Mitzi the cat has wandered away from Forest; I got her goodbye letter in the mail today.
I had been asked by Savannah on Youtube (another Animal Crossing player–not the zebra) to send her a green bed. So I went up to Nookington’s to do that today. Nook generated the password for her, and I sent it to her in a Youtube message. It’s interesting when you think that City Folk and Wild World will soon be losing their ability to trade items with players over the internet, yet trading in the GameCube game can continue indefinitely. Animal Crossing was ahead of its time.
I found Gulliver down on the beach, and he told me another tall tale of how he ended up in the ocean. He then gave me a shogi piece as a reward for “saving” him.
I talked to Sydney today, and apparently that’s the first time I’ve spoken with her in two months. She was looking very mopey and depressed.
She cheered up briefly when she went into her sales pitch mode, though. She tried to talk me into buying some wood paneling for 3,000 bells. However, her frown quickly returned when I declined the offer.
I circled around town and I soon bumped into my new neighbor, Carrie the kangaroo (and her child). They seem nice, but I’m afraid they won’t stick around long. I bet they’ll be hopping away in a matter of weeks.
After stopping at the post office and pulling the last few weeds I saw, I returned home and ended my game.
