Nookington’s had a froggy chair for sale today for just 960 bells. I snatched it up for my pad. I’m happy to report that it farts in Wild World, like all true froggy chairs should.

Crazy Redd was in town, with a perfect painting. But of course, I didn’t need it.

Big Top asked me to catch a crucian carp for him, because it would look really good in a sandwich. But I didn’t want to help him out. I’m still bitter about that time I caught a fish for him and then he said he already caught one. 😛

Antonio asked me to make a delivery to Goldie, and I agreed to help out. It took me a while to find Goldie (she was hiding behind town hall), but I did make it within Antonio’s 10-minute deadline.

The gift was a bear shirt, and Goldie just thought it was okay. When I told Antonio the news, he gave me a lovely carpet to thank me.

Kabuki asked me for some new clothes, so I bought a night sky tee for him at Able Sisters. Kabuki loved it! As a reward, he gave me a star shirt.

The latest Message of the Week on the bulletin board encouraged readers to take a break, and not pick fruit all day. I think this could also apply to New Horizons players who are hard at work reshaping their islands. 😛 Sometimes you just need a break.

Margie had her furniture packed up in her trunk boxes tonight; she was trying to move out of town! But fortunately, I was able to quickly talk her out of it.

I found two of today’s fossils, and I took them to Blathers to be identified. Surprisingly, they were both dino droppings!

Mathilda asked me to make a delivery to Big Top, and I agree to hop on over to his house. Mathilda sent him a vegetarian shirt, and Big Top just seemed to think it was alright. Mathilda rewarded me with an exotic screen for helping her out.

I ran into Antonio, and he was talking about the existence of a golden watering can. He didn’t want one of those though; he wants a pink one.

Maybe he’ll have to play New Horizons and customize it himself! 😛

Not long after starting up the game tonight, I realized something was wrong. In fact, last week’s blog entry was wrong! Mathilda did not waltz away after all. She’s still living in Forest!

I thought I was letting her leave last week! I still had video of last week’s session, so I went back to check her reactions each time I told her to stay. This is what she said:

1. Don’t try to stop me! My life depends on it!
2. I won’t be able to get away from this place if you keep saying that!
3. It’s not you, it’s me. I knew you’d understand…

Number 2 must’ve been the one that changed her mind. But I was always under the impression that it was the last thing they say that determines whether they stay or go. Apparently that’s not the case…unless number 3 doesn’t mean what I thought. I don’t know if posting this will help any of you with potential move-outs, but I figured it doesn’t hurt to document it. In the meantime, I still have Mathilda in my town.

When I spoke with Antonio, he was discussing the “brain freeze” you get after a cold drink. Not only does he claim to love brain freeze, but he thinks it actually makes him smarter!

Big Top asked me for an amazing outfit that will knock everyone’s socks off. I went to Able Sisters and decided to buy a spade shirt for him. While I was there, I spoke with Sable, and she gave me some advice: She said the quickest way to get something done is to just do it.

A bit obvious perhaps, but it’s certainly true! 😉

Down at the Roost, I checked out a musical performance by K.K. Slider. I asked him for a random song, and he played “To the Edge” for me. It’s a bit boring and repetitive; not my favorite song.

After that, I took the spade shirt over to Big Top. However, he said it wasn’t “daring” enough and he refused it! Ugh. Fine then, no shirt for you!
