The Return of Katie

It was raining again today in Forest. And unfortunately, I’m starting to notice some grass wear around town. It’s not bad (yet), but there are spots where it’s quite noticeable.

Some grass has worn away.Benedict was out in the rain, talking about eating creamed corn. I guess that makes sense.

Benedict: Rainy days always make me wanna chow down on creamed corn.Katt was also outside. When I spoke to her, she gave me a free rock guitar, no questions asked.

Katt: Hey... So this is sudden, but can you take my rock guitar off my hands?And then I saw someone I hoped to never see again: Katie.

Katie: Um, hey, mister! Are you from Forest?The whole “lost kitten” routine from City Folk was something I really hated. It was novel the first time, but when Katie kept appearing week after week, I began to detest her. I didn’t want to have to do that routine again in New Leaf. And thankfully, she said that this time, she’s not lost! She said she’s on an adventure, traveling to different towns on her own. What a relief!

Katie: Did you think I was some lost little kid? No way! Not me!But that feeling of relief didn’t last long, because she still asked me to take her to another town!

Katie: Oh, right. Hey, Mister Mayor! How about you take me to some other town?I wasn’t planning on using Wi-Fi today, so I brushed her off. It’s good that she doesn’t need to go to a specific town in New Leaf (like she did in City Folk), but her presence still annoys me.

I then met up with Rory, and he told me he prefers dampness from sweat over dampness from rain. I’m afraid I can’t agree with that statement.

Rory: Dampness from sweat is the way to go. Dampness from rain...not so much, capital.After finding my fossils and money rock, I headed up to Main Street. I gave Shrunk a cherry and he taught me the showmanship emotion.

Shrunk: His name is The Shrunk!And on the other side of the shopping district, I saw some new construction around the Able Sisters! Oooh, I think this means I’m getting Shampoodle soon!

Blue tarp covers a construction area about Able Sisters. The future home of Shampoodle!I quit playing at that point, but I returned later on. I found Gulliver on the beach, and he’s going to send me an item from Germany tomorrow. I’ll be back with more then.
