On Thursday, Chief was talking about the upcoming Bug-Off. He said he’s going to love watching me hopelessly chase after bugs! It sounds like he doesn’t have much faith in me.

But I probably won’t be playing on Sunday for the event anyway, so I guess I can’t prove him wrong this time. 😛

Saharah was in town, asking me to help make deliveries for her. But she was really up in my face!

I took some carpeting over to Pelly (for Phyllis) and some wallpaper to Mabel at Able Sisters. And unlike last time, I actually remembered to return to Saharah to collect my reward. 😆 She gave me a meadow vista.

Pippy asked if I liked her clothes, and I must’ve picked the sweet spot on the slider. She was thrilled that I liked her style, even though she kind of insulted the rest of the town in the process.

Marina was still sick with a cold, so I gave her some more medicine. But by yesterday, she was finally feeling better. She thanked me for the medicine and she gave me a Persian rug.

It was raining in town yesterday, and Derwin said it was a great day for staying home and sleeping. Except that he was outside instead, getting rained on. (And not sleeping.)

But he has been annoying me lately. All he ever wants to do is have a competition to see who can catch a rarer bug. That’s all he ever says any more, and I’m not interested.

Tonight, I went over to the Roost for K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show. He performed “K.K. Gumbo” for me.

After the show, Chief had a pop quiz for me. He said if I answered correctly, he’d give me something “unbelievably good.”

So he asked me how he was feeling, and I guessed that he was feeling “fine.” That was correct, and he gave me a lab wall. I don’t see how that’s an “unbelievably good” item, but I guess I’ll take it.

I listened in on a conversation between Whitney and Pippy on Wednesday, and Whitney delivered some scathing remarks to Pippy. She said Pippy is destined to just be a cheerleader for someone else, never the star of the show.

Pippy angrily replied that she is indeed a rising star herself, and she threatened to bust out her “jazz hands.” 😆

But Whitney continued piling it on, telling Pippy it must be nice to live life outside of the public eye, never having to comb her hair or dress respectably! 😱

Whitney is so mean in this game. I like her as a character overall, but I can’t really defend her at times like this. 😛

Today, Pippy was packed up and ready to move out of town! Did the fight with Whitney upset her that much? But I asked her to stick around in Forest, even though it took a few tries to change her mind.

Whitney mentioned that June 15th is Maple’s birthday…

She wondered if she should give Maple a present, or if her presence was enough of a gift already. She said that she always gives way more than she gets, so she reasoned that she should be the one getting gifts! For Maple’s birthday!

Wow. Just wow. Whitney is coming off as extremely rude and selfish this week.

Marina has still been sick this week, so I gave her more medicine Wednesday, yesterday, and today. Hopefully she’ll be getting over this cold soon.

Down on the beach, I found this note in a bottle from “Tom.” I’ve seen this one before, years ago, but I don’t think I ever figured out which Tom it’s from. It doesn’t sound like Tom Nook, but is it Tom the cat? Or just some random Tom?

On Thursday, I received my monthly bank statement from the postal division at town hall. This month, I have finally earned the maximum amount of interest: 99,999 bells! I’ll now be getting this amount every month for the life of my town.

Chief asked me if I’ve ever touched a spider. Not on purpose, but yes! Or maybe it’s more accurate to say that the spider touched me. 🕷️

Saharah was in town, and she asked me to deliver a rug to Blathers, a carpet to Tom Nook, and some wallpaper to Mabel.

But as I was in Able Sisters, I noticed that lightning shirt in the background there. I went over to buy it, and I also put it on…even though I’m actually wearing it in City Folk right now too. Unfortunately, the fashion distraction made me forget to return to Saharah for my reward!

Yesterday, Pippy asked me to deliver a letter to Maple. And Maple loved it more than thought was possible! I guess she had maximum interest in it. 😛 She really flipped over it!

When I returned to Pippy and told her the news, she rewarded me with what she called my “favorite:” a cowhide rug. I’m not sure where she’s getting her info, but that’s not my favorite anything. 😛

Today, the Flea Market was underway. I wasn’t interested in buying anything though, so Truffles called me a cheapskate (under her breath).

You gotta love Flea Market day. It gives you the option to buy your villagers’ junk…or be insulted for not buying it. Your choice.

Marina was sick with a cold today, so I gave her some medicine. Get well soon, Marina!

I went over to the Roost tonight to check out K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show. I asked for a random song, and he performed “K.K. Samba” for me.

After the show, Whitney pinged me and gave me a free gift: a propane stove. But sadly, no propane accessories were included. 😉
