On Wednesday, Marina gave me a free bear shirt. But I regifted it just two minutes later, when Pippy asked for some new clothes. Pippy loved it, and she rewarded me with a blue ribbon.<\/p>\n\n\n

I wondered if it was attached to a medal, like a first-place prize being awarded to me. But it was literally just a blue ribbon (an accessory), to wear in my hair. Not what I expected (or wanted). \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over by town hall, I listened in on a conversation between Curt and Marina. Marina said that she’s not good at remembering names, so she associates everyone’s names with a color. But one of the examples she gave was more than a bit odd…<\/p>\n\n\n

Purple Marina? Why would she need a word association trick to remember her own name<\/strong>?! Wow. But anyway, she eventually decided that Curt was a “burnt umber” after he first mentioned the color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yesterday, Curt told me that when the weather is this cold, he can’t be bothered to do anything. He even has a hard time keeping his eyes open…with legs.<\/p>\n\n\n

The fishing tournament is coming up this weekend, and Filbert was imagining how the fish were handling it. He imagined fish families being torn apart.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

He even made himself cry thinking about the hypothetical fish family.<\/p>\n\n\n

Actually, it’s without legs. They’re fish.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Robin has been sick with a cold this week, so I gave her some medicine Wednesday and Thursday. By today, she was over her cold, and she thanked me by giving me some cloud flooring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whitney insulted me, saying I lack a personal style. She said to make a “catch” like her pay attention to me, I need to be edgier.<\/p>\n\n\n

She recommended I start up a rap band. That would certainly backfire spectacularly. \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n

As much as I like Whitney as a character, she doesn’t seem super likable in Wild World. Maybe her snootiness just took a while to catch up with me. So I think Filbert, not Whitney, is currently my favorite villager in town. (I previously ranked Whitney over Filbert, but I reserve the right to change my mind once in a while.) \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I posted a new video today, even though it’s not exclusively a Wild World video. It takes a look at the winter vibes throughout the series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
