Month: June 2020

Gulliver made a visit to Forest Island today; I found him washed up on the shore. But it seems like he rarely visits any more! I wish he’d show up more often.

I collected his five communicator pieces for him, and he promised to send me a reward in the mail.

As I tried to enter Agent S’s house, I encountered a glitch: I was unable to go inside. I could not interact with the door at all. But I soon learned it wasn’t limited to Agent S’s house, it applied to the houses of Shari and Keaton too…any villager that was home.

As for villagers that weren’t home, everything worked normally: I got the “I’m not home” message if I tried to enter. I tried going into town hall and coming back out to see if that would solve the problem, but it didn’t. So I used “save and end” to go back to the title screen, and then started up again. That didn’t work either, and that’s when I started getting worried.

So I tried exiting out of the game completely…and fortunately, that worked. I was quite relieved!

I shot down a balloon present, and there was a meme shirt inside. I had to see what it looked like, so I tried it on…and I was not disappointed. It shows a cat shooting lasers out of its eyes.

Even my villagers seemed to enjoy it! Tia said it was breezy and fun. 😛

I caught a flea that was on Apple, and she…denied that she had fleas. She didn’t even thank me!

In other news, Hornsby taught me the shyness reaction. I now have 36 of the 44 reactions, so there’s just a few more to go!

I received my photo plate from Reese and Cyrus in the mail today. The funny part is that the instant I put the gift into my pockets, the hourly chimes went off…which sound a bit like wedding bells. 😛 But I wasn’t the only one who got the commemorative plate, because I spotted one in Hornsby’s house as well!

Rizzo the rat taught me the “inspiration” reaction today…that’s the light bulb that goes off over your head. Since that was somewhat nice of him, I decided not to put him into jail just yet. 😉

For some reason, I always think Midge is just so cute when she’s reading. She was reading on the bench right outside her house today. 🥺

In my flower garden, I noticed that my first orange pansy has bloomed.

Over by the jumping pillars, I found a lost item on the ground. I used the “investigate” option, but all it told me was that it was a bag with a simple design, made by hand. How in the world am I supposed to be able to tell who it belongs to just from that?

I asked Hornsby about it, and he suggested that it may be Tia’s. And sure enough, it was. Tia gave me an instant-muscles suit as my reward for returning the bag.

I then flew out to Harv’s island, where Harvey gave me a DIY recipe for wedding fencing. Reese actually wanted something different today: a chic set. Many of the previous wedding items can be customized with a “chic” setting, so I just spammed some of those items to please Reese.

Several new wallpapers, floorings, and rugs are now available as well. I was particularly interested in the brown wedding flooring, but the reason might surprise you. It’s orange, with brown stripes, and a white stripe down the center…it looks like a top-down version of the Cleveland Browns helmet!

So if I ever make a football or Browns themed room, I’ll probably use it for that! It sounds weird to use a wedding item for a sports room, but it fits!

I’ll have to return at least several more days to buy up all of the wedding items. I really hate the way they dragged out this event, making us repeatedly compete an annoying task day after day just to complete the furniture set. As for the room I designed, well, “designed” is probably not the best verb to use. 😛

Flick was in town, so I sold him several wasps and other bugs I caught tonight.

See you next time!

Rizzo was crafting in his house today, and I was surprised to learn he was crafting jail bars!

He taught me the DIY recipe, but he may end up regretting it. Because most likely, I’ll be using those jail bars on him.

It was raining today, and my first blue pansy bloomed. I also have a couple more that just sprouted up and will bloom tomorrow.

The Nook Stop had two new seasonal items today, a summer solstice crown and a winter-solstice sweater. I ordered one of each for catalog purposes.

Wisp was in town tonight, so I collected his spirits for him. I asked him for a “new” reward, and he gave me a garden faucet.

The rain had me feeling a bit gloomy, but it helped a bit when I caught a coelacanth. 😛

I took a plane out to Harv’s island, where Reese wanted to have a reception-style party. Two new items were available for me to use, the wedding welcome board and a wedding arch. Unlike in Reese’s previous requests, I was able to bring in island residents this time.

Once I was done, I was able to start the party. It reminded me of a completion ceremony, but it was Reese instead of Tom Nook giving the speech. 😛

Everybody even fired off party poppers!

When she was done with her speech, you could still watch everyone sitting at the tables. And from time to time, villagers would randomly fire off a party popper during the meal. 😛

After the party, Reese gave me a wedding arch to keep. She’s also going to send me a commemorative Reese & Cyrus photo plate. Even though you can still come back to help more, it sounds like everything has been unlocked now. I’ll just need to figure out which items I still need and buy them with heart crystals.

Here is my latest video episode, including Apple the Moon Hamster.

Have a good night, and I’ll see you all next time!
