Rooster Drama and a UFO

It was raining again today in Forest. I didn’t have to water my flowers, but I did talk to my animals. Egbert asked me for some nice, clean clothes.

Egbert: I wish I had some nice, clean clothes like yours, egg-layer!I was actually wearing a pattern, not a shirt. But he lives near the Able Sisters, so I went there and bought him a “U R here” shirt. He complained that it wasn’t subtle enough. He didn’t say it had to be subtle!

Egbert: Thanks for bringing this, but it doesn't really scream "subtle," it won't go with my image!I wasn’t about to buy him another shirt, so he can stand there in his own filth for all I care. 😛

Then I talked to Rowan, who said I wasn’t snackworthy. Considering he’s a tiger, that’s probably a good thing.

Rowan: I'm thinkin' maybe the flowers around here might be snackworthy... unlike you!I talked to Mint, and she seemingly remembers the day we all took over her house! Maybe these animals are smarter than we realize!

Mint: But still, a good hostess wants her guests to feel at home, as long as they remember it's MINE.Today, there was no Pete and no other visitors. That indicated it would be a UFO day. The UFO will only come in the first ten minutes of an hour. So I checked at the 7:00 hour, no luck. I tried again at 8:00, still no luck. I didn’t check at 9:00, but then finally at 10:07 (right before I was about to give up), it finally appeared. Thanks to my pre-marked spots, I was able to shoot it down despite the cloudy sky.

I’m still hoping to get a Metroid…will the 17th try be the charm? Anyway, I went on and recovered the spaceship part. I’ll give that to Gulliver tomorrow.

Recovering the spaceship part from Gulliver's UFO.Before ending my game, I talked to Egbert one last time. He asked me for a new greeting. He’s a rooster, so I thought I would make give him a rooster-appropriate greeting. Not so fast.

What's the greeting? "cock-a-doodle-doo" You can't enter that!Wow. No problem though, I just changed the first “o” to an “o” with an accent over it. Problem solved.
