Today was my first time playing in December, so I received my monthly bank statement in the mail. I earned 2,090 bells in interest this month.

When I visited Rolf, he told me there is no rational reason why people act the way they do. Very true.

But he wasn’t really making some deep statement about people (or animals) in general. He was just trying to rationalize (or understand) his own desire to find a fossil. 😀

Big Top was all packed up and ready to move out of town. I asked him to stay, and he said there was no changing his mind. So I asked a second time, and he said he’d reconsider. 😛

As I was hitting the daily money rock, Goldie walked behind the rock and prevented one of the money bags from coming out! So I only got six bags of bells instead of the full seven.

Katrina was in town, so I paid 100 bells for her to read my fortune. She started by letting out a scream.

She said that much happiness should come my way…and then she said maybe not. But still, I thought that was a positive fortune. That is, until I went back outside and started falling on my face when I ran around. Oof.

There was a new “Talking to Myself” post on the bulletin board today. The author (Pelly or Phyllis, we may never know which one) said that she misses being on the volleyball team back in middle school.

I found all three of today’s fossils, and two of them were parasaur skulls. I took one of them over to Rolf, and he gave me 520 bells for it. It’s not the best deal for me, of course, but I’m happy to help out my good buddy Rolf.

Rolf complimented me on my hands tonight, saying they looked nimble. And he almost suggested that if we teamed up, we could get away with murder!

I wonder who he had in mind? Any ideas?

My newest resident, Patty the cow, asked me for a new greeting (although I thought she was actually asking for a catchphrase). I told her to say “Got milk?”

Margie gave me a free arctic camo, so I took it over to Mathilda (who had been looking for new clothes). She loved it!

In return, she gave me a blue knit hat.

Wendell was in town, asking for food. So I gave him a carp that I caught in the river.

He gave me the “west pattern,” which is just the horizontal street design (which I already had).

I found all three of today’s fossils again, and I sold fruit until the shop closed (which wasn’t long). 😛 Since this will be the last time I play in November, I put all of my money into the bank to maximize my bank account interest.

I know I’m really overdue for a Wild World video episode, but it’s coming! If all goes well, look for it on Sunday morning. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you in the U.S.! See you next time!

I found all three of today’s fossils, which is something I haven’t done in a while. That’s because I’ve been missing one of them, near the northwest corner of town, since the beginning of October! That area is a dead-end, and I was in the habit of going north along the river as far as I could, and turning back. But today, I went around the trees there, and from the other side, I spotted the elusive fossil.

I think it’s the autumn grass color that makes it harder to find them all this time of year. At least for me with my colorblindness. 😛

Goldie was all packed up and ready to move out of town, but I did not let her go.

Dr. Shrunk was walking around town tonight, but I didn’t even speak with him.

When I visited Patty, she told me that I rule! That caught me by surprise, but she was just practicing giving compliments because Yay Day is coming up. 😛

Big Top was telling me about his superhero alter ego, Fashion Lad. He said he’s saving the world from tackiness, one tube top at a time. 😀

I played a bit later than I usually do, so I didn’t get to sell as much fruit as I have been lately. Oh well. See you next time.
