Month: August 2011

Today, Pierce wanted to give me a new nickname…dumbbell! No way! I guess I know what he thinks of me now. How rude!

Also, I got a letter from Rosie. She was saying goodbye, since she moved out of Forest this morning.

I opened my gate at 7:03 for the fireworks festival. TZ and Mike quickly came in. They had some fun with fireworks while I watered my flowers. Once I got done, I saw that they had trapped Tortimer. His jail cell was a little too close to my lucky blue roses, so I moved his cell up a little.

We caught bugs and fish for a while, which is usual for summertime. TZ and Mike both had some fun planting pitfall seeds for me.

Among other valuable bugs and fish, I caught two sharks tonight. I’m not sure what Mike is doing in this picture.

TZ left at 8:00 and I ended up closing my gate at 8:20. I won’t be opening my gate next Sunday, so this was everybody’s last chance to see fireworks in Forest. At least until next year.

I opened my gate shortly after 10:00 tonight, and TZ came in. I watered my flowers and checked my mail. There was a letter from Mint, thanking me for getting her medicine the other day. She sent me a wobbelina.

For the most part, TZ and I were just catching fish and bugs. It’s still August of course, so there were a lot of good ones out tonight.

Surprisingly, no one else came in, and TZ left around 11:25. I was feeling tired so I laid down while I still had my gate open. I fell asleep, but I woke up about 11:45 to the *DING* that announces an arrival. “Someone’s here, saving…”  but it never finished, because it disconnected.

I started the game back up and opened up my gate. Mike came in. Turned out he accidentally shut his Wii off while he was plugging in his keyboard. After we caught bugs and fish for a while, he wanted to go into Scott’s beach house (the obstacle course house). We did the chair glitch. It works really well in there.

At almost 12:30, Jon came in. He’s the Jonathan I had on my roster before, but he recently restarted. When Mike kept “accidentally” picking up (or eating) tiles (patterns), I noticed I could place patterns underwater. At least they appeared to be underwater when the tide was rolling in. Then I ended up putting Mike in water prison to punish him. 😛

They both wanted to hear the 1 a.m. music, so I stayed on until 1:00 a.m.  But just a few minutes after, we got disconnected. So I called it a night.

I caught lots of valuable bugs and fish tonight: 3 scarab beetles, a blue marlin, a shark, several oak silk moths, a rainbow stag, a golden stag, and much more. I ended up making about 200,000 bells tonight. Unfortunately, some of that may have been lost in the last disconnect, so I’m not sure how much of it actually saved.
