On Thursday, Gulliver sent me a tubeteika in the mail. Later, I (finally) started working on my new race course. It’s actually not the one I was originally planning for September, but I had an idea for something different instead.
Tonight, K.K. Slider was in town, and I told him I was in a good mood. So he played K.K. Groove for me, Ketchup, Static, and Bones.
I haven’t been giving Rio many gifts, even though I still need to earn her photo. I need to pick up the pace! 😛 So I gave her a snare drum tonight, and she seemed to enjoy it.
She gave me a kung-fu tee in return. I enjoyed it significantly less than she enjoyed the drum. 😆
I then found Agent S in an unusual place: the north beach. The camera switch to an awkward overhead view as she told me about the comic she’s currently reading. It’s a comic about stand-up comics. 😛
She said she’s considering adding a stand-up routine to her repertoire. Sounds good!
I’ll be working more on my new race over the next several days or so, but I’m not sure when it will be done. But stay tuned for updates!
Last Saturday, Gullivarrr sent me a pirate’s hat in the mail, and K.K. Slider performed K.K. Break for his Saturday night show.
On Sunday, I bought this mining car at Paradise Planning. It would make a good addition to Donkey Kong Country! If I ever fully rebuild that area, of course.
Today, Bree the mouse was camping at the campsite. I had no interest in inviting her to town.
Gulliver was washed up on the beach, and I helped him out by recovering his phone parts.
Tonight, I headed over to Matthew’s town Fernwood. He was holding a surprise birthday party/costume party for Jac. I was the first one there, but Nami and Nicky also joined in. By 11:00, the guest of honor (Jac) arrived. He was surprised to be greeted by an ant imp, mummy, witch/cat, and skeleton. 😆
A bit later, Matthew was away from the group when he said he saw “something funny here.” I figured he was just trying to lure one of us into a pitfall. 😛 But that wasn’t it at all; he found Pietro the clown sheep, wearing a pirate bandanna, frowning and cooking. 😱
Matthew had a Halloween-themed obstacle course that I thought we were going to race on. But he asked if we had pitfall seeds on us, and we didn’t. Matthew disappeared for a while, and I thought he was crafting pitfall seeds, but we never got back to it. But the course looked pretty cool from what I saw of it.
We later went to class, and I failed the test somehow!
That’s not fair! I stayed up so late studying that I was dead tired in the morning! 😉 (And yes, we were making skeleton puns all night.) 😆
We hung out at various spots around town, we drank some coffee at the Roost, and we eventually made it to Matthew’s house for Jac’s party. Happy birthday, Jac! 🎂
Matthew ended the session around 12:40 (my time). I had a lot of fun, so thanks to Matthew for hosting, and thanks to everyone who came for the good time! 🙂
Yesterday, C.J. was in town with a seasports challenge for me. He wanted me to catch some big-time fish, so I caught a carp, a black bass, and a tilapia. I then grabbed 15 fish out of storage, and C.J. paid me 155,700 bells for them all.
Today, Gullivarrr was on the beach, and I went diving to retrieve his communicator for him. I also found a scallop, which prompted Pascal to pop up and ask me for it. He also questioned why “rasp” isn’t a color. 😛
For the first time since “beating” the Happy Home Paradise DLC, I went to Lottie’s Island and chose to design another vacation home. I ran into Boyd the gorilla at the restaurant, and he said he’d like to work with heavy equipment.
I chose a previously unused location, where a fountain can be seen in the background. I’d like to imagine this is a new Animal Crossing town, still under construction. I used all three suggested construction vehicles out here: the excavator, bulldozer, and steamroller. Boyd’s house is yellow with a green roof, just like a banana. 🍌 😛
If you’re wondering about the lone tiger butterfly, Niko gave it to me as a gift from Nat. I was able to release it to make a living decoration out of it. 😛
Indoors, I used a construction-site wall and construction-site flooring. I added another steamroller inside; it’s a must for any house! 😉 I also gave him a bed, a portable toilet, a utility sink, a couple of chairs, and a few other simple amenities. He seemed to enjoy it!
Back at the office, Lottie gave me another promotion: I’m now a Superstar Designer! That included a pay raise, as I now get paid 20,000 Poki for vacation homes.
Lottie surprised me even further, and this may be a slight spoiler. So if you don’t want to be spoiled by this, you may want to skip the rest of this entry. So leave now, blah blah blah, okay. Gone now? She suggested that we should add a gallery to the cafe, which will be on another floor. I never even knew there was such a thing! I’m not sure when I’ll actually work on it, though. 😆
I went over to the hospital to donate half of today’s earnings to a future expansion. However, I’m still 69,000 Poki away from my goal. That expansion won’t be coming anytime soon. 😛 Hope there aren’t any patients dying to get in!
Enjoy your weekend, everyone! See you next time! 🙂
