.
But Friga wasn’t in such a good mood. She was complaining about not having friends, saying she watches rugby and eats tempura all by herself.
Down on the beach, I found a crash-landed UFO and an unconscious Gulliver. It’s kind of funny that the UFO can endure long flights between planets, yet can’t handle getting hit by a pebble.
I had to talk to Gulliver over and over, but I was eventually able to wake him up.
I handed him his spaceship part; that will allow him to repair his ship and return home. Of course, his ship won’t disappear until tomorrow whether you give him his part or not.
In return, he gave me a Metroid. As you can see, it’s not my first one.
I had to shoot down 19 UFOs before I got my very first Metroid back in 2012. But since then, Gulliver has started to give me a Metroid nearly every time I shoot down his UFO! I guess he’s making up for all the trouble he caused me in the beginning.
Lily asked me to make a delivery to Broccolo, and I had just seen him a few seconds before, so I knew it would be a quick job. Once I returned, she thanked me by giving me 552 bells. There it is again! It seems that most of the times I get cash rewards for doing a job, it happens to be 552 bells! If you’ve been a long-time reader of this blog, you may remember me mentioning this before. There must be some significance to the number 552. Or the game’s random number generator is nowhere near random.
I later ran into Lily once again by Nook ‘n’ Go. She gave me a bit of a motivational speech. She said even when times are tough, look for the small things that make you happy. And she also had a flea on her.
All indications were that today was a UFO day! And indeed, at 6:07, the UFO flew from west to east. I chased after it and hit it shortly before it could zoom away!
Even though I killed two gold roses in the process, that’s okay. I have extras to replace them. I believe this was my first UFO sighting since 
I’ll have to play tomorrow to exchange my spaceship part for one of Gulliver’s items, so I should be back with another entry then. Of course, I’m not used to playing ACCF two days in a row, so hopefully I won’t forget!
