On Sunday morning, I hunted out Joan to buy some turnips…but only the bare minimum. They cost me 1,000 bells.

Margie was still sick, so I bought some medicine for her once again. I also bought my first watering can, and I used it to water some flowers I planted around my house.

Curly told me something very interesting that he saw…

Sounded like a dream, but it wasn’t. However, Curly did admit that he had just rammed his head into a tree while running from bees.

Tonight, Jeremiah told me he was looking forward to the fireworks on Saturday night. But the way he described it didn’t make it sound very enjoyable…

Crazy Redd was in town, and he had a strange painting for sale. Strangely enough, I didn’t need it.

I found a note in a bottle washed up on the beach, and it advised me to call 911 if I see the invisible man.

While fishing, I caught a tire. The amazing part is that it went right through Curly’s head!

There was a new villager in town, Bree the mouse. She just moved in, and it seems that she moved here because of a boy.

After selling some bugs and fish I caught (and putting 100,000 bells into my savings account), I wrapped up my game for the night. See you next time!

Last night, I received Baabara’s goodbye letter in the mail. And I can tell that she really wrote it herself, because it’s all about her. 😛

I found a note in a bottle on the beach, and it was from a “working stiff” who had to work 7.5 hours of overtime on Christmas Eve. Ouch, that’s rough.

I ran into Shrunk, but I didn’t ask him for any new emotions this time. I don’t even use the emotions I have. They’re pretty pointless without online play.

When I ran into Margie, she asked me what type of movies she would be in, if she was a film star. I’ve encountered this bit of dialogue several times before, and they always seem to get upset with either answer (action or romantic comedy). So I left the slider right in the middle, and she was pleased with that answer. She rewarded me with her favorite thing ever: a beige box.

Today, Margie was sick; I guess she just didn’t feel right without her favorite thing ever. 😛 But I gave her some medicine, so hopefully she’ll start to feel better soon.

Crazy Redd was in town with a dainty painting. I have no use for that one, so I left his tent without buying anything.

After making my rounds, I did some fishing and bug-catching. Unfortunately, I wasn’t catching anything new and I was feeling tired and disappointed. So I decided to make one last trip around town. And on that last trip, my luck changed. I caught my first arowana!

Only three more fish to go! On my way over to the museum to donate the arowana, Rosie pinged me. She gave me her picture!

After donating the arowna, I went home to take a look at the picture. I put it in my upstairs room with my nine other villager pics. The quote on the back says “To the president of the Rosie Fan Club.”

It’s a good thing I made that last trip around town!

Tonight, I put up my latest Animal Crossing: Wild World video, Ep. 15. It features highlights from my town over the past two months or so. Here is the video:

The video left off with me making the donation to Boondox last week. Today, I received a letter in response.

A red feather was attached to the letter, so I put it in my hair.

Crazy Redd was in town, and he had a famous painting for sale. That’s one that I still need, so I bought it. Unfortunately, Blathers informed me that it was a fake.

When I visited Baabara, she scolded me for barging into her house. She said I should have offered her a proper greeting. There’s a problem with her suggestion, though: It’s impossible. There is no other way to enter a house in this game.

As you can tell in that picture, she had all her furniture packed up in boxes. I’m letting that hag move out. Good riddance. Baa bye! Don’t get your scraggly wool caught in the door on your way out!

If you’re wondering what life in Forest will be like without a villain, don’t worry. I still have Rocco in town. Lucky me.

On a brighter note, Margie (a nice villager) asked me for a fossil. I was happy to help her out, so I gave her a seismo tail. She thanked me, and then she gave me a Persian rug in return.

I shot down another balloon present tonight, and I was a bit horrified when I saw what it was.

OMG, I shot down the space station! Oops! 😛 I would have put it in my space room, but I already had a space station there.

After making my rounds, I did some fishing and bug-catching. I made some decent catches to sell, including several red snappers, another ocean sunfish, a birdwing butterfly, an emperor butterfly, and a giant snakehead. But I didn’t find anything new for the museum. Maybe by next time!

Update: Oh, one thing I keep forgetting to mention. The pear I planted a couple weeks ago is doing well. So Forest now has a pear tree. I don’t plan on making any more of them, since I haven’t been harvesting fruit much any more, but it’s good to have a little variety varie-tree in town.
