Yesterday, Gullivarrr sent me a pirate dress in the mail. It’s getting to the point that it’s almost not worth helping Gullivarrr out when all he sends me are duplicates of clothing items I’ll never wear.

Label was in town, and she wanted to see me in an outdoorsy outfit. I put on some outdoor shorts and an outback hat to go along with my skull tee (and impish wings, which I actually forgot I was wearing). I was slightly surprised when Label mentioned that it was fashion perfection…but I’ll take it!

She rewarded me with a Labelle skirt. Wow, so I got a skirt and a dress from special characters on the same day. What’s next, a tutu?

Today, Agent S sent me a letter with a fashion item she wanted me to wear. So I checked the attached item, and it was a paper bag! I decided to put it on.

When I visited her, she told me that if I poke Agent S, she rolls up into a ball! Is she Samus Aran? 😀

But actually, she was talking about her pet pill bug, who is also named Agent S.

I found Cobb the ugly green pig hanging out in a tent at the campsite. I should have given him the paper bag to wear. 😀

While I was doing some fishing (for a Nook Miles+ goal), I noticed Tia lying on a throwback race-car bed up on Rainbow Road! I don’t recall seeing a villager do that before! But she quickly stood back up, as I reeled in the fish. I guess it was just a quick nap.

I posted a new video today, ranking my top ten most-wanted new features from the recent Nintendo Direct. Check it out if you’re interested, and let me know what features you’re looking forward to most!

See you all next time!

On Sunday, I was clearing out some old mail and a previous letter from Jolly Redd was taking a while to load. It eventually showed up…but on invisible stationery! Just the text appeared, floating in air!

When the Forest Bureau of Investigation demanded more transparency about Redd’s business practices, this isn’t what they had in mind! 😛 But seriously, what an odd glitch! Unless that stationery got removed from the game or something? I don’t know, it was weird!

Wisp was in town, but he was a bit hard to reach. I had to use my ladder to climb up the little cliff near my arches.

I collected his five spirits for him, and in return, he gave me a hammock. I sure couldn’t use it up there, though!

Today, there was a heavy meteor shower, and Gullivarrr was in town. I wished on quite a few shooting stars.

I found Gullivarrr’s communicator on my very first dive. So I returned it to him, and he will send me a reward in the mail tomorrow. Celeste was also in town, and she gave me five star fragments to use for crafting.

When I visited Hornsby, he told me that he loves split-pea soup so much that he’s been eating it for every meal. And every snack time, too…

So then he wondered why he’s getting tired of it. 😂 Yeah, I wonder why. 😛

Not much else was going on tonight. But I’ll see you all again soon. Have a good night (or day)!

Yesterday, I seemingly walked into a squirrel party. Agent S was visiting Static, and I felt so tall.

And yes, I’ve been giving Static spooky furniture just about every day. 😛 I’m actually surprised he doesn’t have more of it on display by now.

Marina was sleeping on the ground, near the river bank. Since I was already dressed as Jack, I tried to scare her…but it didn’t work. 😛

Saharah was in town, and I bought an exquisite wall and a Saharah’s desert from her.

Tonight was K.K. Slider night, and the singing dog performed K.K. Cruisin’ for me, Apple, and Eloise. It was a good show.

I didn’t see Static anywhere in town tonight, and he wasn’t at home either. So after I changed my clothes, I looked for him up at the museum. I found him in the art gallery, under The Thinker. I handed him a wrapped spooky tree, and he rewarded me with his photo!

When I took his photo home, I was surprised that he looks so sad in his picture!

Static has only lived in town for three and a half weeks, so I think this might be my quickest photo yet. His favorite quote on the back is “Lightning never strikes twice.”

Today, I posted my thoughts and impressions of yesterday’s Nintendo Direct about the New Horizons 2.0 update that’s coming in November. Check it out if you’d like.

See you all next time!
