Friday Night Forest. And Bob.

Bob is over his sickness and doing well once again.

Bob: I'm SuperBob!I talked to Egbert and he asked me to tell Guest to ask him about wall decor. So I switched to my Guest character and did that.

What's the exact message? "wall decor"He gave me a lattice wall. Later on, I switched back to Jeff and opened my gate at 10:00. Yann came in. I pricked my finger on Alice’s cactus. 😛

Jeff, touching a cactus: Ow.Yann and I just hung out in various spots around town.

Jeff: How much is this snake?Bob asked me for a pale chub. *obligatory Arrested Development reference* Bob should buy a tape recorder and record himself for a whole day. I think he would be surprised at some of his phrasing.

Bob: The fate of me and my pale chub rests in your hands, Super J!But I didn’t know if the pale chub was available at that time of night, and I was unable to check an online guide, so I went fishing just in case.

Fishing in the river just under the waterfall.I didn’t catch a pale chub. As it turns out, they are not out at night anyway. I sold the fish I did catch for a few bells, but they didn’t earn me very much. I can’t wait until summer when all the valuable bugs will be out at night. Anyway, I ended up taking a nap in Kid Cat’s house before I ended the party around 11:35.

Jeff, lying on Kid Cat's weight bench: zzzz

That’s My Reward?

Once again, it was raining in Forest today. I saw Egbert, and he asked me to make a delivery to Peaches. We weren’t very far from Peaches’ house, so it was an easy delivery to make. She enjoyed the shirt he gave her, and I returned to Egbert to tell him the delivery was complete. To thank me, he… well… just see for yourself.

Egbert: Oh, that's right... To thank you, I want to give you a shower!On my walk around town, I also talked to Rowan. He had a shocking confession of his own.

Rowan: I mauled Roy...! It's all you and me, I'm grreat!I also went into Bob’s house. To my surprise, he was still sick! So I bought him some medicine for the third straight day.

Bob flips as he takes some cold medicine in Animal Crossing: City Folk for Wii.My walk around town did not reveal Pete or any visitors, so by 5:30, I thought for sure it was going to be a UFO day. But then, at nearly 5:35, I saw Pete! Bummer!

Alice in Forest Land

It was raining in Forest today, which is always a pleasant surprise. I went into Nook ‘n’ Go and Tom Nook again asked me what I value in his store.

Tom Nook: For example, Jeff... What do you look for in a store, hm?It has once again been 38 days since he last asked, and I chose “nothing much,” as I always do. That option keeps your current store, as I’ve documented here before.

This topic was discussed recently on ACC (Animal Crossing Community), and the majority of the people in the thread tended to believe that the “nothing much” option changes your store to Nook’s Cranny (the very first store). I stated that I was sure about it, but people believe what they want to believe. I’ve been choosing this option for years and Nook never changed back to Nook’s Cranny. If I’m wrong, then by all means, show me some evidence to the contrary.

I’ve noticed for years that false rumors about Animal Crossing never seem to die. Just like that ridiculous rumor about Animal Crossing: Wild World having a secret island if you give Tom Nook 50 fossils and have him blow a whistle. 😀

Anyway, Saharah was in town today, looking for old wallpaper. I went around asking my villagers to see if they had any. Along the way, I spotted a new house; Alice has just moved in to Forest.

Alice: Well, it's nice to meet you. I'm new here, so I'm sorry if I seem a little frazzled. My name is Alice.Only two of my animals had old wallpaper for me, Rowan and Mint.

Mint: Sure, I have some here I was about to toss, you witch.I didn’t have any old wallpaper in storage, so I was unable to redeem them for a rare wallpaper from Saharah. But I put those two into storage for next time. Bob was still sick today, so I again bought him some medicine.

Bob takes his medicine.
