Yesterday, Eloise pinged me and accused me of eating her shortbread! But I didn’t even eat much. 😛

However, she was just joking with me. She was actually demonstrating the “intense” reaction, which she then taught me.

I had been thinking I only needed two of the snooty reactions, but apparently, I was wrong about that. Because Eloise has already taught me two of them, and I still haven’t learned “love” yet.

Today, I visited Hornsby, and he was talking about how much he has in common with his pet carp. 😛

He even said it was like he found his long-lost brother!

At the plaza, there was a scorpion just to the left of K.K.’s performance area. I got my net out, lured it close, and then talked to K.K. After K.K. was done, I quickly sat down on the right side. The song started (K.K. Faire, which is one of my favorites), and the scorpion ran in circles behind Tia’s chair!

As the song started, the “lights” went out and I couldn’t tell if it the scorpion was still there or not. But after the song ended, I saw it was still there! Tia also noticed it, and she nervously watched it go around.

Apparently the chairs prevented it from reaching us, and prevented me from catching it with my net. But once I left the safe zone (with my net out), the scorpion quickly attacked. Even though I passed out, it was fun just to mess around and experience that. 😛

CONCERT REVIEW:

• Pros: A naked dog sang K.K. Faire (one of my favorites).
• Cons: I died.
• Rating: 8/10. Would die again.

I started redecorating my house a bit. I cleaned out the room on the left, and then started placing some items for my new themed room. But I soon came to the realization that I needed more space. So I decided to put this stuff in the basement instead. And being underground works out well for the theme I have planned, too.

So the mermaid furniture, which had been in my basement, is now in storage. My new basement is still waiting on some more items I ordered, but I’ll probably reveal it soon. However, the theme is very specific and obscure, so it’s very unlikely that any of you will guess what it is. 😛 But I will give you a hint: It’s based on a TV show that’s been off the air for over 10 years…but one that I just recently binged.

As for the room on the left, it’s currently empty. But I think I’ll put some Mario furniture in there soon.

I hope you’re all enjoying your weekend. The next Wi-Fi Moments video is coming very soon! 🙂

Gulliver sent me a letter thanking me for all the help I’ve given him. Instead of a hat or furniture item, he sent me a DIY recipe for the golden shovel! Yes! I’ve been waiting for this!

It requires a shovel and one gold nugget. So I grabbed some gold out of storage and made my first golden shovel.

I earned 1,000 Nook Miles for making it. I’ve now made three of the six golden tools in the game…and this is the first new one I’ve made in 11 months!

It’s kind of funny that it takes so long to get it, when it was the quickest and easiest golden tool to earn in the older games. 😛

C.J. was in town, and he had a freestyle challenge for me; I just had to catch five fish in a row without letting any get away. I quickly completed the challenge and sold the five fish for 3,500 bells. But later, I got 11 fish out of storage and sold them for 97,500 bells.

Bones was talking about how good it smells inside Nook’s Cranny. Sorry dawg, but I’m not about to go sticking my nose in Nook’s Cranny. 😛

Eloise was wearing sunglasses tonight, and I thought they looked very odd. Not just because it was dark out, but because her eyes are on the side of her head…so the glasses don’t line up with her eyes at all!

See you all next time. Never Stop Crossing!

There was a meteor shower in town last night, and Celeste decided to show up for this one. She taught me how to craft a Taurus bathtub.

I crafted one right away, using some materials I had in storage.

Gulliver was today’s special visitor, so I dug up the five pieces of his communicator on the beach. I returned them to him, and I’m hoping that tomorrow is the day I get my golden shovel recipe. If it’s not, I’m going to go through my old blog entries and count all the times I helped out Gulliver to see if I’ve reached 30 or not.

Agent S told me about an odd spy comic she’s been reading. It’s called “You Can’t See Me, My Eyes Are Closed!” The spy has good vision, and he’s going undercover at a company which only hires people with bad eyesight. So he has to find a way to fail an eye exam. 👀

I actually got stung by two scorpions tonight, even though I saw them both in time. One was in the corner of a cliff, and my net hit the cliff. The other one hid behind a tree where I couldn’t see it, from any angle. So when I swung my net at where I thought it was, it got me.

Note: No Friday Night Forest this week.
