Fireworks Festival

I started out my day by taking the bus to the city. While there, I checked the theater for new emotions, but they didn’t have any I wanted.

Clerk: What show would you like to see today?I also went in GracieGrace; they had the sweets furniture on display.

Del: COUGH, HACK, WHEEZE!Tortimer was out in front of town hall, preparing for the fireworks festival tonight.

Tortimer: This is the first Fireworks Show of the summer, an event to commemorate! With explosions!Later on, at 8:10, I opened up my gate. Yann and Megan came to visit. We saw a helmet and a beak in the Able Sisters.

Jeff: Bushy vs. Beaky.Yann bought the helmet, so we joked that she was Bushido’s daughter. Anyway, we went outside and used some fireworks we got from Tortimer. Megan said it was time to wax Tortimer’s shell, just like we did two years ago. She blew the bubbles and I provided the hot gas. From the Roman candle, I mean.

Megan: It's that time of year. Jeff: LOL deja vu.Megan continued blowing bubbles even as I was talking to Kid Cat.

Kid Cat: They're all stoked! It's like they're saying "Wooooo! Yeah! Fireworks are sweet!" I'm a hero!At one point, the three of us and Kid Cat were all clapping for the fireworks.

Megan, Jeff, and Yann enjoying the fireworks.We were finding lots of rare bugs. It seemed like the 9 o’clock hour was better than our usual times (10:00 and later). We were catching rare bugs left and right and we talked as we hunted.

Jeff: Is a circus circus a circus? Yann: I won a big ball.And we were making fun out of our names. We always do stuff like this, haha.

Jeff: Meggin' scrambled eggs. Megan: That's Jeffed up!We also had an apple bake. This was also something Megan and I did two years ago.

Jeff, Yann, Megan, Tortimer, and three villagers hanging out around town hall.I made about 170,000 bells from catching bugs tonight. Around 10:45, I closed my gate for the night. Before I ended my game, I went into Del’s house to give him the medicine I bought for him earlier.

A Crazy Friday Night

I opened my gate around 10:10 tonight. Megan and Yann came over to visit. We went into the Able Sisters’ shop, and when I came out, Jambette was standing there just waiting for me.

Jeff, to Jambette: STALKER!At one point, Yann got a blue kotatsu (I don’t even remember where she got it…the recycle bin perhaps) and was asking what it looked like. So I put it in my house so she could see it.

Jeff: Flowers not included.After a bit, we spontaneously started doing something that made no sense at all, but was inexplicably hilarious. Megan would turn the light off and we started applauding (the “delight” emotion). Then she would turn it on and we all used shock/disbelief. We went back and forth doing that for a while and got a good laugh out of it. It was at that moment that I realized we were all completely insane. 😀

Applauding the darkness.We later tried to visit Del (Yann’s husband), but he was sick and wouldn’t let us in.

Sign on Del's house: No visitors. Danger! Keep out! Infectious!We spent a good while catching rare fish and summer bugs, including some nice golden stags.

Yann, Jeff, and Megan all holding golden stags.At one point, Megan’s batteries died. She made the mistake of announcing that fact, so I took advantage of the situation and pitfall’d her.

Megan, caught in a pitfall: RUDE.While catching bugs and fish, my pockets would often fill up and I would have to temporarily drop an item until I got back to Nook’s to sell my catches. On multiple occasions, Megan has seen me drop the same particular item, an “A shirt.” So of course, she had to make fun of me for it.

Note on the bulletin board: A Shirt was here. And there. -MeganBy 1:00, we headed to Nook’s before he closed up shop for the night. I earned 156,850 bells just on bugs and fish caught tonight.

Jeff: 156,850 bells tonight.We again did the Nook door glitch. Later, we made our way to the Forest Museum, where Megan was checking out the exhibits.

Yann: I need to catch these!We watched the bugs fight and we just started talking; we actually hung out in there for a very long time. I was getting tired (and crazy) and for a while I was kind of repeating everything Yann said, but making it slightly different.

For example, Yann would say “just flying around my face” and I would say “just filing my round face.” She said “people are deactivating” and I would say “pickles are deceiving.” She said “he’s deforming my conversation” and I said “he’s devaluing my Converse.” And so on.

I had put my controller down and they were pushing me all around the bug room. After a while, I was so “drunk” (haha, not really) that they had to push me all the way back to my house. It was kind of a crazy night and I was quite tired, but we had a good time.

Victoria Moved Out

Just a quick update. Victoria moved out today. This was her goodbye letter.

Like, to Jeff, I totally had to think about it for, like, forever...but I decided to move after all. Sniff! Don't forget me when I'm gone, OK?! -From your BFF, VictoriaAnd this was the void left behind where her house was.

The empty spot where Victoria's house was.I filled in all that dirt with flowers so that the grass will regrow quicker. Not much else happened today. I watered my flowers and found two new black roses. I haven’t been getting many new hybrids lately, so it was nice to finally get a couple.
