I found Pascal while diving on Sunday, and he told me that he wished he was a bird!

The next day, I found out that Elvis is alive! And I got to meet him! …But it was just Elvis the lion, who was camping in town.

I don’t mean to be cruel, but I wasn’t interested in asking him to move in. I then left his tent quickly; a little less conversation was fine with me.

Now that June is here, sharks now inhabit the ocean waters around my island. Even though the month started on Sunday, I didn’t catch my first shark of the year until yesterday (Friday). Biter late than never!

Tonight, K.K. Slider was in town for his usual Saturday night show. I asked for a random song (as I normally do), and he performed “K.K. Cruisin'” for me and Static. It’s a classic!

Here are a few other quick notes about this week:

• On Monday, I sold 8 bugs to Flick for 33,750 bells.
• Ketchup was sick with a cold today, so I crafted some medicine for her. It made her feel better, and she gave me a tee and towel as thanks.
• I caught two more sharks tonight (a great white and a saw shark).

I’ll see you next time!

Last Sunday, Tex the penguin was camping at the campsite for the 2nd time. I’m not interested in him, but I still said hello (and goodbye).

Ketchup asked me for a new catchphrase on Tuesday, and I told her to say “squeeze me.” You know, like a ketchup bottle. 😛

She was talking about dancing uncontrollably to a samba tune, and she needs help to stop.

Today is K.K. Slider day, and as you know, he practices in the plaza all day long. But here’s one (nitpicky) detail that bothers me. I often see a (fairly) big crowd watching K.K. practice during the day…

And then later, you know, during the actual concert, there’s hardly a soul around!

Ankha and I enjoyed the show, but I wish there was more interest in the actual show than just the warm-ups. 😛

Not much else was going on tonight, but here are a few other quick notes about this week:

• On Tuesday, I sold seven bugs to Flick for 28,500 bells.
• I helped Gulliver on Wednesday, and he sent me an ancient administrator hat. It was hideous. 😆
• Agent S was sick Thursday, so I gave her some medicine. She quickly recovered, and she gave me an athletic jacket.
• I returned a lost item to Peanut, and she thanked me with a sleeveless tunic.

Wednesday was June’s birthday, so I headed over to her birthday party. I gave her a busing station that I bought at Nook’s Cranny. Despite what June said (it was her new catchphrase), it cost a lot more than one bell. 😉

Peanut was also at her party, and she was excited to see June so happy. 🙂

Happy birthday, June! 🎂🎈

The next day, I ran into June at the shop. She said she couldn’t find anything good to buy for one bell. Yeah, you can’t buy much for one bell these days. 😉

Bob asked for a new catchphrase, and I told him to say “for an ugly.”

Yesterday, Merengue also asked me for a new catchphrase. As you can probably see, I’m trying not to ignore these requests lately. So I told Merengue to say “in a pie.”

Since May 18th, the Stamp Rally has been underway. Tonight, I went into the bug exhibit to collect the stamps. I found the stations at the Shady Path, Coconut Corner, and Bug Farms locations.

I took my completed form to Blathers, and he rewarded me with a bug plaque. I later gave it as a gift to Peanut. She gave me a mosaic-tile wall in return.

Here are a few other quick notes about this week:

• I helped Gullivarrr on Tuesday, and he sent me another pirate’s hat.
• On Thursday, I sold 15 fish to C.J. for 135,450 bells.
• Yesterday, I sold 11 bugs to Flick for 41,250 bells.
• Tonight, I asked K.K. Slider for a random song. He performed “K.K. Disco” for me and Ketchup.

The Stamp Rally runs through the end of the month, so you still have time to check it out! I’ll see you next time.
