On Wednesday, I got to see the inside of Mitzi’s house for the first time since she unpacked. She has an odd mixture of cabana and blue furniture.

Eloise was finally over her cold, and she thanked me for all the medicine by giving me a stone tile.

La-Di-Day was today, and my villagers were all talking about singing songs for me. But since I didn’t talk to any of them repeatedly, I didn’t actually hear any of them sing. 😛 However, I was okay with that. I already changed my tune on the last La-Di-Day two months ago, and I wanted to keep it a while longer anyway.

Apparently, Eloise passed off her cold to Bones, so I don’t get much of a break from delivering medicine. 😛 I gave a dose to Bones when he started to think he could taste clouds.

Wolfgang was packed up to move out of town, but I talked him out of it. I’m not quite ready to let him leave just yet.

Down at the Roost tonight, K.K. Slider performed Café K.K.; that’s the same song he played four weeks ago.

On Tuesday (November 1st), I bought a jackhammer at Nook’s Cranny, with the intention of giving it to Butch for his birthday. But when I headed over to his house, there was no party. Instead, he was trying to move out of town!

Of course I talked him out of moving, but he still didn’t have a birthday party. I even tried leaving his house and re-entering. Oof.

Bones asked me for a fossil, so I gave him some fossilized dino droppings that I dug up.

He was happy to have them, and he rewarded me with a slate flooring.

On Wednesday, I had a chat with Mitzi outside of town hall. She was talking about how nice the office is, and she credited it to Phyllis and Pelly’s hard work. She said Pete was just a slacker.

Yesterday, Wendell was in town, and I gave him an apple to eat. Somehow, that apple completely filled him up. I find that hard to believe, but okay. 😛

He gave me a block pattern in return, which is really just a brick path pattern.

Eloise has still been sick with a cold, so I gave her more medicine Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and then again today. This is dragging on way too long. She needs to get over her cold already.

Dr. Shrunk was in town today, and I asked him for a new emotion (exasperation) to let out a much-needed sigh.

However, I was having trouble getting the timing of the tapping right; Wild World has the worst, most tedious reaction-learning technique in the series.

But I eventually figured out the timing and learned exasperation. Since my collection was already full with four emotions, I had to lose one. I sacrificed “thought” to learn “exasperation.” I hope it was worth it.

*sigh* See you next time.

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.

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. 😛

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.

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.

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.

See you all next week!
