Month: March 2022

On Thursday night, Goldie insulted me. She said that the best thing about coming to live in Forest was that she got to meet Curt! CURT!

I found Pudge all packed up to move out of town. Pudge is a nice guy, but honestly, he didn’t grow on me very much in his short stay in Forest.

He was still in town yesterday, but he was gone by today. I received his goodbye letter in the mail. Take care, Pudge!

Curt approached me, wanting to play a wilderness-survival game. He really meant hide-and-seek, and I agreed to play. Curt was just so sure that he was going to win.

He gave me 15 minutes to find him, Goldie, and Stitches. With that much time, I wasn’t in a rush and I still went on with my normal duties. After about five minutes, I found Goldie hiding behind my house. A minute after that, I found Curt hiding behind a tree near the fountain. And with just three and a half minutes remaining, I found Stitches behind Scott’s house.

Curt rewarded me with a dirt-clod wall for winning the game. Such a fancy prize. 😛

After that, I headed over to the Roost for the Saturday night concert. K.K. Slider performed Neapolitan for me.

While I was looking at my letters, I was surprised to see a blue (unsent) letter. My curiosity turned to sadness when I realized it was a letter I wrote to Lucky…who has since moved out. I was sending him a mummy shirt.

I remembered being a bit disappointed that he never put the shirt on or wrote me back…and now I know why. Oops. As you can tell, I don’t always pay a lot of attention to my mail slots. I usually check the new mail and just ignore the others. Sorry, Lucky!

I started off my day with a trip to Shampoodle. I dyed my hair green, and put on my club shirt and mohawk wig, to make my annual transformation into Mohawk McClover.

Back in town, Maelle told me someone canceled on her, and she asked if I would “go with her.” She was being purposely vague.

I knew that meant she wanted to play hide-and-seek, so I agreed. But it is kinda funny how they try to trick you into playing. 😛 Anyway, she gave me a full 15 minutes to find her, Gwen, and Queenie. They’re all birds! Maybe she should’ve called it Hide-and-Beak.

It took me about two minutes to find Gwen hiding behind a tree. Another two minutes after that, I found Maelle hiding behind an empty house. There were still 11 minutes on the timer, but she felt the need to insult me for taking so long. 🙄

One minute after that (with ten minutes still on the timer), I found Queenie hiding behind Maelle’s house. I easily won the game, and Maelle gave me a weight bench as my prize.

When I visited Gaston, he basically said that he didn’t believe I really caught every type of fish. He said I must have bribed a river spirit with some mud.

Stitches asked me to make a delivery to Gaston, and I agreed to help out. The item was a birdhouse, and Stitches ultimately rewarded me with an automatic washer. He also said he was like a jelly donut, but filled with gratitude instead of jelly. Well, he’s stuffed with something alright, but I don’t think it’s gratitude. 😀

Goldie told me she was thinking about moving out of town tonight, and I immediately asked her to stay. Fortunately, she changed her mind on my first attempt.

Tom was enjoying some rich coffee at the Roost, and he said he could taste it all the way down to his toes. Oh, and he called me “brother.” 😛

K.K. Slider then performed The K. Funk; that’s the same song he played two weeks ago!

Gaston told me that he locked himself out of his house and lost the key. I didn’t want to bother fishing out his key, because that can be a tedious task. But when I happened to see a small fish shadow in the river, I decided to see if that was the key. Surprisingly enough, it was!

If it always only took one attempt (or even 3-4 attempts, like Gullivarrr’s phone in New Horizons), I wouldn’t mind this favor so much. Too bad it’s not always that easy. I took the key back to Gaston, and he thanked me by giving me 600 bells.
