Fireworks Night Forest

As of yesterday, Yuka is all packed up and ready to leave. She will move out by tomorrow.

Yuka: I'm getting ready to move out of town, like we talked about.Today, I went to the city to check this week’s new emotions.

Clerk: What show would you like to see today?I then came back to town and watered my flowers. I’m starting to get frustrated by the lack of rain lately. The rain provides occasional breaks from watering, which makes the whole process somewhat tolerable. But when there is no rain and you have to water flowers every single day, it gets to be a pain. On the bright side, I did find two new black roses today.

Around 8:00, I opened my gate for the fireworks festival. Yann came over to visit. I was mostly just catching bugs, but I caught some fish too, like this ocean sunfish.

Egbert stands near us, as we show off our large fish catches.He was facing the fish and applauding (for the fireworks), but I know he was really trying to nibble the fish.

Egbert applauds the fireworks while standing right by our large fish we're showing off.I then wondered aloud where my manners were; I forgot to burn Megan!

Jeff, holding a sparkler: I didn't even burn you yet!Yann put on her dandy hat and Megan seemed shocked. She apparently had never seen the dandy hat in City Folk before. I asked if she wanted me to order one for her. Yann then asked who I was talking to… I said Megan obviously, since you already have one. 😛

I then facetiously asked if Yann wanted me to order her one as well. To my surprise, she said yes. I wasn’t sure why she would need me to order her one when she already has one. Never mind the fact that only one hat can be worn at a time, and it would be in her catalog already anyway. But I went on and ordered it. I told her I expect to see her wearing both hats next time. 😛

Once I came out of the store, Kid Cat was there and I talked to him.

Kid Cat: I wonder if the fish notice that the skies are all exploding with colors and stuff, I'm a hero?And at one point, somebody got me started on blue foods. Blue is an uncommon color for food, so for me, it’s hard to think of blue things as food. That includes blue m&m’s, which are unnatural and don’t grow on real m&m trees. 😉

Jeff: Food isn't meant to be blue.As for bugs and fish, I earned over 100,000 bells in less than an hour. By the time I closed my gate around 9:30, I finished with 115,000 bells on the night.

Friday Night Forest

After watering my flowers tonight, I opened my gate shortly after 10:00. Yann and Megan came over to visit. We were catching a lot of good bugs. At one point, Yann was talking to Anabelle and I was literally caught in the middle. I couldn’t get out, and my character was shaking when I would run to the left.

Jeff, stuck between Yann and Anabelle: I'm jittery when I run left.At 11:00, we did the Able Sisters’ door glitch. I was outside and they were stuck in the door. But before I gave them the signal to come out, I planted a pitfall seed. Yann ended up in it.

Yann falls into a pitfall outside of Able Sisters.We continued catching bugs, even as we made dinosaur puns.

Jeff: Even if I say plesiosaur?I told them that this Sunday would be my last fireworks festival of the year, since I wouldn’t be online the following Sunday. For some reason, they found something hilarious about that. I had no idea what was so funny and things started getting awkward.

Jeff: What funny? Yann: U.We later re-did our lamp shock/applause routine that we did two weeks ago. I wasn’t recording when we did it the first time, so I wanted to give it another try. It wasn’t funny this time, but that may have just been the mood I was in.

Yann, Jeff, and Megan acting shocked.I was thinking about closing my gate by 12:30, but then Megan said she was going anyway. So I ended the party and then sold the remainder of my bugs. I made over 200,000 bells on the night.

Tom Nook: I'll put the rest in bags and give those to you, yes? Oh, and don't worry, that fine service is free, hm?

Creepy Stone DLC

Today, Pete met me outside my door to deliver the new DLC: The creepy stone. This was the letter from Nintendo:

Dear Jeff, No need to wonder who this headstone belongs to... It belongs to you! Not that you're... You know what we mean! Happy decorating! -NintendoAnd this is the creepy stone. This one has a skull on top, as opposed to the creepy bat stones sent out in June. This is so that your graveyard can have a little variety. Or maybe one is for dead people and the other is for dead bats.

The creepy stone DLC item from Nintendo.Later on, I made my way around town to water my flowers. I stopped into the Able Sisters, and they had an incredibly ugly shirt. It’s called the flowery shirt. Believe it or not, I actually bought it…but only because I needed it for my catalog checklist. I later sold it to Nook.

Mabel: That's a flowery shirt. Yeah, that item costs just 400 bells.I saw Wendell the walrus in my town.

Wendell: S-so huuuuuuuungry. M-must eat something!Even though I didn’t need any of his patterns, I decided to be nice for a change and I gave him something to eat. After I handed him a cherry, he gave me a coloring Resetti pattern. I don’t plan on keeping it.

The coloring Resetti pattern from Wendell. It's black and white, and players are meant to color it in themselves.After I finished my watering, I was done playing. But I was on the forums at The Bell Tree, and someone was asking about a certain wallpaper. I checked my catalog and found the wallpaper in question. It was the tea-room wall.

The tea-room wall as seen in the catalog. Cost: 1,575 bells.
