This Flea Won’t Escape

Last Sunday, I played during the daytime and I was planning to return later once the fireworks festival started. However, I completely forgot! So I missed the fireworks again! Fortunately, I still have three more chances, including tomorrow night.

On Tuesday, I noticed something about Bob’s flea. The one in his house, I mean. You know how it’s automatically kept under a glass? His was also inside a sample case. So the flea was under glass twice! Either he really doesn’t want that flea to escape, or he’s making sure the flea gets no fresh air at all. πŸ˜›

The next day, I helped Gullivarrr retrieve his phone from the sea. He thanked me by sending me a pirate barrel in the mail.

On Thursday, I found a lost item (a book) on the ground. But before I could even ask anyone about it, June told me that she lost her journal!

June: I couldn't find it at home, so I've been searching for it outside..

I wanted to tell her that I already found it, but the only options were to say “I’ll keep an eye out” or “Sorry, haven’t seen it.” So I had to start another conversation with her to tell her that I had it. So odd that it works this way. But she was ultimately happy to have the journal back, and she thanked me with a paisley bandanna.

Tonight, I attended K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show, and I was glad to see several villagers in attendance. I asked for a random song, and K.K. performed “K.K. Rally” for me, Bones, Savannah, Bob, and Agent S.

    I’m going to try not to miss the fireworks tomorrow night. And I’ll be back with another entry at some point next week. Hope to see you then!

    Party Week

    Last Saturday (August 1st) was Kid Cat’s birthday. I made sure to attend his party, and I gave him a throwback mitt chair. He loved it!

    Kid Cat, at his birthday party: You get me, in my helmet. You really, totally get me.

    As you can see, Peanut was also at the party to help Kid Cat celebrate. It looked like everyone had a good time! Happy birthday, Kid Cat!

    Last Sunday night, I didn’t start up the game until after midnight. So villagers were talking about the fireworks…that I didn’t even get to see. Oops. πŸ˜†

    Static: There ain't nothing else in the world quite like a fireworks show. What a spectacle that was, on my feet!

    There was another birthday on Tuesday (August 4th): Bones! I gave him a bottled ship (the one that looks like a pirate ship) that I bought at the shop. Happy birthday, Bones!

    Bones, at his birthday party: Ah, cool! A huh huh huh, it's a bottled ship! So cool.
    Bones always cleans up so nicely!

    Savannah was also at the party, and she said my presence made her glad that she didn’t miss the party! While I appreciate the sentiment, that’s kind of rude to the birthday boy! I hope he didn’t hear her say that. πŸ˜›

    Savannah: Having you here makes me glad I didn't miss this birthday party!

    Freya the wolf was camping up at the campsite. I said hello, but I was not interested in asking her to move in (even though she is cute).

    Freya, at the campsite: Well, you're not a shy one, are you? My name's Freya. How kind of you to stop by.

    Today, the terrifying Tabby was traveling through town as a tourist. She said she’ll mosey until she drops. Well, let’s hope that happens soon.

    Tabby: Got me a room at the local hotel, so I reckon I'll mosey till I drop.
    Finally, something to look forward to! πŸ˜†

    Here are a few other quick notes about the past week or so:

    • Last Saturday, K.K. Slider performed “K.K. Song” for me, Merengue, Louie, and Savannah.
    • I helped out Gulliver on Monday, and he sent me a silk hat in the mail.
    • Flick was in town on Thursday, and I sold him 28 bugs for 183,000 bells.
    • Yesterday, I returned Wisp’s spirits to him and he gave me some Casablanca lilies.
    • I completed C.J.’s seasports challenge and then sold him 32 fish for 471,000 bells.
    • Tonight, I told K.K. I was feeling a little blue, and he performed “K.K. Sonata” for me and Savannah.

    Teleporting Tourist

    On Wednesday, Greta the mouse was camping at the campsite. She seemed nice, but I’m really not a fan of her otherwise. The geisha makeup looks a bit weird on her in my opinion, and I’m not big on mice villagers in general, plus she’s a snooty as well.

    Greta, at the campsite: Ah, do you live here? I'm Greta. A pleasure.

    Last night, Kid Cat asked me to catch a horned dynastid for him. I can see why he’d want one. They’re strong, tough, and awesome! πŸ˜› So I caught one for him, and he said he’d reward me with a trophy…

    Kid Cat: Thanks! I got you a trophy for your hard work! OK, it's not a trophy, but take it anyway!

    Not a literal trophy, though. But he did give me his photo again!

    Kid Cat: You scored a point with me today, jetsetter. Have Kid Cat's photo!
    Wait, just one point?

    Yeah, that actually is pretty trophy-like. In New Leaf, I even keep my extra villager photos in my trophy room at the museum.

    Today, Peanut kidnapped me for a mandatory birthday party. (Louie and Static were also there.) I must admit that the piΓ±ata part is still pretty cool. πŸ˜›

    Peanut, Louie, and Static encourage me as I hit the pinata at my birthday party.

    A bit later, I was going into the shop when I saw Gaston walking around outside (as a tourist again).

    Gaston walking around outside just before I enter Nook's Cranny.

    And yet when I got inside the store, Gaston was already in there shopping! What’s up with that?

    Gaston, clearly inside the shop already.
    No one teleports like Gaston.

    Here are a few other quick notes about this week:

    • On Sunday, K.K. Slider performed “K.K. March” for me and Bones.
    • I helped out Gullivarrr on Tuesday, and he sent me a sea captain’s coat.
    • K.K. Slider sang “K.K. Birthday” for me today. Bob and Merengue were also in attendance.

    Have a great weekend, everyone!
