Yesterday, Truffles was talking about how cute she looked in her diamond shirt. She even (falsely) claimed that she spent a fortune on it! 😮

I know it’s not true because I bought it for her myself! Whatever “fortune” she’s talking about must be a pig-ment of her imagination.

It was Tank’s birthday, so I headed over to his party.

I gave him a Moai statue that I got from Gulliver a while back. (I’ve been keeping a couple furniture items in my pockets for situations like this.) He seemed to enjoy the gift, and he gave me a black bishop in return. He even said now we’re best friends until the end of the universe!

Caroline was also at Tank’s party, and she had an interesting idiom about cake. Too bad this game doesn’t even have cake at birthday parties. 😛🎂

Today, Drift was talking about how seeing the frothy sea makes him want to catch some huge fish.

He said it would be a “hot adventure” of fish vs. abs. Drift is a weird dude.

Whitney seemed really excited about the bear shirt that I gave her last week. It’s nice to see them follow up about things like this. I’m glad she likes it so much! 😊

I could only find one of today’s fossils, despite taking an extra walk around town specifically looking for them! I’ll have to try again (and look harder) next time. 😛

On Wednesday, Robin told me she’s been collecting blue furniture lately.

I took a look in the shop, and they had an elephant slide, which is partially blue. I bought it and took it over to Robin, and she said she didn’t even remember asking me for blue furniture! Even though only three minutes had passed! 😆

But still, she accepted the gift. She rewarded me with some checkered tile.

Yesterday was the start of May, so I received my monthly bank statement in the mail. I earned 76,900 bells in interest this month.

Saharah was in town, and she again lost all her addresses.

I helped her out by taking a rug to Mabel, some wallpaper to Pelly (for Phyllis), and some wallpaper to Blathers. In return, Saharah offered me a concrete floor. That’s a solid reward, and it’s a good way to cement our friendship. 😉

Flea Market day is coming up on Saturday, and Truffles was looking forward to it. Except that she had a different name for it: Sell-Your-Lame-Old-Junk Day. 😆

Caroline asked me to deliver a gift to Tank today, and it was a Nile shirt. He said it was “great,” but he followed that up with “I guess.” So it didn’t exactly sound convincing. Or maybe he was in de Nile.

I returned to Caroline and told her I made the delivery. She asked what Tank thought of it, and I said it was awesome. I didn’t tell her about the “I guess” remark. 😛

She then rewarded me with 510 bells.

Whitney asked me for some new clothes, so I bought her a bear shirt at Able Sisters. It may not be flashy, but it’s good for when she just wants the bear essentials.

She rewarded me with a pink tartan. I wonder why she didn’t just wear this instead of asking me for clothes? 😛

Here are a few other quick notes about this week:

• I shot down a yellow balloon present yesterday, and I found an automatic washer inside.
• Curt came down with a cold this week, so I gave him some medicine yesterday and today.
• Over at town hall, I found a classic buffet in the recycle bin. I guess it was a leftover from a feast that didn’t pan out.

On Wednesday, Drift was telling me about how he used to sell seashells to Tom Nook when times were tough. He wondered what Tom Nook does with all of them, and this started out like dialogue I saw back in January…

But this time, he didn’t suggest that Tom Nook made swimming suits out of them. Instead, his theory was even more crazy: He wondered if Tom Nook eats the shells!

He said he thinks that Tom Nook will eat anything, regardless of whether it has amino acids. 🤔

Today, I listened in on a conversation between Truffles and Tank. Truffles accused Tank of following her around, but Tank said she was just in the way of his jogging path.

The weird conversation got even weirder when Truffles slopped another accusation at Tank: She said he’s secretly in love with her! 😆

Tank got angry, and said the only thing he’s married to is his weight bench.

Truffles didn’t believe him, but she walked off anyway. Quite an interesting chat they had!

Later on, Caroline asked me to deliver a gift to Drift, on fire! 🔥

The gift was a No. 5 shirt, and Drift didn’t seem particularly impressed by it. But Caroline rewarded me with 510 bells for making the delivery.
