It must have been citrus day at Nookington’s. Among the furniture items available today, they had an orange chair, a lime chair, and a grapefruit table.

Outside, Baabara asked me for a new catchphrase and I told her to say “your mom.” As I was trying to get her to use it in a humorous way, she asked me to deliver a letter to Kiki. But then she saw that I didn’t have an empty slot to hold the letter.

Being the genius that she is, she then asked me to take a letter to Rod. Duh. I couldn’t do that either. And then she again asked me to take a letter to Kiki! Again, not possible. At this point, I was sick of talking to her and I moved on.

Static’s replacement has now moved in…into the same exact spot where Static lived! Inside the house, I found Joey the duck. I think I know where he came from… Joey just moved out of my GameCube town the other day. 😉

Crazy Redd was in town, and I used the password “bean curd” to get inside his tent. He had a scary painting for sale for 3,920 bells, so I bought it. Over at the museum, I learned that it was a genuine painting! So Blathers happily accepted it for display in the museum.

Next, I visited Rhonda and saw that she was finally over her cold. She thanked me for the medicine I’ve taken her, and she gave me a token of her appreciation…a grapefruit table. Good thing I didn’t buy that one at the shop (even if it was a juicy deal).

I caught a few fish and bugs, but nothing very valuable. Since I didn’t earn much money tonight (and what little I did earn went to pay for that painting), I didn’t make a house payment this time.

It was storming in Forest tonight, and I spotted something I don’t recall seeing in an Animal Crossing game. Lightning. Not just the flash of light, but actual bolts of lightning up in the sky!

September is here now, and that means the salmon are making their run. I caught both the regular salmon and the king salmon in town.

You may notice a note in a bottle next to me in that picture. I opened it up and it contained a letter from a pen pal.

A new “Talking to Myself” message was posted on the bulletin board outside of town hall. It mentioned a song that’s supposedly popular in other towns.

Today was flea market day, and many of the outdoor villagers were telling me to go home so they could shop. I wasn’t interested, so I carried on. The indoor villagers, of course, offered to sell some of their belongings. But there was one indoor villager who didn’t participate. That was Rhonda, who was still sick. I gave her some medicine once again.

I went to the museum to donate my new fish, and Blathers told me an interesting fact about the king salmon. He said that as it swims upstream to spawn, it doesn’t eat anything along the way.

So when they first start our their journey, they’re all fatties. 😛 (His words.)

I then went downstairs to get a new song for my stereo at home. K.K. Slider performed Señor K.K. for me.

Afterwards, I checked my map and verified that Static’s replacement has not moved in yet. I went over to town hall and made a 30,000 bell mortgage payment before wrapping up my night.

I received Static’s goodbye letter in the mail today. He said that his moving away mostly wasn’t my fault.

Kiki told me I should look forward to the fireworks show coming up on Saturday. However, Saturday will be September 2nd. I’m pretty sure there will not be a fireworks show this Saturday.

Big Top also commented on the “upcoming” fireworks. They must have mistakenly programmed the villagers to talk about fireworks any day in August. Oops.

Just outside of Kiki’s house, I found a four-leaf clover!

Crazy Redd was in town, but his piece of art this week was a common painting. I already have one of those in the museum.

There was a new message of the week posted on the bulletin board, and it says not to ask others to do something you wouldn’t do yourself. Instead, just make them do it. 😀

I was in Nookington’s as the clock struck 11 p.m., just leaving the second floor. After I went down the stairs, I found myself outside. I bypassed the entire first floor! 😛

In Rhonda’s house, I gave the sick rhino another dose of medicine.

After catching a few summer bugs (perhaps my last August bug-hunt), I made a 25,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall. I then headed home.
