When I played on Tuesday, I received my monthly bank statement from the postal division at town hall. I earned 78,600 bells in interest this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drift was wondering why Pelly and Phyllis never hang out together, despite the fact that they both work at town hall…and they’re sisters.<\/p>\n\n\n

It’s a good question, but I guess they get on each other’s nerves. Not only because of their very different personalities, but there’s also that whole Pete situation too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was Filbert’s birthday, so I went over to his house for his birthday party. I gave him a mermaid statue for his gift, and he seemed to enjoy it.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

As you can see in that photo, Tank was also at the party. He said he was about to do his “Muscle Hustle” dance!<\/p>\n\n\n

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

I got out of there before Tank did anything my eyes would regret seeing. But happy birthday, Filbert! \ud83c\udf82\ud83c\udf88<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Robin was sick with a cold Tuesday and Wednesday, and I gave her some medicine both days. By today, she was feeling better. She gave me a fancy carpet to thank me for the medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I listened in on an interesting conversation between Tank and Truffles in the rain today. Tank had heard that Truffles wanted to be Forest’s official cheerleader, so he wanted to hear her cheer. It was…odd.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

Those two sentences made up her entire cheer. Tank was not impressed.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

Tank thought that he could do better, so he gave it a try.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

But he was just getting started. His cheer had four page of lines, and to be fair, he really brought it.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Tank:
This part wasn’t odd, it was even.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Not only was his cheer longer and better, but he had much more enthusiasm. Truffles was speechless. I guess Tank is now Forest’s official cheerleader. \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know how villagers’ catchphrases will be temporary replaced with things like “itchy” and “yowee” when they have fleas? Well, this is still true even when they’re asking for a new catchphrase. Caroline asked me for a phrase to replace “sheesh,” which of course wasn’t her catchphrase. I told her to say “stop it” instead.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

Caroline tried to confirm what I told her, but that too was replaced by the flea-related “yow” instead. \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n

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

If any players didn’t know fleas caused this, they would surely be confused by this whole conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

But I then caught her flea to cure her speech condition…and she told me to stop it. As she should.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

I don’t recall ever seeing that happen before, but it was pretty amusing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ll see you all next week. Never Stop Crossing!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
