A Tiger Escaped!

Last Thursday, I joked that Rowan wasn’t very happy to see me at his birthday party. But maybe there was more truth to it than I thought. I received Rowan’s goodbye letter in the mail today, completely out of the blue!

Stop cryin', Jeff! I'm hitting the road so I can bulk up my calf muscles. Next time you see me, I'll be RIPPED! Don't cry! -Rowan

I played last Friday, and he was outside walking around. He was not packed up in boxes. I didn’t play again until today (Monday), and he was already gone. Granted, he wasn’t exactly my favorite. But still, I was hoping to earn his photo before he left, and I didn’t even get the chance. I wonder if Rolf talked him into this.

Olivia is the latest villager to come down with a cold. I gave her some medicine on Friday, and then again today.

Olivia: So very sick... If I pass out here, please make sure I have some lipstick on.
I see where your priorities lie. 💄

When I ran into my favorite villager Goldie, she asked me about… taxes?!

Goldie: Hey, sunshine! We don't pay any taxes in Forest, right??
Not until I become mayor.

It turns out she was just wondering how the town could afford such a nice town hall building (and office).

Goldie: So how come they can afford such a nice office?

Don’t worry, Goldie. Someday we won’t be able to afford a proper town hall with postal services or a mayor’s office. Pelly, Phyllis, Pete, and Tortimer will all be unemployed (or dead)!

I know this is a fairly short entry, but I like to post the same day when a villager moves in or out. I’ll be back with another entry later in the week.
