Sweet Monkey of Mercy

On Thursday, I received Goldie’s goodbye letter in the mail. It’s sad to lose her again, but at least I had some bonus time with her after she left the first time.

Dear Jeff, Today's my last day. I'm leaving Forest. Good-bye, Jeff. I hope you won't forget me! Good-bye, -Goldie

I made around 150,000 bells bug-hunting Thursday night. But I was helped out a bit by Harry, who gave me 9,344 bells for a goliath beetle (over 50% higher than the 6k that Nook pays).

Today, Roscoe became the latest villager to comment on my racing helmet. Like Tom before him, he used the ridiculous expression “Sweet monkey of mercy!” 😆

Roscoe: Sweet monkey of mercy! You scared the daylights out of me! What is that on your head, I'm evil?

But unfortunately, that wasn’t the only time a monkey would cross my mind today. Just a few moments later, I walked into a new house and met Goldie’s replacement: Nana the monkey.

Nana: Eek! I-I'm sorry! It's such a horrible mess in here...

I don’t particularly like monkeys not named Champ, but I guess it could be worse. At least Nana isn’t as ugly as most monkeys in the game.

A couple of my villagers pointed out that the last fireworks festival of the year is tomorrow.

Poncho: This is the last one for this year! I gotta savor every BOOM like a tasty morsel on my plate, li'l bear!

I may try to squeeze in some fireworks (and bug-hunting) tomorrow night if I can. I do try to play during fireworks at least once a year in each Animal Crossing game.

Marcel was sick with a cold. I gave him some medicine, both on Thursday and again tonight.

At the Roost, I told K.K. I was feeling a little sad, and he played K.K. Condor to try to cheer me up. It is a good song.

K.K.: Here's a jam that'll shine the blues clean off your shoes... It's called K.K. Condor.

See you next time!
