Bugs, Birthdays, and Don

The Bug-Off was held last Saturday, and I participated (but just in one round). I caught 11 bugs in the three-minute time limit, with the last one being a long locust I caught with three seconds remaining. As time expired, my net promptly exploded in my hands. 😛

Bug-Off is over!

Flick confirmed that my 11 bugs netted me 13 points. I used ten of those points to score a butterfly backpack.

It was also Ketchup’s birthday, so I made sure to attend her party. Louie was also there to help her celebrate. I gave Ketchup some stacked bags that I customized to be green. Happy birthday, Ketchup!

Ketchup: Some stacked bags! I just KNEW you'd get me something great! I'll take good care of it!

On Monday, I found a scallop while diving…and of course, Pascal popped up to ask for it. He then questioned why flower beds are called “beds” when the flowers seem awake to him. 🤷

Pascal: Ever wonder why they call it a flower bed? They always seem real awake to me.

Tuesday, Ankha told me she chooses her perfume based on the weather. So she said that she smells like apple, in her tomb. I’m not sure any of that makes sense, because the weather wasn’t apple-ing outside.

Ankha: For example, today I smell like apple, in my tomb.

On Wednesday, June kidnapped me and took me to her house. She, Static, and Ketchup had a surprise birthday party for me.

Everyone: Happy birthday!

I blew out my candles, smacked a piñata, got some birthday cupcakes, and received a gift (some birthday candles). Thanks, June, Ketchup, and Static!

Having fun at my birthday party with Ketchup, June, and Static.

Today, I saw Don in the Roost. He said taking a cup of coffee for the road is great, except that he usually ends up spilling it if he’s with Sonny (aka Resetti).

Don: But when we get the call and I'm with Sonny? There's a 98 percent chance I'm spillin' that coffee.
Don: On account of him flippin' out and spillin' it for me! So maybe drinkin' it here is best, actually.

Here are a few other quick notes from the past week:

  • K.K. Slider performed K.K. Chorinho for me on Sunday.
  • K.K. also showed up Wednesday to play K.K. Birthday.
  • Label wanted to see me in an outdoorsy outfit today, and she gave me a music-fest shirt as an example. I kept the clothes I was already wearing, but added a baseball cap. Label liked it, but it wasn’t perfect. She gave me a Labelle hat.
Label: Oh, wow! You've really captured the outdoorsy look. Even the details are on point.

I recently posted a new video looking at some co-exclusive features in the Animal Crossing series. In other words, features that appeared in two games, but not the others. Each pair of games has something in common. Check it out!

See you next time!
