Winter has arrived in Forest, as snow now covers the ground and trees. Chip was hanging out in front of town hall, because there was apparently a fishing tournament today. Who knew? 😛

He told me that Goldie was the winner of the tournament with a 41.2-inch sea bass. So Goldie wins the gold! Yay!

Chip was also on the minds of some of my villagers. Rasher was impressed by Chip’s cooking skills, but also by the way he gobbles up the fish!

Saturday night is K.K. night, so I slid on down to the Roost to check out the show. I asked for a random song, and he played K.K. Steppe for me. That’s the 2nd time in my last 3 K.K. shows that he’s played that song! He needs to steppe up his game.

When I visited Kitty after the show, she gave me the best Christmas present I could ask for: After 1,415 long days (almost 4 years–since January 2017), Kitty is finally moving out! YES!

Take a good look at her, ’cause it’s the last time. 😉 I’ve been waiting for this day forever! Maybe that fight with Astrid last week was the last straw! 😀

I’m sure she’ll send me a goodbye litter letter in the mail next time.

Anyway, Bones asked me to catch a dab for him. I agreed to help out, and it didn’t take me long…only four attempts! And one of the other fish I caught was a lobster, so I made some money in the process. I took the dab back to Bones, and he rewarded me with a lattice wall.

I can’t wait to see who my next villager (and final new villager of 2020) will be! Enjoy your weekend, everyone! 🙂

Cranky old Wolfgang had the nerve to ask me for a red snapper tonight.

But it was actually his lucky day, because I decided to be nice for a change and help him out. 😛 Well, I wasn’t sure if I could actually catch one, but I figured I’d at least try.

When I visited Walker, he was practically begging me for medicine, he was so sick. Poor guy.

So I made sure to buy some medicine and walk it back to him. Get well soon, Walker!

Astrid asked me to make a delivery to Kitty, and Kitty was wondering why Astrid would actually send a gift.

The gift was a wrap shirt, and Kitty just thought it was okay. Astrid was not very pleased when I told her Kitty didn’t care for the shirt. But she still gave me a stately wall for making the delivery.

Even though I frequently play this game at night, I was playing even later than usual tonight. In fact, I completely missed out on K.K. Slider’s performance at the Roost! But on the bright side, I did get to hear the 1 a.m. music that I enjoy so much. I don’t hear it very frequently any more, and this was probably the first time since summer.

Bones asked me to catch a lobster for him, and I figured I could look for that and the red snapper at the same time. After about 12 minutes of fishing, I caught a red snapper and took it over to Wolfgang.

Even though it took an “epic battle” to reel in the snapper, Wolfgang only rewarded me with a modern screen.

When I ran into Rasher, he told me that Kitty and Astrid had a fight so bad that they “tore into each other!”

Wow! He didn’t say when the fight took place, but I’m choosing to believe it just happened…right after I told Astrid that Kitty didn’t like her gift. Maybe I helped start the fight, without realizing it! 😛

After about half an hour of fishing, I still never found a lobster for Bones. Sorry, dawg. But on the bright side, I did catch two tuna and four football fish!

I just couldn’t sell them tonight, because the shop was already closed.

I’ll see you all next week with another entry. Depending on which day I blog, there will likely be snow on the ground by then! Winter is coming!

Astrid told me she was feeling out of sorts today. She had something on her mind, and couldn’t think about anything else.

At the Roost, K.K. Slider performed K.K. Ballad for me. From the looks of this screenshot, he must have put himself to sleep. 😛 Just kidding, I do like the song, even though it is a bit slow.

After the show, I shot down a balloon present. It contained a writing chair.

I visited Crazy Redd, and it got me thinking… City Folk is the only Animal Crossing game where you can shop at Redd’s store any day of the week. In the other games, he only shows up once a week (or less). Anyway, Redd had this saw horse for sale today…

It’s an item that’s more suited to outdoor use (on a construction site, for example). But City Folk doesn’t allow you to use furniture outdoors. And oddly enough, this item does not seem to be in New Horizons (the game that does allow outdoor furniture). Nintendo makes some odd decisions sometimes.

I caught a flea that was on Goldie, and she said she feels like she’s my pet! That’s kinda cute! I’d love to have Goldie as a pet! 🙂

Bones asked me to catch a bitterling for him, and Walker wanted me to find his key for him. So I did a little fishing, but I wasn’t having any luck. On what I decided would be my last fish (over the waterfall), I caught Walker’s key. I returned it to him, and he thanked me for making sure he wouldn’t have to nap outside.

I recently posted my annual slideshow of best pictures over the past year. Check out The 12th Year in Pictures!
