I got my hopes up when I saw that Nookington’s had a spotlight product today. But it turned out to be a mummy’s casket, which I’ve already bought before. 🙁 But they also had a Nintendo bench, and I was shocked when I saw the price: Only 96 bells! Really? Wow! I bought it instantly, even though I already have one in my house.

But the real reason I bought it (besides the great price) is that today is Victoria’s birthday. I headed over to her house for the birthday party, and Mathilda was also there to help her celebrate.

I gave her the bench for her birthday present, and she really, really seemed to like it!

Today was La-Di-Day, but nobody actually sang a song for me. You typically have to speak with someone repeatedly before they’ll do that, and I basically just chatted with each villager no more than twice.

K.K. Slider was performing at the Roost, and I asked him for a random song. He played K.K. Faire, which is one of my favorites!

I collected and sold some fruit, but I also made a few nice catches: a shark, a goliath beetle, and two red snappers. I made about 95k on the night.

I saw a letter from Victoria in the mail today, and I thought it was a goodbye letter. Until I opened it, that is. 😛 She was just reminding me that her birthday is coming up next week, on July 11th. I’m not sure if I’ll be playing that day or not, but I’m not going to go out of my way to make it to her party.

Today was flea market day in Wild World, and Big Top wasted no time in trying to guilt me into buying something. He said that no one ever tells him what piece of furniture in his house that they like best…

But he said surely I would, since I’m one of his best buddies.

It actually worked. 😛 I went over to his lime chair, and he told me he’d sell it for 330 bells. That was cheap enough, so I bought it.

It was raining in town, and Victoria was trying to look on the bright side. She said at least we don’t need to water the flowers today. Yeah, that would be a good thing…if I hadn’t already let 95% of the flowers in town die earlier this year. 😂

Benedict wanted me to open a can of food of his that expired on the 4th of last year. (That’s what he said. He didn’t give a month). I agreed to help him out, and oddly, the game gave me a slider for deciding whether I would open the can or leave it closed.

Once I opened it, he said there was a weird sparkling water-colored thing inside. And he said it stinks. I just wondered what he was expecting, if it expired last year.

Antonio wasn’t participating in the flea market, because he was trying to move out of town! I changed his mind for him, however.

Happy 4th of July! I’ll be back with another entry next week.

Pascal was in town today, and he told me that salespeople sell their truth at half off. That’s an interesting way of looking at it…and he’s basically right.

He then gave me a sea view (wallpaper) and jumped into the ocean.

I visited Goldie, and she told me a story about one time she tried doing some tae kwon do with a mouth full of banana bread. It turned out that the banana bread got stuck in her throat! Oh no, poor doggy!

It was nearly 11 p.m. when I started the game up tonight, so I didn’t have much chance to sell things. In fact, I only managed to sell one load of fruit (plus the sea view from Pascal). Even with me finding the money rock later, I only made a total of 14k on the day. Not good.

Kabuki was sick, and I couldn’t buy any medicine for him. However, I checked my storage at home and found one dose of medicine there. I took it over to Kabuki; get well soon!

At town hall, Phyllis had some dialogue about coffee for me! She asked if I was a coffee drinker. I am.

She told me I should go to the Roost and get a cup of the best coffee in town. (It’s also the only coffee in town). 😉

So I did go down to the Roost, and I was very surprised to see Harriet there! I don’t think I’ve seen her there before, in any game!

Have a good night, everyone! See you next time.
