Crazy Redd was in town today, and I rushed to his tent after reading his letter. It was mainly so that I didn’t forget today’s password, which was “is often empty.” He had a dainty painting for sale.

I bought it for 3,920 bells and took it over to Blathers at the museum. It turned to be a legit piece of art, so I donated it.

Outside, I ran into Joey. He told me that the number of fossils you’ll find in life is predetermined. He said that he’ll be able to find three per day. That’s nice to see the game acknowledge the daily fossil limit, even if there’s not a logical reason for it.

I’m also a bit relieved that there are just three to find each day, since I’ve never found four in Wild World (New Leaf has four per day). I was afraid there was a really well-hidden one somewhere in town that I’d never locate. 😛

There was a new Message of the Week on the bulletin board, and to be honest, I didn’t get it at first. But then it clicked (or should I say snapped).

Puddles was once again impersonating Katrina the fortune teller. This time, she told me to drink buckets of cocoa before bed. If I do that, she won’t be the only Puddles in town.

I had a little chat with Curly outside, and he informed that he was all banana. Alrighty then.

His mood improved a bit later. He asked me for a fossil, and I gave him a dinosaur track that I dug up. He gladly accepted it, and he rewarded me with 510 bells.

After selling some stuff at Nookington’s, I made a 30,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall. I then ended my game for the night.

But there is one other thing I’d like to share. My latest Wild World video is done, showing highlights of events from late September through last Saturday. It’s episode 11 of my series. Hope you enjoy!

Today was La-Di-Day, the day that animals will sing to suggest a new town tune. Rhonda was the first animal of the night to sing for me.

I actually enjoyed her song, so I hired her. That was the first time I’ve hired Rhonda...to sing, at least.

Joey was in a good mood, so he gave me a gift. It was a cabin rug, and he said he trusted me to treat it the way I’d treat him.

There was a new “Talking to Myself” post on the bulletin board, and it was about wriggling worms. Actually, it was mostly about the word “wriggle.”

Since it’s Saturday night, I went down to the Roost to check out some live music. K.K. Slider played Agent K.K. for me.

After the show, I visited Puddles. She said that singing makes her really happy, but it also makes her crave milk shakes. Now she’s making me want one too!

I didn’t bother making a mortgage payment tonight, because I didn’t have much money on me. Nook’s was closed already, so I couldn’t sell the fossils and other stuff I had in my pockets. So I returned home and put my new song in my stereo.

But before I ended my night, I spoke with Kiki again. She was the second animal to sing me a potential town tune. Even though her song wasn’t bad, I really wanted to stick with Rhonda’s song for a while. So as much as I hated to do it, I told Kiki no. She got sad, and wondered if the judges were going to vote her out of the village.

I received a letter from the Happy Room Academy (HRA) today, telling me that my house scored 70,777 points. But the interesting part is that they sent me a gift for exceeding 70,000!

I guess adding Big Top’s pic last time pushed me over the 70k mark. The gift was a one-story model, which is a model of a one-story house, of course. 😛

While fishing by the waterfall, I caught my first large char!

I donated it to the museum, and I noticed that the fish is actually just called a char (not a large char). It kind of annoys me that some fish/bug names aren’t consistent, but oh well. 😛

I found a new house in town; Curly just moved in! He introduced himself, and then he called me skinny!

When I visited Joey, I saw that he had two dharmas in his house. Whyyyyy? They’re kinda creepy-looking…and why does he need two of them?

I ran into Puddles outside, and she was acting a bit weird…saying my lucky sound of the day is ear-splitting opera? What???

I thought she had lost her mind. But it all made sense once she explained herself. She was just making fun of Katrina!

Once I finished making my rounds, I made a 20,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall and then ended my game for the day.
