On Sunday night, Apple was doing something she called “dance crafting.” She starts with a theme and then makes up a dance for it. Apparently, she was a mountain bike on this particular night. 😛

The third fireworks festival of the year was underway, and many of my villagers were having a good time at the plaza. Isabelle gave me a flower bopper this week.

Yesterday, Gulliver was in town and I dug up his communicator pieces for him. I received my reward today; he sent me another silk hat.

Tybalt was sick with a cold today, so I bought some medicine for him.

Once he took it, he started to feel better. He rewarded me with a sleeveless parka.

Apollo was complaining about online shopping, telling me that he once received a gigantic, 8-foot-tall statue after he thought he was ordering a tiny figurine. In reality, the exact opposite is far more likely: Receiving something much smaller than you were expecting.

I’ll see you all next time!

On Thursday, Bones told me that he wants to start learning jujitsu. However, he didn’t know where he could find some books about it. Hmm, has he looked through all the hundreds of books in his house?

There was some beef Stu up at the campsite, but I didn’t have an appetite for the guy. (Maybe if I had some broth and a potato.)

At Able Sisters today, they had an Alice in Wonderland dress (apparently called an adventure dress) on display in the window. I thought that was pretty cool, even if it doesn’t exactly suit me. ♣️♥️♠️♦️

Bones asked me if fish have ears. The reason for his question was even stranger than the question itself: Every time he eats fish, he’s afraid there could be bugs hiding in the fish’s ears. And he doesn’t want to eat bugs, because bugs are his friends. 😛

It was K.K. Slider night, and the singing dog performed K.K. Condor for me and Apple. It’s one of my (many) favorites.

Last month, I pointed out that (at the time), villagers that were not seated would disappear once K.K. Slider’s performance started. That is no longer the case, as I saw Eloise and Midge walk through the “stage” area tonight.

If you haven’t already seen it, my latest video compares pitfall dialogue throughout the Animal Crossing series. Check it out if you’re interested!

I hope you’re all having a great day! Enjoy the rest of your weekend, and I’ll see you next time!

Yesterday (Tuesday), I found Gullivarrr washed up on the beach. I went diving for his phone, and found it on my 4th try. I returned it to him.

Some new seasonal items are now available, including the cucumber horse and eggplant cow (those items will apparently alternate, so check Nook Shopping on separate days to obtain them both).

Today, Gullivarrr sent me another pirate bandanna; this is the 4th one he’s given me! And yet, he’s still only sent one pirate-ship cannon. Why not send more of the cool stuff, Gullivarrr? …If that is your real name.

But I received something else in the mail that more than made up for my Gullivarrr disappointment: Louie sent me some art! Just three days after Apollo sent me a tremendous statue, Louie sent me a valiant statue.

Not only that, but it was an authentic work of art! And one that I needed for the museum as well! How lucky!

Saharah was in town today. Since I’ve been ignoring her lately, I decided I was overdue to buy some stuff from her today. I ended up with a simple medium brown mat, shutter wall, monochromatic wavy rug, ocean-horizon wall, and dark-chocolates flooring.

Forest desperately needs some new blood; it’s been nearly four months since a new villager moved in (Eloise, in April). I’ve been waiting for Midge to ask to leave, but so far she hasn’t. So I’m thinking about letting Tia go if she asks next. I like both Midge and Tia, but I don’t want to keep everyone forever. Things get a bit stale when your villagers never change.

Tybalt has a birthday coming up later this month, so I don’t want him to leave just yet. But I might soon be adding him to that list too, especially if nobody else leaves. We’ll see!
