Rod’s Personal Trainers

Static had his furniture all packed up in boxes tonight. I kept talking to him and telling him to stay until he eventually said he might reconsider.

Static: Nobody's ever nice to me. Except you. Sometimes.When I visited Rod, he told me a unique workout tip. He told me to time my sit-ups to the movement of bugs!

Rod: Y'know, if you time your sit-ups to the movement of bugs, you burn MAD carbs!That way, it’s like having a bunch of little personal trainers. Wow, this guy is nuts.

Rod: It's like having miniature personal trainers all over the place, ace!Kiki was still sick tonight, so I bought some medicine for her once again. Get well soon, Kiki!

Kiki: Phew! That stuff works fast! I don't feel like I'm going to pass out anymore!At the bulletin board, this week’s message of the week gave me a chuckle. It’s short, but sweet.

*Message of the Week* Green means go! Unless you're lazy.

After my initial walk around town, I again only found one fossil. So I looked around more, paying special attention the grass/dirt borders where dig spots are harder to see. I then found two things I missed the first time around: One was a fossil and the other was a gyroid.

One of the fossils was a T-rex torso that I donated to the museum. It completed my T-rex! Blathers told me about the T-rex, including a theory that suggests they mostly ate dead dinosaurs. But Blathers considers that theory nonsense, and he said that T-rex was savage.

Blathers: Nonsense, says I. What rot! I still consider T-rex to be a dinosaur most savage!After a quick look at my museum, it appears that I still need about six more fossils before I complete the fossil wing of the museum. Anyway, he’s a look at my newly-completed T-rex.

A complete T-rex fossil at the museum in ACWW.I just uploaded a new Wild World video, Episode 6: Insults & Pitfalls. It covers a lot of happenings in Forest from late October through January. Hopefully it’ll give you a few laughs. 🙂

I’ll be back with another blog entry later this week, probably on Saturday. See you then!

Big Top the Romantic

I found a new house in town tonight, and I was surprised to find out who was inside: Big Top the superhero elephant! I like Big Top a lot, and as some of you already know, I also have him in my New Leaf town. But here, he says everyone calls him Big Top the Romantic. That “everyone” will not include me. 😛

Big Top: Huh huh huh! That's why everyone calls me "Big Top the Romantic."Kiki was sick with a cold, so I bought some medicine for her.

Kiki: I feel better! I... I can feel my toes again!Rod has been asking me for a cockroach for weeks. But the first one I caught (last week) got donated to the museum. So when I finally saw another one on a tree tonight, I knew I had to catch it for Rod.

Rod: What?! You caught one already? That's insane!He was quite happy with it, and he rewarded me by giving me 510 bells.

K.K. Slider was in town, and I attended his show to hear some live music. He performed K.K. Parade for me.

K.K.: I hooked you up with a boot of K.K. Parade.

But K.K. wasn’t the only animal in town that wants a singing career: Puddles told me she wants to put on some live shows too.

Puddles: Y'know, I'm trying to give my singing career a boost with a few live shows.I only found one fossil again today; I took it to the museum and Blathers returned it to me. Then at town hall, I made a 20,000 bell mortgage payment before returning home for the night.

Help Me Help You

Gracie was over at town hall today, along with her car. But I didn’t bother speaking to her this time.

Gracie stands near her car outside of town hall in Animal Crossing: Wild World.A new message of the week on the bulletin board said that exercise relieves stress, but nothing relieves exercise. 😛

*Message of the Week* Exercise relieves stress. Nothing relieves exercise.When I had a chat with Chevre, she told me she was looking for some fossils.

Chevre: J-rock, you have to help me find a fossil! Pleeeeease, la baa!But when I returned with one, there was no option to give it to her! I even had an identified one and an unidentified one in my pockets! So I don’t know why she couldn’t tell I was trying to fulfill her request. Help me help you…

There was a bonfire for sale in Nookington’s tonight, and it was putting out a lot of smoke. The bonfires in other Animal Crossing games don’t smoke like this, so I was a bit surprised to see all the pollution. This doesn’t seem very healthy for Timmy and Tommy to be working up here.

Lots of smoke rises from a bonfire in Nookington's.Outside, Kiki asked me for a new catchphrase. I told her to say “ki ki ki,” which is a reference to another Nintendo character named Kiki. (It’s a monkey from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past).

Kiki: Ki ki ki! I like the sound of that. It makes me sound...dignified.
Yes. As dignified as a greedy monkey.

Kiki also asked me to deliver a letter to Rod for her. I did, and then when I returned to her, Kiki gave me a plaster wall as thanks.

Moe’s replacement has not moved into town yet, so there are still just seven animal villagers.

I made a 20,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall, and then I wrapped up my game for the night.
