Last Wednesday, Mom sent me a letter telling me about a plant that can bring happiness. A coffee plant? Nope. She said it was a corn plant, but then she enclosed a dracaena instead. That did not <\/em>make me happy. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Dear<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I also received the massage chair that I ordered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the bulletin board, someone wrote a “Talking to Myself” post about being called too “right-brained” by Blathers. Normally, I tend to think these posts are written by Pelly or Phyllis, but this one seems to have been written by Celeste. Interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"-Talking
Hoo<\/em> wrote this? \ud83e\udd89<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Today (Sunday), I started up the game in the morning briefly to buy a red turnip seed from Joan. I’m trying to stay prepared for the trading sequence, until I earn all of the rewards. And with that in mind, I played again later to give Tortimer my massage chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tortimer:<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In return, he gave me another scallop to give to Pascal. Even though the Bug-Off was underway (which is why Tortimer was out of his nursing home<\/s> office in the first place), I did not participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Olivia asked me to deliver a letter to Cyrano, and I agreed to help out. But once I handed over Cyrano’s letter, he got an attitude with me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Cyrano:
Excuse me? I’m not the mailman. I’m doing you a favor, you jerk!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

When I returned to Olivia, she rewarded me with a fairy-tale wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kid Cat has still been sick lately, so I gave him some medicine on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. By today, he was finally over his cold. He gave me a white bishop for helping out with medicine all week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I returned home and checked my mail, I was astonished when I saw this letter. My jaw literally dropped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Good-bye,<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

BIG TOP MOVED OUT! WITHOUT WARNING! Big Top has been one of my favorites for a long time. And he’s been here for such a long time, too. My town will turn five years old next month, and he’s been here for 4.5 of those five years! Not only am I sad to see him go, but Forest is going to feel so different without him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I already lost Margie two months ago, and now Big Top. I believe that now makes Goldie the (current) villager who has lived here the longest, and she hasn’t even been here two years yet. That’s less than half as long as Big Top. Such is life in the Wild World\/City Folk era. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, I do still have Big Top in New Leaf. I’ll be back with another entry at some point this week, so I hope to see you then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
