Snow is Lazy?

It was snowing in town tonight, and that was a huge relief. That meant I didn’t have to water my (many) wilted flowers.

There was a new Message of the Week posted to the bulletin board: It said advice is easy, but listening is hard. Very true.

*Message of the Week* Advice is easy. Listening is hard.

Crazy Redd had a worthy painting up for sale, but I didn’t need that one. I can’t wait until I complete my painting collection so I never have to deal with this painting nonsense again. Well, at least not in this game.

I ran into Roald the penguin, and he told me that snow is so lazy that it’s disgusting. I didn’t really understand what he meant.

Roald: Snow is so lazy! It's disgusting! Look at it, loafin' around like that!

But then he said something I totally was not expecting. He said it reminded him of me!

Roald: Kinda reminds me of you, b-b-buddy!

Is he trying to get on my bad side? Because it’s working…

When I visited Big Top, I saw that his house was completely empty. He was trying to move out of town! But of course, I made him reconsider.

Big Top: Wow. I wasn't expecting that response... Maybe I'll think it over once more.

Bright Nights 2019

I played on Saturday, and Gaston told me it was colder than an icicle’s armpit outside. That’s an interesting comparison. I certainly haven’t heard that one before.

Gaston: It's colder than an icicle's armpit out here, mon chou!

Near the river, I spotted some purple tulips! That’s another hybrid I can use to attract a peacock butterfly next month.

When I played tonight, I learned that the Bright Nights festival was underway! Cool! That means festive lights will decorate some trees around town, and also the villagers’ houses.

Tortimer was outside of town hall for the occasion, and he asked me whose house looked the best. I told him Kiki, and he said he’d give her a congratulatory slap on the back.

Tortimer: After all, I am the mayor! And a slap from me is better than a cookie!

The only downside of the event is that Crazy Redd wasn’t in town this week. Well, I guess there was one other downside. Jeremiah got an attitude after he heard that I liked Kiki’s house the best.

Jeremiah: Well, I guess there's no accounting for taste. Especially bad taste!
Salty frog.

One other thing I noticed tonight, was the new moon in the sky. I’m not sure why it caught my eye, but it did. 😛

Rosie suggested a new nickname for me, “Sugar J.” I was actually going to accept it, but I clicked the wrong option. For some reason, the decline option is first and the accept option is second when they offer new nicknames in Wild World. I almost always click the wrong thing, out of habit. But since I declined, I had to choose something. So I made Rosie declare me to be the mayor. 😛

Rosie: OK then! Done! Hooray! From now on, you're always gonna be mayor!

If you’re looking to check out Bright Nights, you have the rest of this week to do it. And speaking of Bright Nights, they make a brief appearance in my latest video: 13 Things I’d Like to See in Animal Crossing Switch. Give it a watch if you’d like, and have a great day! 🙂

Double Dark Chocolate

Thanks to a message on the bulletin board, I learned that I missed Margie’s birthday yesterday. Oops.

-Happy Birthday- Today is Margie's birthday! Margie is now one step closer to being an adult. Bring 'em a present!

In front of town hall, Crazy Redd had his tent set up. Inside, he had a rare painting for sale. That’s the same one he had last week (and it was real), so I didn’t need to buy it again.

Bree asked me to deliver a present (an orange jumpsuit) to Roald, and I agreed to help out. Roald didn’t enjoy the gift, but Bree still rewarded me with 500 bells for making the delivery.

Rosie had a surprising question for me tonight. She asked if she got me a double dark chocolate! Huh?

Rosie: (Did I) get you a double dark chocolate?

If she had done that, I certainly would have remembered! But she did not. However, she seemed to think otherwise, and she said I could pay her back with double interest. Yeah, don’t count on that happening, Rosie.

Rosie: You can just pay me back with double interest!

After making my rounds, I started shaking some trees. I found a robo-clock and a few bags of bells, but I also got stung by bees a couple of times. Even though it looked like my glasses hid my swollen eye, Big Top had the decency to let me know that my face looks terrible. Thanks, big guy.

Big Top: Whoa! What happened?! Your face, mayor! It looks terrible! Baconballs!
