I received an unexpected letter from Lyle in the mail today. He mentioned that I recently got stung by a bee, and he sent me 100 bells (for my pain and suffering, I suppose). I guess that’s nice, but 100 bells is virtually nothing. It would take a lot of bee stings to get my money back from Lyle.

I visited Joey, and he was clearly still sick…in the head.

I gave him some medicine once again.

Crazy Redd was in town, and he had this perfect painting for sale. He also had a Triforce, but I only bought the painting this time.

It cost 3,920 bells, but it was worth it. That’s because it turned out to be a real painting, and I donated it to the museum.

Out in the rain (yes, it was storming again), Baabara pinged me. She surprised me by giving me her picture!

I didn’t necessarily want her picture, but I’ll take it. It is the fifth villager picture I’ve received so far.

The quote on her picture is “I’m so soft that I don’t even need a pillow!”

I didn’t make it to the store before it closed tonight, so I was unable to sell my belongings. So I didn’t earn any money other than the money rock and the 100 bells from Lyle.

It was storming in town tonight, just like it was last Saturday. I got a letter in the mail from Mom, and she wrote about how autumn snuck up on us.

Today is La-Di-Day, so the animals in town were talking about their singing skills. Kiki even said that’s going to become a superstar! Good luck, Kiki!

Joey the duck was sick with a cold, so I gave him some medicine. He flipped for it. Get well soon, ducky.

A new “Talking to Myself” message on the bulletin board talked about safety. The author always sets things down horizontally instead of vertically.

I went to the museum, where Blathers identified some dino droppings for me. And downstairs in the Roost, K.K. Slider performed a waltz.

In front of town hall, Hopper asked me if I was from the countryside. The option for yes was “wooo-haaa!” which I thought was pretty funny. 😀

My villagers continued to talk about the (potentially) new town tune, but no one actually sang one for me. That’s because I generally just talked to each villager once, and they don’t usually sing unless you talk to them a few times. Oh well, I’m fine with the town tune we have now.

I did a little fishing, but not much. I saw some large fish shadows in the ocean, but none of the were coelacanths. Every one was either a sea bass or a salmon.

I wrapped up my night by making a 25,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall.

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.
