Mayor Tortimer was waiting for me outside my house today; he congratulated me for catching every type of bug in the game.

He gave me the golden net, calling it the net of love that catches our hearts.

Regardless, this thing is huge! It’s nice to have it, even if I don’t plan on using it much. At least not anytime soon.

I ran into Rosie, and she asked what I was doing up so late. It was only about 5:20 p.m. in the game! It wasn’t even dark out yet! What’s wrong with her?

Crazy Redd had a rare painting for sale, but I already got the real rare painting earlier this year.

Kiki, Rosie, and Margie all made me feel unliked today. They all said they wished they could talk to someone from another town. Roald, not surprisingly, wasn’t any better. He gave me a new nickname: dumbbell. I just took this picture halfway through the word, to make it look even worse. 😛

It’s pretty bad when Gaston of all people is the only villager that doesn’t seem to be rude. He just told me I could still catch a mole cricket even though it’s March now. I had no interest in catching a mole cricket, but at least he didn’t call me dumb today. 😛

I shook a few trees, and when some bees came at me, I figured that was a good time to end my game for the day. 😛

I played earlier today, and it helped that I hadn’t changed my Wii U time since Daylight Saving Time began. The extra hour allowed me to try for the peacock butterfly, so I grabbed my purple and black hybrids out of my house and put them outside. I also noticed a new purple tulip had popped up.

No peacocks appeared immediately of course, so I went on and made my rounds (watering flowers and speaking with villagers). I saved Big Top from moving again, and I checked out Crazy Redd’s tent. He had a solemn painting for sale, but I didn’t need it.

When I visited Rosie, she told me she was on a miso soup diet. She has to eat drink ten gallons of soup every day! Yikes!

I visited Bree, and she reminded me to keep watering my flowers. But then she made an odd analogy about flowers and women.

She said that flowers, like women, might hit me with a net!

Back outside, Gaston wanted to trade his backyard fence for my tiger butterfly, no matter what Gaston thought about it. Wait, what?

After that, I returned home to look for a peacock butterfly. I tried walking around back and forth, and I tried going in and out of my house a number of times. It was taking a while, and I was about to give up. But then…I saw it! I caught the peacock, and it was the last bug I needed! Yay! 😀

I rushed over to the museum and handed it to Blathers. The insect exhibit at the museum is now complete!

I still need two fish and two paintings to complete the museum. The two fish won’t be available until July, and the two paintings could take me even longer (unless I get lucky). But it feels good to at least finish the bug exhibit. 🙂

I found a note in a bottle on the beach tonight, and it announced a new movie! It has an all-star cast and it cost $20 billion to make! Except the note didn’t happen to mention the title of the movie… Oops.

I visited Big Top, and he told me that he is happy to make more friends, even if those friends are fish.

And he must have a lot of fishy friends, because his house is still filled with fish. Even after all these months, he still doesn’t have a single piece of furniture other than fish aquariums.

Crazy Redd was in town, and I bought another awesome painting from him. This is the 4th awesome painting I’ve bought from him, and it ended up being just like all the others…fake.

I listened in on a conversation between Kiki and Rosie. Kiki saw an article about high heels in Ms. Nintendique magazine, and she said it reminded her of Rosie. Rosie seemed offended, saying that she doesn’t even wear shoes.

Kiki responded that it was because Rosie does martial arts, and she could do some serious damage by kicking with high heels on. Yikes, what exactly is she thinking about kicking? Actually, I don’t think I want to know.

Bree was still sick, so I gave her some medicine once again. I want her to feel healthy, so that she can prance right out of town. 😛

When I visited Roald, he was being a little…weird.

Even though the peacock butterfly is officially in-season now that March is here, it is a daytime bug. And I played much too late in the day to find one. But I’ll keep it in mind, and I’ll have to try to catch it soon.
