I played the game a bit in mid-November, and I found a goodbye letter from Maddie in the mail.
My buddy Hank had a quiz for me: He asked me if he worked out that day. He’s a jock, so I was pretty sure the answer was yes…and I was right. As my prize, he gave me a pitfall. It’s always good to have a pitfall or two on hand, and I was all out of stock. 😛
Since I was still wearing my patched shirt from a Halloween incident, I bought a fresh shirt at Nookington’s and changed into it. I later dropped off the patched shirt in the dump.
Over in acre B-1, I found Forest’s newest resident: Cheri the peppy bear cub.
She’s cute, and I was glad to have her around. But unfortunately, when I played again today (November 29th), she had already moved out. The good news is that I like her replacement too. It’s Cookie!
As you can see, the grass is now a dark gray. I believe this is the last grass color change until the snow arrives on December 10th.
Static tried to sell me a peach for 840 bells. That’s a foreign fruit, so that’s not a bad deal…if you don’t already have many peach trees in town. But I didn’t need it, so I declined the offer. Of course, that angered Static, and he (once again) called me a cheap, no-fruit-buying bum. 😛
Baabara accused me of wearing the same clothes all the time.
But that was just the start of her sales pitch. (She should have her own infomercials!) She told me she would list five shirts at various prices, and I was forced to buy one of them. The first one was a U R here shirt for 720 bells.
I declined, but I later found out that I should have bought it. Because the other shirts were all at least twice that price. I ended up being stuck with a spade shirt for 1,470 bells. I was actually somewhat lucky, because that was the 2nd-lowest priced shirt she offered. I still hate forced purchases, though.
Happy holidays, everyone! See you next time!
