Apple’s Pet Beetle?

One of today’s fossils was buried right next to my house. And then two more were right in front of Nook’s Cranny, which is essentially next door! So I basically found three out of four fossils within a 4-second walk from my house. 😀

As you can see, Flick was in town.

Nook’s Cranny was selling magazines today, so I bought a bunch of them so that I could craft a magazine rack and the manga-library wall. I then customized the magazine rack to put bananas on the cover, and I gave it to Louie. 🍌

The empty house plot already had a sign on it; it’s reserved for Lopez the deer. I guess he’s okay, but I would have preferred Cheri. 😛 Oh deer. 🦌

I visited Hornsby’s house to see if he put up the fossil plaque I gave him yesterday. But it was nowhere to be found.

When I visited Apple, she informed me that she had a pet. I figured she was talking about her pet hamster that I gave her, but no. She was talking about a horned dynastid beetle, which she also named Apple.

Apple: Oh, I never told you? Her name is Apple and she's a horned dynastid!

I didn’t see any horned dynastid in her house though, so either she’s lying or she has a large beetle in her pockets. 😛

Celeste was in town, and she gave me a DIY recipe for a Gemini closet.

Celeste: Hootie-toot, I almost forgot! I came across a recipe for an astronomical project in a book and jotted it down.

I made some changes to my amusement park tonight. I put in a new iron fence right along the edge of the lower path/midway, and I removed the simple wooden fence I was using in the backyards of Apple Lane residents. And after I shot down a balloon present containing a plasma ball, I thought that would look cool as an additional prize.

I later spent some Nook Miles to order more public benches, because the park needs more seating.

There was a meteor shower going on, so I wished on several shooting stars. But I spent the rest of my night catching bugs and selling them to Flick. And shortly before I ended my game for the night, Midge taught me the daydreaming reaction.

That’s all for today, but I’ll be back with another entry tomorrow. Hope to see you then. 🙂
