On Thursday, Biskit sent me a letter telling me he was over his cold. He sent me a caladium to thank me for the medicine I gave him last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My rare catches haven’t been limited to nighttime bugs; I caught a banded dragonfly in the afternoon yesterday!<\/p>\n\n\n

\"Did<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I spotted Saharah in town, and she was looking for old carpeting. I started asking around, and Mint was the first to give me one. But she was adamant that I shouldn’t tell anyone about it for some reason.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Mint:
You know Felicity is right behind you, right?
With her big ears, you know she hears you.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Biskit also had an old carpet to give me, and he was much <\/strong>nicer about it. He was very happy to be able to help out!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Biskit:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

None of my other villagers were able to help out, though. Fortunately, I had an old flooring in storage. I took the three of them over to Saharah, and she gave me a concrete floor in return. That’s always a hard thing to accept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I played last night to hunt some bugs, and Marina asked me for a new catchphrase. I told her to say “I’m afraid,” although I’m not yet sure how this will work out. Hopefully she’ll use it in some funny ways in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Marina:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Monty wanted to trade a skull shirt for my fruit beetle, and I agreed to the trade. I don’t care about fruit beetles. But his catchphrase made it sound like he was handing me his poop. \ud83d\udca9<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Monty:
On second thought, you can keep it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Today, I gave out another new catchphrase, this time to Felicity. I told her to say “in my tea.” We’ll have to wait and tea<\/em> how that one turns out too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later on, I attended K.K. Slider’s concert at the Roost. I asked for a random song, and he performed “K.K. Mambo” for me. It may not be one of the more popular songs, but it’s a pretty good song.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"K.K.:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I found a doghouse in the recycle bin at town hall. Even though it looked a bit ruff<\/em>, I took it so I can give it a new leash <\/em>on life. \ud83d\udc36<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I went on another late-night bug hunt tonight, but it was a relatively short session (at least compared my other ones lately). But I still made about 170k on the night. There’s still three weeks to go in peak bug season, and I’ll have to go on a bug hunt during a fireworks festival this month. It may not be this weekend, though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
