It’s Tuesday, and that means it’s Crazy Redd’s day to visit in Forest. He had a moving painting for sale, and I took a chance and bought it. The gamble paid off, because it was the real deal! I immediately donated it to the museum.
Nookington’s had a big festive tree for sale, so I also bought it.
When I visited Kiki, she offered me a free space station. She said she already had another one, so I guess she didn’t have the space for it.
I then returned home to put my two new items in my house.
Winter has arrived, so snow now covers the ground and trees. This makes it easier to find fossils and other buried items. The dark star-shaped dig marks stand out against the white snow, so I had no problem finding all three fossils today.
When I ran into Big Top, he asked me what was up with Hopper and Rhonda. The two options were “they’re friends” and “lotsa smooching.” I jokingly picked the latter option, and Big Top was grossed out by the thought. He even said it makes him want to barf. Strong words!
In Joey’s house, I found that the orange duck is moving out of town. I tried just once to get him to change his mind, but that wasn’t enough. I didn’t want to keep trying, so I just let him go.
The apple tree I planted last time is alive and growing, but it hasn’t yielded any apples yet. That should change by next time.
On the bulletin board, this week’s Message of the Week says that it takes strength to fail.
Baabara was out and about, and being as weird as ever. She told me today was her anniversary with fried catfish.
After making a 25,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall, I wrapped up my game for the night. See you next time!
That’s a nice letter, but the most interesting part was the gift that was included…an apple! Forest is an orange town, so that means that this is my first foreign fruit! If you’ve only played New Leaf, you probably don’t understand how this is a big deal.
I cut down an orange tree near town hall and buried the apple in that spot. I should have an apple tree by next week.
But clueless Curly said it was a heart-warming letter! If you say so, bacon brains.
At the Roost, K.K. Slider performed Café K.K. for me.
After shaking a few trees for money bags (and a picnic table), I went to town hall and made a 10,000 bell mortgage payment. Hopefully this will be the last time I only have 10,000 bells to pay.
Kiki was still sick, so I gave her medicine again. The colds last too long in this game; it’s annoying.
But I was already into the dialogue that appears before I enter Redd’s tent. Inside, Redd had a calm painting for sale. I already had one of those in the museum, so I had no interest in buying another one.
Baabara just wanted a new catchphrase. I told her to say “shear me” instead of “your mom.” Big Top had lost interest in me by the time I was done with Baabara, and he did not ping me a third time.
When I spoke with Puddles, she told me her legs felt like lead. So she asked me to give her a piggyback ride home! That gave me a chuckle.
However, she then backed out, saying she didn’t think I was burly enough! How rude! I’m fully capable of giving a frog a good ride!
Rhonda asked if I liked my house, and I said it was alright. She then accused me of caving in on everything. That’s pretty rude, too. She said she doesn’t want me to have to compromise on comfort…on her horn.
I made a 15,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall, and then wrapped up my night in Forest.
