Everything’s Coming Up Bones

Yay Day is coming up on Sunday, and my villagers are already preparing for the event. They’re practicing giving compliments, but they’re not very good at it. On Wednesday, Octavian told me I’m not all that dumb (sometimes).

Octavian: Hey, you! Uhhh... You're not all that dumb. Sometimes.
Thanks. You too.

Bones was finally over his cold, and he thanked me for the medicine by giving me some cabana flooring.

Yesterday, Octavian asked me to deliver a letter to Drift. Drift showed me the letter, which was a bit rude. 😆 Classic Octavian, I guess. Or classic crankies, to be more precise.

Hi, Drift, I read your letter and you still sound L-A-M-E! Eat pear salad daily to get stronger! -Octavian

But Drift had a good sense of humor about it, and he laughed it off. Octavian later rewarded me with a playroom rug. Why do villagers always have so many carpets to give away? 🤔

Today, Bones was the one looking forward to Yay Day…and he may have been going a bit overboard, talking about killing me with kindness. 😉

Bones: Good vibes! Compliments galore! Mad props! Death by mad props...

He even said he was going to compliment me until I puke!

Bones: Watch out, 'cause I'm gonna compliment you 'til you puke this Sunday!

All this, and I probably won’t even be playing on Sunday. 😆

Octavian asked me for a new greeting, so I gave him a Splatoon-themed greeting: “I’m a squid now.” 🐙

Octavian: I'm a squid now!

When I ran into Bones again, he seemed really happy. He said everything was “coming up Bones.”

Bones: I'm really happy today, yip yip! Everything's coming up Bones!

Of course, this reminded me of “Everything’s coming up Milhouse” from The Simpsons (and the subsequent meme). Most likely, that’s what they had in mind when they wrote this line. 😏

Have a great weekend, everyone! I hope to see you again next week (or tomorrow if you also read my City Folk blog)! 🙂
