I shot down Gulliver’s UFO yesterday, so that meant he would be on the beach today. I found him and gave him his missing spaceship part.

Which item would he give me in return? I was hoping for a metroid or a moai statue. But he gave me…a Mouth of Truth. I like the Mouth of Truth, but I already have one, from the first time I shot him down. So after only four Gulliver items, I already have one duplicate. Considering how rare the UFO is, and how hard it is to shoot it down, this is a big disappointment.

Francine has officially moved out of town; I got her goodbye letter today. As usual when an animal moves out, I take regular flowers out of my “free flower” area and place them where the departing beast’s house was. That’s so the grass there regrows quicker.

I played between 5:00 and 5:30 p.m. and saw that Pete was nowhere to be found. That, combined with the fact that no other visitors were in town, let me know that the UFO should be flying overhead later.

And true enough, it happened, and I shot it down and recovered the spaceship gear part for the 4th time. Will this be the time I get lucky and get the metroid? I wouldn’t mind the moai statue either. I’ll find out tomorrow.

Saharah was in town today, looking for old wallpaper. Bob, Nana, Del, and Peaches gave me some. I also had two of them in storage, for six old wallpapers in total. That was enough for two of the rare wallpapers from Saharah.

One was the lunar horizon, which I already have in my basement. But it is one of my favorite wallpapers, so I may keep that as well. The other was a western vista. I’ve seen it on GameCube before of course, but this was my first time owning it in City Folk. It’s nice, but I don’t think I need to keep it.

When I went in Francine’s house, I saw her house full of boxes. She’s moving out. With no Rhonda and no Frankengaga (as we call Francine), I wouldn’t be surprised if Jorge never visited Forest again.

And of course, you always have to have some fun with the catchphrases.

A couple of other notes: I shot down a balloon present and got a koopa shell; and then later on, I caught a scorpion before I ended my play session for the night.
