Punch Out

Pascal recently wondered which came first, sea stars or actual stars. So he thought maybe we should be calling stars “sky fish” instead.

Pascal: They're called sea stars, but how do we know who came first? Maybe stars should be called sky fish.

Yesterday, Punchy told me that watching a movie made him want to go to new places (and move out of Forest).

Punchy: I was watching this movie all about going to new places...meeting new folks...and learning new stuff...

I thought about it for a bit, and I eventually decided to let him go. He has been here a year and a half, which is a decent amount of time for a random move-in. (In other words, he’s not a villager I hand-picked.)

Label was in town, and she wanted to see me in a sporty outfit. She gave me a muscle tank to use as an example, but I instead went with a baseball uniform, baseball cap, and cleats. Label loved the look, and she gave me a Labelle skirt.

Label: I am sooo impressed. Thank you for putting it together for me!

Today, Chadder the cheesy mouse was camping at the campsite for a 2nd time. (The first time was in 2022.) Why do I always get so many repeat campers? Anyway, I played a game with him…and lost.

Chadder, at the campsite: It's a heart!

Of course, I went to visit Punchy one last time before he was gone. Good luck on your move, Punchy! I’m sure we’ll meet again, in one game or another!

Punchy: And I'm gonna go have an adventure!

Here are a few other quick notes about the past week or so.

  • Last Wednesday, Bones gave me his photo again after I caught a stinkbug for him.
  • Last Thursday, I played a treasure hunt game with Static…and the prize was another copy of his photo too.
  • On Monday, Bones was sick with a cold. I gave him some medicine, and he gave me an energetic sweater.
  • I helped out Gullivarrr, and he sent me a pirate-treasure robe on Tuesday.
  • Bob started calling me “burrito” yesterday. 🌯

See you next time!
