Tuesday (July 15th) was Caroline’s birthday, so I headed over to her party. But she seemed surprised to see me, and she didn’t even remember inviting me! Yikes, that made me feel unwanted. 😛

I gave her a rock guitar for her gift, and she seemed to enjoy it. But then again, she said she would’ve been just as happy with my belly button lint. Gross. 🤢

She then gave me a glow clock in exchange for the belly button lint rock guitar. Curt was also at the party, talking about how it must be nice to be young…and then he said “fuzzball.” But that’s just his catchphrase, and he’s not specifically referring to the fuzzy ball of belly button lint that Caroline wanted. 😆

The next day, it was raining in town. Whitney got her outfit wet, and she said it was traumatizing.

Robin realized that she was ten minutes late for the reapplication of her lipstick. Does she apply it to her beak? Because birds don’t have lips. 🤔

Pippy was at home, so I got to see the inside of her house now that she has unpacked. But it looks more like her back yard than the interior of a house. Still, I took a quick nap on her hammock.

Today, Drift told me to get ready to rock…in a very rocky way. 🪨

He thought that expression was “rad enough” to be the catchphrase of the year. But I thought his repetitive remarks and repeated “rocks” render it remarkably redundant.

Curt was sick with a cold today, so I gave him a dose of medicine.

When I visited Caroline, she was (somehow) able to see that I’ve collected every type of bug.

She was amazed and impressed. I know I’ve seen this dialogue before from other characters, but it’s such a cute reaction for villagers to have. 😊

Whitney was packed up and ready to move out of town, but I was able to talk her of it. Unpack your boxes, wolf girl!

Look for the next video episode coming in the next couple days!

On Wednesday, Robin told me that she’s happiest when she can relax in her own home…on a pizza.

Filbert asked me to deliver a letter to Truffles, because he doesn’t trust the post office to get it to the right person.

Even though Filbert didn’t want anyone other than Truffles to read it, Truffles was eager to read it with me. 😆

In the letter, Filbert admitted to eating a 20-pound cherry delight. When I told him the delivery was done, he rewarded me with a stone wall.

Yesterday, I listened in on a conversation: Caroline asked Truffles what kind of cake she would be, if she could be a cake. 😆

Truffles already knew the answer. She’d be a carrot cake. 🥕

Truffles said she thinks about this all the time, and she said she’d have a delicious frosting hat.

Caroline said that she might be a cheesecake because she likes cheese, but she hasn’t put much thought into it. Truffles scolded her for not planning for situations like this. This game is so crazy sometimes.

Today, Tank’s replacement moved in. Say hello to Pippy the rabbit.

I kind of like her, but she’s definitely not one of my favorites. It’s funny though, how villagers can remind you of people (former friends, for example) that really liked that villager.

Even though I do extended bug-catching sessions in Wild World like I do in City Folk, I did catch a couple of elephant beetles tonight.

Have a good weekend, everyone! And good luck with your summer bug hunting, if you’re into that. 🪲

Tuesday was July 1st, and I received my monthly bank statement in the mail. I earned 80,350 bells in interest this month, so I’m up to 80% of the maximum interest payment now!

It was Curt’s birthday, and I remembered to show up to his birthday party. I gave him some chocolates (from Gulliver) for his gift. Happy birthday, Curt!

He gave me a wobbelina to thank me. Caroline was also at the party, but she seemed more interested in the cake than anything else.

On Wednesday, Truffles told me that Tank and Filbert have the kind of friendship that only guys have: They settle arguments with their fists!

If a rhino and a squirrel got into a fist fight, I don’t think the squirrel has a chance at all. Would a rhino even feel a punch from a squirrel? I don’t think so.

Today, I was very surprised to find a goodbye letter from Tank in the mail!

I didn’t play yesterday, but Tank was walking around outside on Wednesday. So this isn’t a matter of him being packed up and me just forgetting to go in his house. If he was leaving this soon, shouldn’t he have been packed up on Wednesday?? I mean, it’s not like I’m crushed by Tank’s departure or anything. But I just don’t understand how things like this happen without notice when I only skipped one day. 🤷‍♂️

Caroline asked me to deliver a letter to Drift, and the clock struck 5:00 p.m. as I found him. The letter itself wasn’t all that interesting (aside from Caroline’s dream of becoming a badminton referee), but I saw Pete flying overhead in the distance. I was mid-conversation with Drift though, so I had no chance of shooting Pete down. Caroline later rewarded me with a chainlink fence.

Robin asked me for some blue furniture, so I checked out the shop to see what they had. I bought a cooler that was very clearly blue. When I took it over to Robin, she said this:

I was sure she about to tell me it’s not blue, and refuse to accept it…but surprisingly, she didn’t. (So why did she have to psych me out like that?) She was happy for the cooler, and she rewarded me with a rock guitar (no strings attached).

After that, I was about to go into town hall to check the recycle bin and wrap up my game for the day. But Whitney pinged me first, and she surprised me by giving me her photo!

After my quick stop in town hall (the recycle bin was empty today), I went home. I put Tank’s pic into storage and put Whitney’s pic on display instead.

Her favorite quote on the back is “If you even THINK about crossing me, just think about these pearly whites!” I never expected Whitney to have one of the most violent quotes in the game. Wow. So much for “Never Stop Crossing;” I better stop crossing Whitney right away. 😛
