Today is Sunday, so I headed to the city to check for new emotions at the theater. They had worry, curiosity, heartbreak, and glee. I like curiosity (it’s the question mark), but I generally use my four emotion slots for specific purposes that are more important (one for a happy emotion, one for a sad emotion, one for laughter, and one for shock/disbelief). If we could carry 6 or 8 emotions, curiosity is definitely one I would keep at all times. But as is, I didn’t need it or any of the emotions they had this time.
I went back to Forest and started watering my flowers. Egbert decided he no longer needed the clothes he asked me for. That’s fine by me, because I wasn’t about to buy him any more after he didn’t like the shirt I bought him Thursday.
Today is Flea Market Day, where you can buy items in animals’ houses…and they can buy items from yours. I went into Bob’s house to see what he had.
I asked about his crack machine shave-ice maker, but he refused to sell it. The first step is admitting you have an addiction, Bob.
I decided to buy his desert cactus, only because I wanted to try re-selling it at my own flea market. He sold it for 222 bells.
I also caught a yellow butterfly with hopes of selling it. I then went into my house, put the desert cactus and yellow butterfly down, and then sat in my chair as I waited for someone to come in. Before long, Egbert came in.
He first went to my yellow butterfly and asked how much I would sell it for. I tried asking 600 bells for it, but he refused. I lowered the price a couple times until he would buy it. He paid 200 bells for it.
He walked around and walked around some more. I eventually decided to push him behind the counter so I could take a picture with him.
He eventually went to my sandbag and wanted to buy it, but I didn’t want to sell it.
He stood around and walked around, and I was getting tired of the waiting. I pushed him towards my desert cactus and talked to him. He asked about it. I paid Bob 222 bells for it, so I decide to ask triple that amount, 666 bells. He refused, so I suggested 444 bells. He bought it at that price.
I then waited for him to leave, but he never left on his own. I had to leave my house for him to get the message.
As I walked by town hall, I saw Tortimer standing outisde. Today is Nature Day (known as Earth Day in real life), and he had a gift for me.
It was a cool globe. Apparently, this is a region-exclusive item that is only given out in America.
I continued my walk around town, and I talked to Del. He was wearing the Triforce pattern that my friend Olivia made.
After I was done, I switched to my Scott character. I wanted to slightly redecorate his main floor, which wasn’t easy because animals kept coming in for the flea market. And when they’re in your house, you can’t move furniture. So I had to keep leaving my house and going back in until I got everything where I wanted it. Curiously, Mint wanted my toilet. I told her no.
I also took a picture of us standing by Gulliver. Jorge just started turning around as I took the picture.
While we were there, I saw a big fish and I caught it. Unfortunately, it was just a sea bass.
Anyway, the item I got from Gulliver was… *drumroll* …a pagoda. This is what it looks like:
It’s alright. The good thing is that it’s a Gulliver item I haven’t had before. I’ve now received all of the Gulliver items except for two: The tribal mask and the Metroid. The Metroid of course is the only one I’ve really cared about getting, and it still continues to elude me.
But pitfalling a helpless victim is like eating a potato chip…you can never have just one. So I pitfall’d her again. 🙂
I tried for a third time as well, and Yann was helping me out. But Yann “accidentally” pushed me into the pitfall. 🙁
I don’t quite understand the logic of putting a shave-ice maker between a candle and a wagon wheel, but Bob is one odd cat. We did some interesting glitching by Bob’s bed for a while.
After we were done there, the three of us (Olivia was still not with us) went to the museum to play some museum tag. After the first round, Olivia finally had batteries and was able to rejoin us. A couple minutes later, Yann’s batteries also died. She had to borrow some from a clock. 😀
We discussed Tom Nook, English muffins, cat farts, and crack. So it was just your typical night in Forest. We later went to Scott’s house, where Jorge did his usual thing to my toilet.
After going through Scott’s obstacle course, Jorge left for the night around 1:15. Yann, Olivia, and I went back outside. I talked to Gulliver again.
We stood on the bridge (and I learned something new about Yuka) and I took one last picture before I ended the party, watered my flowers, and saved my game.
I was actually wearing a pattern, not a shirt. But he lives near the Able Sisters, so I went there and bought him a “U R here” shirt. He complained that it wasn’t subtle enough. He didn’t say it had to be subtle!
I wasn’t about to buy him another shirt, so he can stand there in his own filth for all I care. 😛
I talked to Mint, and she seemingly remembers 
Today, there was no Pete and no other visitors. That indicated it would be a UFO day. The UFO will only come in the first ten minutes of an hour. So I checked at the 7:00 hour, no luck. I tried again at 8:00, still no luck. I didn’t check at 9:00, but then finally at 10:07 (right before I was about to give up), it finally appeared. Thanks to my pre-marked spots, I was able to shoot it down despite the cloudy sky.
It was my first UFO since 
Before ending my game, I talked to Egbert one last time. He asked me for a new greeting. He’s a rooster, so I thought I would make give him a rooster-appropriate greeting. Not so fast.
Wow. No problem though, I just changed the first “o” to an “o” with an accent over it. Problem solved.
