Month: July 2020

Gullivarrr sent me a letter in the mail with a pirate’s hat attached. He signed the letter as “Dread Pirate Gullivarrr,” which is surely a reference to Dread Pirate Roberts in The Princess Bride. I took this picture wearing the pirate’s hat, standing on the pier, with these unusual clouds that I don’t think I’ve seen in the game before!

Louie asked me to catch a zebra turkeyfish for him, and I thought this might be my chance to get Louie’s photo. Unfortunately, it took me nearly 40 minutes to catch the fish! But once I finally had it, I rushed it over to Louie. In return, he gave me…a swimming cap!

I was not happy about it. So I used the aggravation reaction repeatedly to let him know. 😛

Keaton told me he had been meditating, and he came up with a new nickname for me: Hashtag.

I shook a tree near Tybalt while he was fishing. Some wasps came out, so I wanted to speak with Tybalt before I got stung.

I tried to run behind him so that he would get stung instead (haha, I wish), but that didn’t work. Tybalt did run away from the area though (as I was getting stung), and he started fishing a bit further down the river instead. 😛

There was a camper at the campsite today, and it was Tasha the snooty squirrel. She is a villager I’m not familiar with at all, and she certainly has a unique look to her. But I was not interested in taking her in, especially with a full town already.

Redd was in town, so I entered his ship/shop. Two of his paintings looked fake, and one was real but I already had it. The other was a statue that I haven’t seen before, the informative statue. That’s the one I bought.

I went diving and caught a scallop. I gave it to Pascal when he showed up. In return, he gave me a D.I.Y. recipe for a mermaid wall clock.

The Bug-Off is coming up tomorrow! See you then. 🙂

Yesterday, I caught my 2nd gigas giant clam…but it wasn’t easy. It took me six minutes to track it down and finally grab it!

When I went into Midge’s house, I was not just surprised by what I saw…but also legitimately confused.

I saw Tia there…but not Midge! It turns out Midge was just standing behind Tia, and completely out of view. 😛

I found my daily scallop, and Pascal popped up to share his wisdom about change.

He gave me some mermaid shoes in exchange for the scallop.

It seemed like everyone wanted me to change their catchphrases yesterday. Apple, Midge, and Louie all asked me, but I told them all to stick with what they’re using.

Flick was in town, so I sold him every bug I caught last night.

Today, Gullivarrr was washed up on shore, and even he lampooned the infamous C+ sea bass “pun.”

I went diving for his communicator, and I actually found it on my very first dive this time! I stayed in the water because I wanted to get Pascal’s item too, and I found a scallop on my 3rd dive! Talk about efficiency! In return for the scallop, Pascal gave me a D.I.Y recipe for a mermaid screen.

I returned the communicator to Gullivarrr, and he should be sending me a reward in the mail.

Since I don’t need bells as much as now, I haven’t been selling all my fruit in recent weeks. So that has allowed me to use my fruit for crafting. I’m going through and making all the fruit-related recipes I have. I’ll be keeping one of each fruit hat in storage, too. Ever since the ACCF days, I’ve always enjoyed having a variety of fun hats to wear during online play.

I ran into Wisp tonight, and he was not happy to see me.

But I collected his five spirits for him, and he gave me a green molded-panel wall. Wisp has become one of my least-favorite special characters to see in New Horizons. Tracking down all five spirits is a time-consuming process, and the reward generally isn’t worth the trouble.

Apple had another bad trade for me. She gave me a concierge uniform in exchange for an arapaima I caught earlier. I accepted the deal, because I’m still at the point where I’m sucking up to everyone so that I can get their villager photos. 😛 Well, not Rizzo. If he asked for an arapaima, I would say no in an instant. 😛

Just a heads-up for people on my friend roster: There won’t be a Friday Night Forest this week, and I won’t be opening up on Sunday either. But I’ll still have blog entries tomorrow and Saturday, and perhaps a new video Saturday as well. See you soon! 🙂

Late last night, I caught my first giant stag beetle. I think I saw one of these at Friday Night Forest, but I failed to catch it then. But this one now resides in the museum, where it will freak out Blathers until the end of time.

Today, Rizzo sent me a letter in the mail, along with a heart doorplate (like the one I gave Agent S). Yikes. I think Rizzo is getting the wrong idea about us. 😛

I ran into him coming down the steps near Rainbow Road, and he told me he wanted the two of us to go sailing! He said he would be the captain, and I could be his first mate. Uh, no thanks.

Label was in town, and she wanted to see me in some theatrical clothes. She gave me a morning coat, and I put it on and spoke to her again. Butt, you see, there was a problem. Because I previously had a zap suit on, putting the shirt on meant that I wasn’t wearing pants. Oops.

So I just put the zap suit back on, and she said it fit the theme exactly. She gave me some Labelle shorts, and she’ll also be sending me a tailor’s ticket in the mail.

I posted my latest video, Wi-Fi Moments #8 today! It features highlights from my last two online sessions. Check it out!

See you all next time!
