Scary Painting

On Monday, Apple gave me a flame tee for free. It was 🔥,so I put it on.

With Mother’s Day coming up in many countries, a new carnations furniture item can be found in the seasonal section of Nook Shopping. The “Thank-you Mom mug” from last year has returned, so you can buy that too if you’d like.

Carnations: 1,600 bells.

Agent S was very excited about the latest video game she bought. It has all of her favorite game elements, including custom mechs, skateboarding battles, and a fishing mini-game. 😛

Agent S: It has all my favorite game things! Custom mechs. Flirty dialogue trees. Rhythm-based skateboarding battles.

Yesterday, Jolly Redd was in town. He had an authentic scary painting for sale…finally! Even though he’s had the scary painting many times before, it was always the fake one. So I gladly purchased the real deal.

Today, I got the painting in the mail and donated it to the museum. It’s in that little section behind glass for the smaller paintings and statues…probably my least favorite part of the art gallery, but oh well.

Shep the dog was camping at the campsite today. I like Shep a lot, but I’m reluctant to force anyone out of town…especially since Rizzo is already gone. If I had an open spot though, I definitely would have taken Shep.

Shep, at the campsite: So far, I like what I'm seeing. 100 percent of Sheps would rate this campground highly.

Here’s an updated look at what my campsite looks like with a tent. You can also see my new incline on the left, and the museum in the top-left corner of this screenshot.

Over at Peach Park, I found Bones sitting on the ground next to the bench. I guess he’s just being a good dog by not jumping up on the furniture. But Bones, you’re allowed to use the bench, dawg!

Saharah was in town, and I bought four items from her: A blue medium round mat, a security-monitors wall, a blue kilim-style carpet (which is a rug, despite the name), and a paintball flooring. The security-monitors wall is really cool, and I plan on using it when I redesign my room on the left. I have an idea for the room, but I haven’t started on it yet.

I am planning on having Friday Night Forest this week. I made some minimal changes to my ocean sunfish tower, which adds a couple spaces on the middle level for observers to have a better view of the three fish. So if you’re visiting, please bring your ocean sunfish if you have one.

I’m also working on a simple ground pattern to welcome visitors as they arrive by seaplane.

See you all next time!

Louie’s 8-Pack?

Yesterday, Louie sent me a serene painting in the mail! Unfortunately, it was a counterfeit. I also had mail from Dodo Airlines; they sent me some DAL sunglasses.

Eloise was home, so I got to take a look at her house now that she’s finished unpacking. There’s a lot of yellow and brown in here.

K.K. Slider was in town for his usual Saturday night performance, so I joined Hornsby and Tybalt for the show. I asked for a random song, and he played K.K. Groove for the three of us.

Today, I did some early-afternoon fishing, which is something I have not done a lot. I typically play in the evening or at night. But the early play time helped me out, because I caught two new fish…the rainbowfish and nibble fish!

I caught a nibble fish! Come to think of it, I could use a bite!

I immediately donated them to the museum, and I only need three more fish now. Most likely, they’re morning/afternoon fish like these two…although they might not all be in season yet. Still, I’ll need to do more early fishing sessions like this!

Hornsby and Louie were having a conversation about Louie’s abs. Louie promised he would throw a party to show everyone his new eight-pack abs, but Hornsby wanted a sneak preview. When I encouraged Louie to show them early, he got angry at me, insisting they’re not ready yet. 😛

Louie: THEY'RE. NOT. READY!
If you work out half as much as you talk about working out, they would be ready!

I guess we’ll have to wait a bit longer…but I’m sure it’ll be absolutely worth the wait. 😛

Agent S asked me to catch a long locust for her today, so I did. In return, she gave me a sprite costume. She said she hopes it give my life some style…Agent S style. 😛

Agent S: That's going to be the name of my marketing division, once I have one. Agent S Style!

I don’t know about all that, but at least it helps me inch closer to my “Smile Isle” Nook Miles goal. I’ve currently completed 158 of the 300 favors I need for that achievement.

I hope you all had a good weekend! I’ll see you next time. Never Stop Crossing! 🙂
