Sad Wolf

After making my rounds on Wednesday night, I stood by the gate and left the game on in case I heard a shooting star. But I was shocked when I heard something else instead: a UFO! I always thought the UFO would come in the first ten minutes of your session, if it was coming at all. But that was not the case this night.

I equipped my slingshot as quickly as I could, but I was out of position when I fired off my one and only shot, and the UFO escaped Forest unharmed.

Yesterday, Eloise and Wolfgang had an argument that left Wolfgang feeling depressed. He said sadness is the only thing he has plenty of.

Wolfgang: Sadness... It's the only thing I've got plenty of...

Eloise, on the other hand, was unaffected by the squabble. She even said she was happy to see me, because now she had someone to play with. 😛

Eloise: I'm happy you're still up, thought, 'cause that means I have someone to play with!

But by tonight, Eloise wasn’t feeling well at all. She was sick with a cold, and I gave her some medicine. She started to feel better almost instantly.

Eloise: Hm... I'm feeling a little better, tooooot.

Goose challenged me to see who could catch a horse mackerel first, and for once, I agreed to the competition. However, it surprisingly took me seven and a half minutes to track one down! Fortunately, that was still quicker than Goose.

Goose: HOLD UP!

He rewarded me with a lime chair, which is a cool item. It’s too bad it didn’t make it to New Horizons.

I realized that I’ve been wearing my nebula shirt for a very long time (since January!), so I headed over to Able Sisters to shop for new clothes. I wasn’t overly impressed with today’s selection, but I ultimately decided to buy a No. 2 shirt.

Mabel: Wow! You are looking really, really good!

See you all next week!

Stargazing Cat

On Wednesday, I was surprised to find a goodbye letter from Deena in the mail. Even though she was never one of my favorites, she had grown on me a bit during her stay. And I’m sad to see her go.

Dear Jeff, I'm moving out! Gonna see the world! Everyone in Forest was fun, but you were always the best! Good-bye! -Deena

Yesterday, Peanut warned me I was about to receive the Spike of Sandy Doom!

Peanut: Sunshine! Heads up! Prepare to received the Spike of Sandy Doom!

As confusing as that sounds, she was talking about a volleyball move. Of course, we weren’t actually playing volleyball, and neither of us had a ball, so I still think she’s crazy for saying that. 😉

Bob told me that he’d like for Forest to be so crowded that it’s like a fair all the time. I don’t think it’s just crowds that make a fair a fair, but okay. 😛

Bob: Ideally, I'd like Forest to be so crowded that it's like a fair all the time!

Last night, I wished on a shooting star. Today, Wishy sent me a moon in the mail. I can only imagine the shipping costs on that!

Gracie was in town today, so I took her fashion quiz. As usual, I answered her questions the way I imagined she would respond. And it worked out well; I earned another fashionista badge. I paid her 5,000 bells for a new outfit, and look what she did to me!

Gracie: Snip snip snip..

She put me in a Dutch shirt (which looks like a skirt) and a paperboy cap. Yikes. I quickly changed back into my nebula shirt and sporty shades (even though it’s nighttime).

Deena’s replacement moved in today, and it’s Mitzi the cat! I like Mitzi! 🙂

Mitzi: One night, you and I should go stargazing and see if we can spot Libra!
Sounds like a great idea!

My town now has two cats and two dogs. (The other animals are a chicken, a squirrel, a wolf, and an elephant.)

Goose has been sick lately, so I gave him some medicine Wednesday, yesterday, and then again today. Hopefully he’ll be over his cold by the next time I play.

Goose: I feel like four pounds of trash in a two-pound bag...

Gold is Lame?

On Thursday, Butch asked me if I wanted a golden belt. I said yes, and Butch said he prefers silver. He even said gold is lame…and he didn’t give me anything at all.

Butch: Gold is lame, don't you know? And I'm not talking about the fabric!

As I was trying to figure out what just happened with Butch, I heard a UFO! I got my slingshot out, chased it, and eventually shot it down.

Gulliver: That, my friend, is the secret to living a long life in space. Don't get eaten.

Gulliver asked me to recover his five UFO parts. Once I did, he rewarded me with a plate armor. Unfortunately, that’s an item I already own.

I’ve continued to give Eloise medicine, and she was finally over her cold by yesterday. She thanked me for the meds by giving me a lawn chair.

Bones asked me for a new catchphrase recently, and I told him to say “just bones.” It fit the situation when he asked me for a new fossil.

Bones: I really like fossils, just bones.

Today, Mom sent me a letter about the arrival of fall. It’s about a month too late, but oh well. 😛 She sent me an acorn too, but I didn’t have room in storage to keep it.

Dear Jeff, Summer is over and it's getting chilly. I slipped on some wet leaves today. It was unfortunate. Guess fall's here! -Mom

Since I don’t often play Wild World on Saturdays, I decided to check out K.K. Slider’s show tonight. He performed Café K.K. for me, and it’s not a bad song.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: Cafe K.K.!

Have a good night, and I’ll see you all next time!
