Joining the Roald Club

Mom sent me an interesting letter in the mail today. She said that she put one of her old sweaters in the dryer and it shrunk. In fact, it shrunk so much that she put it on my old teddy bear! For some reason, I’m picturing it on Mr. Bean’s teddy bear. 😛

Dear Jeff, I accidentally put one of my sweaters in the dryer and it shrunk. Now your old teddy bear wears it. He looks great! -Mom

Big Top told me how much he loves sea bass. That made me wonder if everything was alright with him. But he suggested a competition to see who could catch one first.

Big Top: I'll show you just how much I love the sea bass!

Roald approached me and gave me a free tartan rug. He said I was now an official member of the Roald Club. But that meant I would have to start jogging, because he scorns flabby members! Man, what is with chubby penguins always calling me fat? Puck does the same thing in the GameCube game.

When I visited Margie, she wasn’t officially sick, but she told me she had a sore throat. So she was sucking on a sweet tea lozenge.

Margie: I'm sucking on a sweet tea lozenge to soothe my throat.

Bree was sick with a cold, so I gave her some medicine. How come Margie can get herself a lozenge, but Bree can’t buy her own medicine?

I went fishing, and caught a sea bass for Big Top (after catching not one, but two tires). I took the fish to Big Top, and he was disappointed that he lost the competition. He rewarded me with 500 bells for the sea bass, though.

Jeremiah asked if I had ever eaten shark fin soup. I said no, and he was shocked. He said that was like not living half my life in a pond. 😛

Jeremiah: It's like not living half of your life, in a pond!

A few other notes:

  • It was raining today, so I didn’t have to water any flowers. Whew!
  • Kiki tried to move out. I stopped her.
  • Crazy Redd had an amazing painting for sale. Not so amazing, because I didn’t need it.
  • Jeremiah gave me a free shanty wall.
  • I only found one of today’s fossils. That’s the one downside of having green grass again. Less contrast for finding dig spots.

  1. What if Maple gave one of her Papa bears to you because it actually was yours and that your mom secretly put the sweater ON the bear?
