Flowers, Cake, & A Lucky Unitard

I’ve been planting a lot of flowers around my house, and watering the wilties, as I try to grow some hybrids. I realize the area shown in this picture isn’t ideal for hybrid production, since they’re all jumbled together, but I have other areas for specific flowers (one area for roses, one for tulips, etc.).

Jeff's flower garden in Animal Crossing: Wild World.
That’s one sad little dude.

From what I’ve read, I need some blue, purple, and/or black flowers to attract a peacock butterfly. Hopefully I can grow a few of those one day soon.

A new “Talking to Myself” message was posted to the bulletin board. The author apparently wears a bathing suit in the tub, in case of an earthquake.

-Talking to Myself- I wear a bathing suit in the tub, in case of an earthquake. Maybe I watch too much TV.
Yeah, that swimsuit sure will protect you from the falling debris.

Jeremiah was feeling sick, and coughing like crazy. Maybe he had a frog in his throat. So I bought the blue dude some medicine. Get well soon, little guy!

Jeremiah: HACKity! HWEEZE HWEEZE! Thanks... HWEEZE! Now let me choke this stuff down.

I did a little fishing and bug-catching, but I didn’t catch anything new. But a hammerhead shark and an elephant beetle earned me a good chunk of bells.

I’ve saved up another 300,000 bells, so it was time for me to make another donation to Boondox. Pelly informed me that they needed a cake shop. Yeah, don’t we all? It’s not exactly a necessity though, so I’m starting to question the legitimacy of this charity.

Pelly: We just received a request from Boondox to build a cake shop...

I listened in on a conversation between Rocco and Curly, and they were talking about wrestling. Apparently Curly has beaten Rocco several times in a row, so Curly is going to let Rocco wear his lucky unitard next time.

Curly: Oh, Rocco! Next time we wrestle, you can wear my lucky unitard!
If only I could un-listen to this conversation.

This isn’t the first time Curly has mentioned unitards; he accused me of wanting to try on his leotards last December. Wow, I guess he was serious about having a unitard stash!

Have a good day (or night) and I’ll see you next time.

Scarab Beetle

One night last week, I went bug-hunting late at night in search of a rare scarab beetle. It took me a while, but I eventually found one and caught it!

I caught a scarab beetle! It looks like a jewel!

I rushed over to the museum to donate it, and Blathers seemed impressed that I donated such a valuable insect.

Blathers: Disgusted I may be, but I shan't turn down such a pricey donation! Cheers!

And with that, I only need one more bug for the museum–the peacock butterfly.

Today, Big Top wanted to move out of town…but I talked him out of it.

Rosie asked me to guess what she had for lunch last week. I guessed five pickles.

Rosie: Question!! What did I have for LUNCH last week? >Five pickles

Surprisingly, that was actually the right answer! She gave me a red boom box for guessing correctly.

When I visited Jeremiah, he told me that Rocco and Big Top haven’t been getting along lately. That part didn’t surprise me at all. But then he said it was Big Top that was looking for trouble! I don’t believe that for a second!

Jeremiah: Big Top was the one who was looking for trouble in the first place!

Margie asked me for a fossil, so I gave her a parasaur tail. She was impressed by it, and she gave me a red armchair as thanks. She also put the fossil on display in her house.

Margie: Holy cow! Wow, thank you! I've wanted this for a real long time, tootie!

Two A Bugs

The turnips I bought nine days ago have now spoiled…just as I planned. I used them to lure an ant, which I caught easily.

I caught an ant! Ant misbehavin'!

And near my new flower garden (where most of the flowers were wilted), I caught my first agrias butterfly!

I caught an agrias butterfly! It's so vibrant and lovely!

I donated both new “A” bugs to the museum. Only two more bugs to go!

The day was going well, until I saw that Kiki had her furniture packed up in boxes! But I persuaded her to reconsider.

Jeremiah told me that Rocco’s birthday is coming up on the 18th, which is Saturday. He said Rocco probably wants a goblet for his gift, but Jeremiah would prefer a banana.

Jeremiah: If it were my birthday, I guess I would want a banana...

I have no plans of attending Rocco’s party. But speaking of the devil, I visited him…and he started screaming at me. He yelled at me, telling me not to yell. But I wasn’t yelling. Wow, this overgrown construction sign needs to hit the road.

Rocco: You don't go into a home AND YELL AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS! I CAN HEAR YOU!
Then hear this: GET OUT OF MY TOWN!

Big Top asked me to catch a puffer fish for him, and I did. He rewarded me with 500 bells.

I then listened in on an odd conversation between Rosie and Bree. They were talking about each other’s legs, and Rosie said Bree had mango mousse legs (yes, she said mousse, not mouse). She then said she wanted to munch on Bree’s legs! o.O

Rosie: Because, when I look at 'em, I just want to munch on 'em!
I bet Tom and Jerry never had discussions like this.

That’s all I have for now, but I’ll see you next time!
