When I visited Rolf today, he said that even though we’re still just casual acquaintances, he has a feeling that we have chemistry…and that scares him. 😛

Margie reminded me that the Bright Nights festival is coming up soon (next week, apparently). Pretty cool! That’s still one of Wild World’s best exclusive events.

Mathilda was talking about the town hall building and how impressive it is. She even said she heard that someone made a killing on turnips, and built town hall with the profits!

So I learned something new today! I’m guessing it was Tortimer that hit the turnip jackpot? Maybe it was so long ago that Tortimer and Joan were both young! Now that’s hard to imagine. 😛

Bunnie was all packed up and ready to move out of town already, which surprised me. It’s barely been a month since she arrived, which is way too soon to let her go. So I asked her to reconsider.

I see she’s already using Rolf’s catchphrase. 😛 It doesn’t seem to fit her. 😀

It’s February now, and the snow will be gone in just three weeks. So I made sure to build a snowman today, and he turned out good. I would like to complete my snowman set before the winter is over. But then again, snowmen do send duplicates in this game, so my chances may not be great.

I went on a fruit-gathering run, selling practically all the foreign fruit I could find. Between that, today’s fossils, and the money rock, I made a total of 75,000 bells. I now only need 67,000 bells to make my final Boondox donation! So I may be able to do that by next week, as long I don’t play so late at night that the store is already closed. 😛

I received a letter from Margie in the mail today, and at first, I was afraid she moved out. Fortunately, that wasn’t the case. She was just inviting me to her birthday party, which was actually today!

But when I showed up at her house, she looked shocked! She didn’t even remember sending me the invitation! Awkward…

I gave her a Nintendo bench that I bought at Nookington’s last week, and she seemed to enjoy it. Although she gave me an iron frame in return, which made it seem like a trade instead of a birthday gift. She said we’re friends forever, although it didn’t exactly feel genuine at the moment. 😛

Mathilda was also at the party, and she said she loves celebrating other people’s birthdays. That’s because she gets to enjoy eating cake, without being the one that’s getting older. 😛

Back outside, I was near the museum when I ran into Antonio. He said I was so far away from my house that he wondered if I was sleeping outside tonight.

Aside from the fact that Wild World towns aren’t that big to begin with, I wasn’t even that far! Maybe a 20-second walk from home? I think Antonio needs to keep his nose out of my business. 👃 😛

I visited Goldie, and she surprised me by telling me that Big Top and Benedict are getting along too well.

She said it was making her jealous! Aww, Goldie, don’t feel bad. Wanna take a walk? Grab your leash and let’s go.

Wendell the walrus was in town, and he was starving (as usual). I gave him a bitterling that I caught in the river and he wolfed it down. In return, he gave me a “road 1 pattern.” It’s one of the four corners used with the road patterns.

When I saw that Rolf had his belongings packed up in boxes tonight, I (momentarily) panicked. But then I realized that this is Wild World, not one of the other Animal Crossing games, and I can simply ask him to stay. 😛 It took a few tries, but that’s okay. I don’t want Rolf going anywhere.

I listened in on a conversation between Big Top and Benedict, and they were having a big lovefest because they like the same foods. In particular, they mentioned coconut custard and turnip casserole. I think I’ll just quietly walk away before things get any more awkward. 😛

Speaking of bad taste, Margie was out looking for a cockroach tonight. I tried to keep an eye out, but I didn’t spot one…at least not after she mentioned it. I did see one a bit earlier in the evening, but I don’t typically collect cockroaches just for fun. 😛

Antonio said that he’s practicing buttering people up for Yay Day, which is coming up soon. But he’s not very good at giving compliments. For example, nobody likes hearing about their nice ear hair. 😛

I made myself a snowman, but it wasn’t easy because the snowballs were halfway across town. Once the snowdude came to life, he did a Santa Claus impression!

But then the jolly fellow’s attitude quickly froze over: He said I should have paid more attention to his overall shape and balance. Nah, I should have picked up some weeds and given the ungrateful lump of ice some “nice” ear hair. Go suck a lump of coal, snowboy. 😛

Have a good day, everyone! May your snowpeople be perfect and pleasant!
