Roscoe’s Modern Lamps

Monday was Explorer’s Day, and Tortimer was standing outside of town hall for the occasion. He handed me a sailboat model, which is actually one of the better small-holiday items, in my opinion.

Tortimer: It's a sailboat model. Because everyone knows that explorers are really into the ocean and stuff.

Saharah was also in town, collecting old carpets. Harry and Nana were the only villagers that had some old flooring to give me.

Nana: Yeah, I have a carpet that I'm not using anymore. Here you go! It's yours!

But fortunately, I also had one in storage. So I took the three old carpets back to Saharah, and she gave me a chessboard rug for them.

Saharah: Here...a chessboard rug. Very exotic... Treasure it. It is a very rare thing.

I like the chessboard rug, but I already have one in storage.

Antonio asked me for some new clothes, so I tried giving him the caveman tunic I already had in my pockets. But he said it wasn’t subtle enough for him (even though he never said it had to be subtle in the first place).

Antonio: OK, so my eyes are burning from sweat, but I can tell you got it wrong. Try again!
Rude. You’re welcome.

Today, I was checking for a possible UFO (no luck), when I happened to see Tom and Gabi standing side-by-side, in matching paw shirts. They were both just staring straight ahead. Were they on a date? It was weird.

Roscoe has the modern furniture set in his house, but I noticed he has two modern lamps almost next to each other. There’s just one space in between them, and he was walking between them when I snapped this photo.

Ugly Grass, Ugly Shirt

Now that October is here, the pukey, yellowish grass is here as well. Other than the arrival (and departure) of snow, this has got to be the most glaring grass color change of the year. Yuck.

The ugly grass of October.
“Look away, I’m hideous.”

While in Shampoodle, I stood behind Harriet while I opened the menu and it looked like I was her. Or she was me. 😛

Harriet appears to the be the player.

Spork was telling me about a dream he had today, and he said dreaming of wearing an ugly shirt was the best dream ever!

Spork: Oh, and I was also wearing an ugly shirt, and it looked SO good on me! It was the best dream ever!

He wanted me to find an ugly shirt for him, but I wasn’t interested in helping him. Requests for a specific item are too much trouble to fool with, since I’d have to order it and wait for it to arrive another day.

Nana already wanted to move out of town, but I told her to stay. It took two tries, but she agreed to stick around.

Nana: What's wrong with me?! The answer is so obvious! I'm going to stay, po po!
