On Wednesday, I was disappointed to find a goodbye letter from Octavian in the mail. He squid-daddled without giving me a chance to say goodbye.

By yesterday, his replacement had already moved in! It’s Curt the cranky bear, or “Curt the hot-blooded,” as he called himself. I’ve never really cared for Curt.

Today, Whitney was surprised by how late it was (as if 6 p.m. is late), and her jaw dropped. She held this pose for several seconds (until I hit the button), which looked pretty funny. 😆

She asked me to deliver a letter to Curt, but then she said never mind (because I didn’t have space for another letter). So I cleaned out some letter space and talked to her again. She again asked me to deliver a letter…but this time it was to Drift, not Curt! So I took the letter over, and Drift let me see it. Whitney actually signed it as “Princess Whitney!” 😆

When I returned to Whitney, she rewarded me with a stone wall.

Saharah was in town today, and I helped her out with two deliveries. I took some carpet packages to Pelly and Blathers. Saharah offered me a music room wall or a music room floor; I took the former.

Curt had all his furniture unpacked today, so I got to take a look at his house. He was watching a game on TV.

Outside, I listened in on a conversation between Caroline and Drift. They were arguing about hiccups, of all things!

Caroline hates them, and Drift loves them of course. This is just classic WW/CF era wackiness at its best.

At Nookington’s, Tom Nook had some special dialogue for me. Even though I’ve seen multiple parts of this story before (so I haven’t mentioned the repeat parts), I don’t think I’ve seen the part I saw today. Tom Nook said that he has given up his dream of opening a select shop in the city. Apparently Sable talked him out of it.

He values her friendship, but he admitted that her wisdom frustrates him.

Anyway, Filbert has been sick with a cold lately. So I gave him some medicine yesterday, and then again today.

Have a great weekend, everyone! I’ll see you next time.

On Wednesday, Octavian assumed that I thought he wants to do nothing but collect seashells. That…hadn’t crossed my mind a single time, but okay, sure.

He said he likes to collect shells, but he insisted that he’s an octopus first and foremost. Octopi can collect and use shells too, so I’m not sure I get his point.

On Thursday, Mom sent an amusing letter about Dad falling out of a tree. 😛

Pascal was standing by the shore, and he told me it’s really mean to call something fishy. 🐟

He handed me an anchor and then dived into the ocean.

Truffles asked me if she looked “crazy cute” in her outfit. I moved the slider towards “Not so much…” and she got mad at me for mumbling.

I guess I should have moved the slider all the way to “Not so much” for a clearer response. 😆

Today is La-Di-Day, the day that villagers can sing a song that you can choose as the new town tune. I didn’t ask anyone to sing for me though, because I’m still fairly happy with my current town tune. But villagers still talk about the event, including Filbert.

I went down to the Roost to check out the Saturday night show. I asked for a random song, and K.K. Slider performed “Neopolitan” for me.

Have a good night, everyone! I’ll be back again next week. Never Stop Crossing!

On Wednesday, Whitney was ecstatic about her new outfit. She thought it made her look like she was glowing. 😛

However, this was not the outfit I gave her last week! That was a bunny shirt, and this…is not.

Yesterday was November 1st, and I got my latest bank statement from the postal division at town hall. I earned 66,750 bells for the month. I’m now 2/3 of the way to the maximum monthly payout!

Saharah was in town, and I helped her out again. I took some carpet packages to Tom Nook, Mabel, and Pelly (for Phyllis). She offered me a tropical vista or a daisy meadow.

I chose the wallpaper, but it didn’t matter. It seems like the items she offer repeat very frequently, and I rarely see anything that I haven’t already acquired from her. Maybe she has a smaller selection of items in this game…because in City Folk, there are items from her I’m still waiting to get, after 16 years!

I shot down a balloon present that contained a lunar lander! I already shot down a space station a few weeks back, and now I’ve shot something off the moon?! 😆

Today, the flea market was underway. I asked Drift about four of his five bugs, and he said they were all off-limits. The whole event seems pointless if the villagers refuse to sell almost everything. (I didn’t ask about his covered wagon.)

Over at Octavian’s house, he told me that all of his stuff has a weird odor.

But he wanted to know which item was the most stinky. 😛

His lone outfit (a bone shirt) was the obvious choice, because everything else was just space items. But he told me he wasn’t selling the shirt. And because I didn’t want to take his space stuff he may need to return to his home planet someday, I just left him to stew with his stinky stuff. 😆

Bones was trying to move out of town, but I quickly changed his mind for him.

I headed down to the Roost, where I asked K.K. Slider for a random song. He performed K.K. Cruisin’ for me.

After the show, I made a quick stop at Nookington’s and then I went to town hall. I found a classic bed in the recycle bin. Why would anyone throw away a good night’s sleep?

I’ll see you all next time. Goodnight! 🌛
