Today, Curly asked me if I have an ant.

He was asking about an ant that I caught off of a piece of candy. He wanted me to trade it for a kitchen wall, and I gladly agreed to the offer.

Now that June is here, there are some notable new bugs and fish available to be caught. That includes sharks and fireflies, and I spent waaaaaaay too long trying to get a screenshot that included one of each. I caught a few sharks, but they weren’t near the part of the river where I would also see fireflies. So here are screenshots of a shark and some fireflies, separately. 😛

I also caught my first emperor butterfly, tarantula, goliath beetle, rainbow stag, and ocean sunfish of the year. 👍

I also got scared by my first oak silk moth. 😆 But we’re just one month away from the peak bug-hunting season (July and August). I plan on having another fun summer of hunting bugs (and sharks) this year. 🙂

At the Roost, I asked K.K. Slider for a random song. He performed K.K. Jazz for me, which is definitely not one of my favorites.

Here are a few other quick notes about today’s session:

• I found a lovely lamp in the recycle bin. It looked like Bushido! 😉
• I shot down a balloon present that contained a robo-sofa.
• Mint bought a sea bass from me for a whopping 211 bells. 😆

Yesterday, I posted my latest City Folk Moments video. It features highlights from February through May, along with Tom Nook’s wanted poster from his criminal days. 😉 Please check it out if you haven’t seen it yet.

Curly locked himself out of his house today, and he was worried about all his stuff.

He could just go roll in the mud, really. Since he lives in a pig sty anyway. 😉 But no, I didn’t help him look for his key. 😛

Antonio was sick with a cold, so I gave him some medicine. As he flipped, the two layers of his tail almost looked like wings as he appeared to fly in mid-air. 😉

At the Roost, K.K. Slider performed K.K. Bossa for me. It’s a classic.

There was a new house in the southwest corner of town, and I found another returning villager inside: It’s Midge!

She lived here before, from 2017 to 2019. I’ve also had her in New Horizons two separate times in the past four years. So I’ve been seeing a lot of her in the past few years. But still, I do like her. Welcome back, Midge.

Another fishing tournament was held today, and I got the news from Chip (after the tourney was over, of course). He told me it was a black bass-only tournament, and Roscoe was the winner with a 22.2-inch catch.

At 8:00 tonight, I dropped into the Roost to check out the Saturday night show. K.K. performed K.K. D & B for me; that’s the song he played for me in New Horizons last week. (But the song title is spaced out more in this game.)

Curly asked me to look for some clocky furniture for him, and I agreed to help. So he told me to go on and “get into gear.” 😆 I don’t know if this pun was intentional or a coincidence, but I appreciated it all the same.

But even though I intended to help Curly out, I was having trouble locating a clock. I checked the recycle bin, the lost-and-found, and my house. (The only clocks I had in storage were ones belonging to seasonal sets, that can’t be reordered. And I didn’t want to break up my collection for a simple favor.)

However, I knew there would be two items hidden in trees, so I went around town shaking trees. But when you deal with trees, you also deal with bees. I caught the first one I encountered, but the 2nd one stung me. As for the furniture items, I found a tiki torch and a reel-to-reel. It looks like Curly won’t be getting his clock any time soon.

When I spoke with Tom, he reacted to my swollen, bee-stung face. He told me not to run into an angry swarm of bees, or Jerry. 😆

It’s been months since I gave Tom that catchphrase, and I think this is the first time it truly worked out well. Better late than never!
