Margie’s Birthday

I received a letter from Margie in the mail today, and at first, I was afraid she moved out. Fortunately, that wasn’t the case. She was just inviting me to her birthday party, which was actually today!

Dear Jeff, Since January 28th is my birthday, I'm planning a little party! I hope you come...with a present! See ya! -From Margie

But when I showed up at her house, she looked shocked! She didn’t even remember sending me the invitation! Awkward

Margie: Oh! Did I send you an invitation, J-puff? I can't remember...

I gave her a Nintendo bench that I bought at Nookington’s last week, and she seemed to enjoy it. Although she gave me an iron frame in return, which made it seem like a trade instead of a birthday gift. She said we’re friends forever, although it didn’t exactly feel genuine at the moment. 😛

Margie: Friends forever, J-puff!

Mathilda was also at the party, and she said she loves celebrating other people’s birthdays. That’s because she gets to enjoy eating cake, without being the one that’s getting older. 😛

Mathilda: 'Cause I get to eat cake, but I don't get any older, wee baby!

Back outside, I was near the museum when I ran into Antonio. He said I was so far away from my house that he wondered if I was sleeping outside tonight.

Antonio: Whoa, you're so far away from your home today... Sleeping outside tonight?

Aside from the fact that Wild World towns aren’t that big to begin with, I wasn’t even that far! Maybe a 20-second walk from home? I think Antonio needs to keep his nose out of my business. 👃 😛

I visited Goldie, and she surprised me by telling me that Big Top and Benedict are getting along too well.

Goldie: Benedict and Big Top are getting along way too well.

She said it was making her jealous! Aww, Goldie, don’t feel bad. Wanna take a walk? Grab your leash and let’s go.

Goldie: I can't quite explain why... but it's making me really jealous!

Wendell the walrus was in town, and he was starving (as usual). I gave him a bitterling that I caught in the river and he wolfed it down. In return, he gave me a “road 1 pattern.” It’s one of the four corners used with the road patterns.
