Finding Hidden Fossils

With Goose’s pic on display in my house now, my latest HRA score is up to 258,924 points. I’m not going to keep these villager pictures out forever, but I wanted to least point out my score in case it ends up being my all-time high point.

Jeff, your room gets 258,924 points! It looks like your house was built around your Space! Good! -Happy Room Academy

Bones has been sick this week, so I gave him some medicine Thursday, yesterday, and then again today. He gulped it down; I hope he feels better soon!

Bones: Hack... Hack... Oh, whoooa... My legs are as wobbly as grape jelly, nutty.
Poor Bones. He’s really in a jam.

At the Roost, I attended the Saturday night musical performance. K.K. Slider performed K.K. Folk for me, and it wasn’t as folksy as I expected. It’s actually not a bad song. 😛

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

On my initial walk around town, I didn’t find any of today’s fossils! So I went around again, paying closer attention to the edges of the grass, where it meets the dirt. That’s where they like to hide. 😛 And to my surprise, I actually found all three of them this way.

Last week, I posted a video taking a look at the relationship dialogue in Animal Crossing games. Almost all of the clips I used are from Wild World, because the newer games don’t have dialogue like this any more. I hope you’ll check it out if you haven’t already seen it. Here it is:

See you all next week!

Goose’s Pic

On Wednesday, two of the three daily fossils were right next to each other, right near my house! That was quite satisfying to have a big chunk of my daily tasks done in the first few seconds after loading the game.

Two dig spots (both of which contained fossils) near my house in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

Yesterday, Mitzi told me that she recently saw Pete, and he looked like he had been in a fight. She said his cheeks were all pink.

Mitzi: It looked like Pete had been in a fight. His cheeks were all pink, mew!

Then she added that it was BOTH cheeks! Is she saying what I think she’s saying? 😆

Mitzi: Yes, it's true. BOTH cheeks...
Did someone kick his butt? 😛

Inside town hall, I put some money in the bank. My account balance reached seven million bells.

Phyllis: Your balance is 50 billion bells. Just kidding! It's actually 7,000,000.

Wolfgang has been sick with a cold, so I gave him some medicine on Wednesday and Thursday. By tonight, he was already over his cold! That’s very unusual for a villager to be over a cold after just two doses of medicine! But I’m glad to hear it. Wolfgang rewarded me with a green desk.

As I was talking to Mitzi, Goose pinged me. He surprised me by giving me his photo!

Goose: Here! It's my photo! Awesome, huh, nutty?

I took it home and put it on the floor next to my other recent pics. Goose’s favorite quote is “Who are you callin’ chicken, chicken?!” 🐔

Quote on Goose's pic: Who are you callin' chicken, chicken?!

Goose has been in town for nine months, so I think that’s a bit longer than average. Wild World villager photos seem to take longer then New Horizons, but they’re still much easier than New Leaf photos.

I visited Eloise, and she was talking about changing the color of the lighting in a room. That’s something you couldn’t do until New Leaf. 😛 But the most interesting part is that she said the color yellow can drive you crazy! Not only is she yellow, but her wallpaper and flooring have a lot of yellow too!

Eloise: Well, actually, yellow drives you completely crazy, nutty!

Watch out for that crazy yellow light, and I’ll see you all next week! 🙂

Anchovy’s Birthday

On Wednesday, Anchovy was talking about doing stretching exercises before he gets into the bath. But then he started talking about bugs, and how crunchy they are? I was thinking, “what do you do…eat them?” And then I remembered he’s a bird, so yes, he probably does eat them. 😛 I still don’t understand how it relates to bathtub exercises, though.

Anchovy: But what about bugs? Their bodies are so, uh, crunchy, chuurp.

Speaking of Anchovy, I got to see the inside of his house yesterday (now that he has unpacked). He’s clearly a big pinball fan, with four pinball machines in his house!

On GameCube, Anchovy was obsessed with something different: Slot machines. He had six of them!

I received a letter from Mom in the mail, and she told me about a bird she saw feeding her baby. She said it reminded her of my childhood, only with less regurgitation. Wait, less regurgitation? Excuse me?!

Dear Jeff, I saw a bird feeding her baby today. It reminded me of your childhood, only with less regurgitation. -Mama Bird

Today (March 4th) is Anchovy’s birthday, and I attended his party. As soon as I walked in, he wished himself a happy birthday. 😛

Anchovy: Happy birthday to ME! Chuurp!

As you can see in that photo, Goose was also at the party. I gave Anchovy a violin as a birthday present, and he said would’ve been happy with anything. In return, he gave me a grapefruit table.

Today is also Flea Market day, so all of my villagers are trying to sell their junk. 😛 At Butch’s house, I bought a couple items just to be nice. But when he wanted 4,000 bells for a pachy skull, I declined. But I found it funny that the “no” option said “Go suck an egg!”

Butch: Now don't yank my chain. I'll sell it for 4,000 bells! No less! How 'bout it? >Go suck an egg!

Outside, Eloise was giving me some Flea Market advice. She said if I find something I like, I should pounce on it. She said good furniture moves fast…just like love.

Eloise: Good furniture moves fast. In a way, it's just like love, nutty.

Down at the Roost, I asked K.K. Slider for a random song. So he performed K.K. Gumbo for me.

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

And today, I posted my latest Wild World video, episode 53. It includes highlights of the past month (February 3rd through March 3rd).
