Month: June 2024

On Wednesday, Filbert wanted to compete to see who could catch a tiger butterfly first. But he framed it in a funny way: He wondered if the butterflies get ticklish if you touch their bellies, so he wanted to find out!

However his enthusiasm seemed to die out seconds later, when I handed over the tiger butterfly. He said he “guesses” he’ll take it. 🤔

He made no further mention of tickling it or making it laugh. He just gave me a regal carpet and went on with his life. I guess I’ll never know if they’re ticklish.

Speaking of butterflies, I saw an even bigger one yesterday: a birdwing butterfly. I had to cross the river and chase it down, but it was worth it. Nothing this big should be allowed to fly around freely without me snagging it. 😆

Filbert recently came down with a cold, so I gave him some medicine yesterday and today. Get well soon, Filbert!

Octavian asked me to deliver a letter to Bones today, and he only gave me ten minutes to do it. That wasn’t a problem, though. Bones loved the letter, and Octavian thanked me for saving his hide.

And yet, my reward was just a beige box. I guess his hide isn’t worth much. 📦

Later on, I went to the Roost to check out K.K. Slider’s Saturday night performance. He played K.K. Gumbo for me; it’s not one of my favorites, but it’s not bad either.

I posted my latest video episode the other day, so check out episode 66:

See you all next time!

It was raining so much on Thursday that Filbert thought he was going to dissolve. But fortunately, he didn’t.

When I visited Octavian, he asked me what I thought of his clothes. He was just wearing a simple big dot shirt, so I just said “meh.” This angered him immensely; he completely, and utterly, tore into me.

If you really think one big dot is the peak of fashion, then you must’ve been living underwater most of your life.

Yesterday, I shot down Gulliver’s UFO…leaving him unsure of his location.

I gathered up his five missing UFO parts, and he rewarded me with another Metroid. A good item, sure, but not what I wanted.

On the bulletin board, there was a new “Talking to Myself” post. The author (again, not sure if it’s Pelly or Phyllis) complains about always having to wash her sister’s lunchbox, in addition to her own.

Today, Filbert wondered why we were both up so early. Sure, technically it was the morning, but it was only about ten minutes to noon!

Still, he was thinking about going back to bed. Naps are always nice. 😴

It did feel like a sleepy day, and not much was going on in Forest. But I returned tonight to check out K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show. I asked for a random song, and he performed K.K. Bossa for me. Good song. 👍

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everyone!

On Wednesday, I was quite surprised to find a goodbye letter from Peanut in the mail.

It’s been a while since I’ve had a villager move out without warning (Mitzi was the last one, in February). And like Mitzi, Peanut had become one of my favorites. Peanut was probably my #2 in town, behind Bones, in fact. She grew on me a lot during her 3-year stay. I’m sad to see her go. 🙁

I also received a letter from the postal division at town hall, telling me I earned 58,200 bells of interest this month.

When I visited Tank, he was flattered that I visited him so late at night…even though it was only 6 p.m.! He also said he thought I’d appreciate the musk of his room? He’s an odd dude sometimes. 😛

Yesterday, I found a new house in town. Peanut’s replacement has moved in already?! Another squirrel was inside, Filbert. He’s not bad, but he’s no Peanut.

Today, I got to see the inside of Filbert’s house now that he is fully unpacked. He has some kiddie furniture, a couple of cacti, a couple of gyroids, a robo-dresser, a satellite, and a TV.

Drift asked me to deliver a letter to Tank, and I agreed to help out. Tank really enjoyed the letter, even saying that Drift should be a stand-up comic!

He showed me the letter, and I didn’t exactly agree with his assessment. 😛

Oh well. At least Tank enjoyed it. Drift later rewarded me with 510 bells. What a surprise. 😛

Of course, it’s June now…so many summer bugs are now available. I caught my first goliath beetle of the year tonight. Good luck if you’re out there bug hunting!

At town hall, I found a train set in the recycle bin. Finding furniture here seems less common than it does in City Folk, but I’ll gladly take some free items once in a while!

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