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.

Shooting a UFO with my slingshot on a cloudy night in Animal Crossing: City Folk.It was my first UFO since March 13th (over a month ago). It’s my 7th UFO of 2012 and my 17th overall. 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.

A Gift from the Lost Girl

I got two letters in the mail today. One was a letter from Drift, in Tropical. He told me I should visit him again sometime. The funny thing is, he moved out of Tropical today, so I couldn’t visit him if I wanted to. The other letter was from Katie, thanking me for reuniting her with her mom in Tropical yesterday.

To sweet Jeff, Thanks for looking for my mommy with me. I got you a present to thank you. I bought it with my allowance! -From the Lost GirlI don’t know why she signs the letter as “the Lost Girl.” Doesn’t she know her name is Katie? And she says she got me a present with her allowance. Well this is the present she sent me. It’s a portrait.

A portrait that Katie drew for me.Now I don’t know where Katie does her shopping, but if she paid money for that, she got ripped off.

Anyway, I then made my way around town. It was raining today, so I didn’t need to water my flowers. I talked to Bob, and he asked for a new greeting.

Bob: I have bad gas! A huh huh huh! Do I seem any cooler to you now, master?I also saw Pete on the peninsula by the windmill. Exactly who was he delivering mail to?

Pete stands on a peninsula near my windmill in Animal Crossing: City Folk (ACCF) for Nintendo Wii.I was almost done playing when Del asked me to make a delivery. He had me take a biwa lute to Alice.

Alice: Awesome! It's a biwa lute!I returned to Del and he thanked me by giving me a kitschy wall.

Del: As a little thank-you, take a kitschy wall. Enjoy, Pac-Man!

Reuniting Katie and Kaitlin

While watering my flowers today, I saw Katie, the lost kitten. Her mom Kaitlin was in Yann’s town Tropical, so I later arranged a meeting with Yann to reunite the two cats.

Katie: W-want M-Mommy...I had her follow me to the gate and I went to Tropical.

Kaitlin: Oh! Where have you been?!Kaitlin: Katie! You naughty kitten! Say thank you to the nice person!I also dropped off a blue wall that I had ordered for Yann. She put it up in her house and I took a look. I like her blue room.

A blue themed room in Yann's house.Yann also has Victoria in her town, and I talked to her.

Victoria: Hey, so you, like, came here from Forest, right, in my nose?I also met her mousy neighbor Bettina.

Bettina: You must be new here... It's nice to meet you, hypnosis!Then, I raided Bettina’s fridge.

Jeff: Nothing but cheese!And I said hi to my old friend Rolf.

Rolf: Oh... You must be the out-of-towner folks have been talking about. I thought you'd be taller.And I also said goodbye to Drift, who is moving out of Tropical. I wouldn’t mind having him in Forest…

Drift: Come this time next week, I'll be hanging my cleats up in another town, one time!
