Camel for an Elephant

Teddy asked me to make a delivery to Margie tonight, and he only gave me ten minutes to do it. I rushed over to Margie’s house, but she wasn’t home. After a bit of searching around, I found her near town hall. Teddy sent her a camel shirt.

Margie: Well, looky here. It's a camel shirt. Huh...

She clearly wasn’t thrilled with it, but she thanked me anyway. When I returned to Teddy, he gave me some steel flooring for making the delivery.

I found some purple tulips near Big Top’s house, and I swiped them from right under his nose.

Rosie had all her belongings packed up in boxes, and she planned to move out of town.

Rosie: I've gotta do what's right for ME this time! I'm really sorry, but no!
Her catchphrase fits in flawlessly here.

Fortunately, I got her to change her mind (I think). I recently realized that I like all eight of my town villagers now. I can’t say the same for any of my towns in other games.

Mint wanted to visit my house, but I turned down the offer (as I usually do). Also, Crazy Redd was in town… but he didn’t have anything I needed.

Black Fur

The acorn festival is over, but the acorns remain; they are still scattered all over town, and I need to clean them all up now. What a pain.

I visited Teddy tonight, and he asked me to let him do sit-ups in my house. That sounded like an odd request, but I figured he was just asking to visit my house. I told him no.

Teddy: Don't ask me why, just let me do sit-ups in your pad! Please, in a pond!

Nookington’s had another spotlight item today, two weeks after the last one. However, it was the same spotlight item: the hamster cage!

Timmy, in a smoky shop: You have a keen eye! That's our spotlight product...the hamster cage!
I don’t think all this smoke is good for the hamster.

Kiki asked me for some black furniture, as she does quite frequently, so I bought a modern sofa for her. When I took it over to her, she was surprised that I knew she was looking for black fur…niture.

Kiki: How in the world did you know I was into collecting black fur
You’ve only asked me about 893 times.

She rewarded me with a tartan rug.

Big Top was talking about how all fish have the same exact face…

Big Top: It seems like all fish have the exact same face...

…especially sea bass. Well, they do look quite familiar.

Big Top: Especially the sea bass! Talk about a familiar face.

He was really asking me to catch a sea bass for him. Luckily for him, I already had one in my pockets! He gladly accepted it and gave me an ornate wall in return.

Back behind my house, I found a new black rose! It’s always a nice surprise when you find a new hybrid flower. I put it in my house for storage.

Kiki’s Birthday, Acorn Fest

I was surprised to find Rosie at Kiki’s house tonight. It’s Kiki’s birthday, and I forgot all about it. Fortunately, I had a piece of furniture in my pockets. It was a desk light, even though I was going to put it in my house. Oh well, I couldn’t not give Kiki a present.

Kiki: I'll treasure this forever! Or until it breaks... Whichever comes first.

Rosie’s catchphrase made it sound like she was contradicting herself.

Rosie: Happy, happy, happy birthday, Kiki! Yaaaaay, but no!

But Kiki’s birthday wasn’t the only special occasion; the Acorn Festival is taking place this week! Acorns can be found underneath regular trees, and Benedict sang the festival theme song for me.

Benedict, singing: Cornimer's by my side! Wading through an acorn tide!

Cornimer was standing outside of town hall. While I didn’t collect all of the acorns in town, I did pick up a bunch of them. I gave them to Cornimer, and he gave me several pieces of mush furniture in return…including this mushy stool sample.

Cornimer: Yeppers, looks like it's time for your prize. How 'bout a mush stool?

Cornimer also revealed my acorn fortune.

Your secret fortune: Medium Acorn. Life: Most likely, yes. Hopes: It will end well. Karma: You're on track. Look behind you!

Mint was all packed up and ready to move out of town, but I got her to change her mind. She hasn’t been here long enough yet!

Mint: I'm sorry, but I need more.

Anyway, the Acorn Festival prevented Crazy Redd from showing up this week. Good luck with your acorn hunting, for those of you who play! I’ll see you next time.
