Astrid Arrives

Chip was in town today, for the November fishing tourney. He informed me that Goldie was the big winner of the carp-only tournament earlier in the day. She caught a 35-incher!

Chip: Goldie from here in Forest! Solid fishing! But not so much for you. Nyuuk nyuk!

Gala’s replacement has moved into town, and it’s a 2-for-1 deal. Astrid the kangaroo moved in, along with her child too.

Astrid: What, can't you tell? I just moved here, and now I'm trying to get everything in its proper place!
I’m sure that kid is gonna be a star. ⭐

Portia told me that she always gets a massage on Saturdays, with the trendy treatment of the week. This time, she’ll be using essences of yogurt parfait and butter cake.

Portia: This week, my massage will use the essences of yogurt parfait and butter cake!

I didn’t find any rare mushrooms in town today, but I did find one elegant mushroom. It’s worth 10,000 bells, so that’s still a nice, valuable chunk of fungus. 😉

At the Roost, I asked K.K. Slider for a random song, and he performed K.K. Steppe for me. It’s not a bad song.

K.K. Slider sings and plays his guitar at the Roost in Animal Crossing: City Folk.

Bones said he was looking for a new pet, and he wanted a crucian carp. I caught one for him, and he rewarded me with a gold econo-chair.

Bones: Yippee! A crucian carp! Thanks a million, Chill J! Woof woof!

As I headed to the store to sell the other fish I caught (before the crucian carp), Tom pinged me. He wanted to buy my bitterling, and he gave me 1,003 bells for it. That seems like an odd unusual amount to pay for a fish, but I’ll take it.

Tom: Great! Thanks! Here you go, exactly 1,003 bells, no changed needed!

This past Monday (November 16th) was the 12th anniversary of the game’s release. I didn’t do anything special for the occasion, but I will be posting my annual slideshow of my best pictures of the year soon.

See you all next time!

  1. When I first had Astrid in Gamecube I actually wondered why she was not wearing anything and then I realized she was wearing a star shirt.
