First Balloon Present

I recently saw a balloon present floating overhead, so I grabbed my slingshot and headed to the north part of town.

A balloon present flying overhead in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

My first shot missed its mark, but my 2nd shot was a direct hit! Inside the box, I found a CD player. Not the greatest discovery, but at least I’ve finally shot down my first balloon present!

A new “Talking to Myself” message was posted to the bulletin board on Saturday. The author wonders why she’s still single since she’s cute and smart. It’s not that simple, Miss Pelican. 😛

-Talking to Myself- I don't mean to brag or anything, but I'm both cute AND smart! So why am I still single?

Speaking of Love, Bud showed me an odd love letter he got from a secret admirer. Mrs. Potato Head, apparently.

Dearest muffin, Your nose is like a succulent new potato. Plucked at the height of ...er... the potato season! -Your Secret Admirer
I imagine this is what Farmers Only is like.

At the Roost, K.K. Slider performed K.K. Folk for me. No city, just folk.

Today, Crazy Redd was in town. And he must be crazy, because he had the same painting for sale that he had last week: the calm painting! This time, I did not remain calm. I stormed out of that con man’s tent, vowing never to return. Or at least, until next week.

Kiki was still sick, so I gave her some medicine again. She said I looked like I needed some medicine too.

Kiki: I feel so much better now! Maybe you should also have some. You look a bit pasty.
That’s not nice.

I noticed that Margie had a flea jumping on her, so I got my net out and caught it. Margie couldn’t believe that she had fleas! So she put her trunk in my mouth?

Margie: Oh, no! But I wash every day, tootie! I can't believe this!

I almost have enough money for my next Boondox donation, so look out for that next time. Have a good day!

Rocco’s Arrival

On Saturday, I received Hopper’s goodbye letter in the mail.

Bye, Jeff, Due to circumstances out of my control, I had to move. Yeah, I know. Lame. Now STOP CRYING! Geez! Bye, chump. -Hopper

I then found a note in a bottle on the beach, and it contained a letter from a husband to a wife.

To my beloved wife, I'm not the best at expressing myself, but I appreciate you more than words can say. Thanks. -Your loving husband
Maybe tell her in person instead? She’s never going to read this.

I caught two new fish I needed, a piranha and a giant snakehead. Of course, I quickly donated them both to the museum.

I caught a giant snakehead! ACK! It's got a huge head!
Can I keep the fish, but throw Baabara back?

Later on, at the Roost, K.K. Slider performed K.K. Chorale for me.

I played again tonight, and Kiki was sick. I gave her some medicine, so hopefully she’ll get better and not bug me for medicine ever again.

Big Top was talking about Curly and Margie, wondering if they were dating or just friends. I gave a neutral answer when he asked me about it, and he said that he just likes talking about other people.

Big Top: I just love talking about other people! It's almost as fun as eating!

Crazy Redd was in town, trying to sell me a calm painting. I kept calm and walked right out of his tent.

Blathers seemed smitten with an “elegant lady” from the big city that recently visited the museum. Even though he said otherwise, it was clear by the way he kept going on and on about her.

Blathers: I assure you, I am NOT smitten with this lovely, bewitching older woman!

There was a new house in town, and I found Rocco the hippo inside. I’m not exactly shouting hip-hip-hooray over his arrival.

Rocco: Oh, hey, we haven't met yet, have we? My name is Rocco.

Hopper Hops Away

On Saturday night, I listened in on a conversation between Baabara and Margie. Well, it was pretty one-sided, actually. Baabara was telling Margie how boring she is. She even made Margie cry! It’s one thing to be rude to me, but to be rude to innocent Margie?

Baabara: Whenever I talk to you, Margie, I get really bored, shear me.

Down in the Roost, K.K. Slider performed K.K. Ska for me.

I played again tonight, and Big Top told me he was obsessed with football lately. But then he admitted he just wanted us to like the same things, so things wouldn’t be awkward when we’re together.

Big Top: I just want us to like the same things. Then we won't have many weird silences.

Crazy Redd had another painting I didn’t need again this week: the moving painting.

When I visited Hopper, he told me that he was leaving Forest. Since I already have his picture, and I already have a rude villager (Baabara) if I need to be insulted, I decided to let him go. Baabara alone produces more then enough negativity for the whole town. 😛

Hopper: Hey, J-rock. I wasn't gonna tell anyone, but... I'm leaving Forest.
k bye

The latest “Message of the Week” on the bulletin board says that midnight eating is bad…but it feels so good.

*Message of the Week* Eating at midnight is bad. But if feels so good!

I visited Baabara in her house tonight, and she was telling me about the type of clothes she likes to buy…wool! How fitting! Although…doesn’t she have enough of her own? Why the need to buy more?

Baabara: Wool, of course! It's fluffy and warm, but also light. It is the ultimate in comfort!
Ewe would say that.

Curly asked me for a new catchphrase, and I cooked up something meaty from the past. I gave him a catchphrase I also gave him in ACCF back in 2011…baconballs!

Curly: Hey you! Baconballs! ...Oh yeah! Nice! NICE!

Shortly after that, I wrapped up my game for the night. Have a good day, night, and week! See you next time.
