Merry-Go-Round

Today, Wendell was in town. I wasn’t interested in any of his patterns, so I didn’t feed him anything.

So I went around watering my flowers; I have not seen rain in quite a while. I found a new black rose today, and a few black roses turned gold. (I’ve been letting some of them wilt lately so that I could convert them into gold). I shot down a balloon present and got a brick block. And of course I talked to some animals along the way.

Ruby: Astro projector! Good evening! ...I guess?I went to the city to check Crazy Redd’s new items, and he had an item I needed for my catalog checklist. In fact, I don’t even recall seeing this item before: A merry-go-round.

A merry-go-round item in Animal Crossing: City Folk.You can turn it on and it spins. It reminds me of the old Yo-Yo ride at Geauga Lake (a former amusement park). I’ll keep it in my basement for now. I bet I’ll get some comments from visitors asking what it is. 😛

Drawing a Blanca

Rosie approached me today and told me she was thinking about leaving Forest. I didn’t object, since she’s not one of my favorites.

While out watering my flowers, I saw a white cat. At first it gave me Merry flashbacks, but it was actually Blanca–the cat without a face. She asked me to draw her a happy face…so I did. Kind of. 😉

A cross-eyed, ugly happy face for Blanca.Blanca: Hee hee! My face has a real happy vibe going on... I think.Once I was done, I stopped by The Roost and enjoyed a nice cup of coffee.

Brewster hands me my coffee at the Roost.

Sunday Night Fireworks

I opened my gate for the fireworks festival around 7:02 tonight. Nobody came in right away, so I started stockpiling Roman candles from Tortimer. I filled up every available spot on the first floor of my house with them, and I have a few upstairs as well. Then I checked my map and saw that I have a new villager: Butch.

Butch: So, uh, who are you? You live in this town, ROOOOOWF?I waited longer, and still nobody came through the gate, so I left the room for a while. I came back around 7:45 and I saw Patty was in my town. Jorge and TZ also came in soon after. I wished TZ a happy birthday.

Jeff, as he tries to burn TZ: Light your candles.We had some fun with sparklers and Roman candles for a while, and then we caught bugs and fish. We eventually went in my house and hung out for a while. Patty was the first to leave, and then TZ left a little later. Jorge stayed until I closed my gate. Even though the night started out looking like nobody would come, my town did fill up and we had a good time.

Jorge: Oh wait, you still have Bob.Rosie: Tee hee, ohmigosh! That's sooooo the cutest thing EVER, unlike you!
