Tonight, Kiki asked if I still had the photo of her that she gave me. Of course I do! She said it was like she gave me a piece of her heart, and I kept it safe and warm. Aww.

I had a chat with Bree, and she told me that she can’t fake-laugh, or fake-cry on command (like Kabuki can).

She continued, saying that she’s not talking trash, because it’s not trash if it’s true. She then gave me some bamboo flooring for free. Haha, Bree seems almost likable today. Go figure.

Big Top wanted to have a competition to see who could catch a horse mackerel first. It took me a surprisingly long time to catch one, but I still beat Big Top. He tried to say I only won because he wasn’t really trying. Well, he was inside his house the whole time, so I guess that’s true. Even if it was a bit insulting. But he gave me a citrus wall for the fish.

Here’s a quick recap of a few other things tonight:
- Crazy Redd had a perfect painting for sale, but I didn’t need it.
- Kabuki was packed up to move out, but I talked him out of it.
- A message posted to the bulletin board reminded me that the first fireworks festival of the year is coming up on Saturday.
I fished for over an hour, and caught a few valuable bugs I saw on trees during that time too. I made over 100,000 bells on the night, caught five pieces of trash, and…still didn’t find either of the fish I’ve been looking for. I think I’m going to need to try even harder in August.
