Forest’s Sweethearts

I received Roald’s goodbye letter in the mail today. He said he was sure I’d remember him fondly…. ha! Thanks for the laugh!

Hoo-ha, Jeff, I'm moving. I have my reasons. No worries, yo! I'm sure you'll remember me fondly. Keep pumpin'! See ya! -From Roald

Crazy Redd was in town with a warm painting to sell, but I gave Redd the cold shoulder instead.

Rosie surprised me by saying that she and I were like Forest’s sweethearts!

Rosie: Y'know, I was thinking...we're like Forest's sweethearts, aren't we?

I didn’t know she liked me that way! But then, she pretty much took it back, and instead called me a stinky boy. Wow, thanks, Rosie.

Rosie: Ah! Wait, what am I saying? You're a boy! A stinky boy! Um...look, that's not...um...

She said none of it was coming out right. So I guess we’re not sweethearts any more. 😛

By the way, many trees in town are now pink. You can see one in the background of the above screenshots.

I walked into Gaston’s house, and he was still sick. Oddly enough, he was insulting the cold for not being a “real” cold.

Gaston: A real cold woulda put me in the hospital, in a pond. HACKGH!!!

Sorry Gaston, but Animal Crossing doesn’t even have a hospital! Well, I guess Happy Home Designer does, but I have no way to transport you there, pal. So I did the next best thing and gave him some medicine.

Big Top has been asking me for new clothes for a while, so I bought him a fairy tale shirt at Able Sisters. However, it never made it to him. Bree stopped me along the way, wanting to trade for it. She gave me a shanty wall in return.

I didn’t bother going back to buy Big Top another shirt, because the other shirts they had were even uglier. Maybe another time, big guy.

Roald’s replacement has not moved in yet. I’m sure that will happen by next week. See you then!

Go, Roald, Go!

When I visited Rosie tonight, she said that every day of her life is more boring than the last one.

Rosie: Y'know, every day of my life is more boring than the last one, silly.

However, she just happened to know of a cure for her affliction: Pink furniture. 😛

Rosie: If only I had, oh, say, some pink furniture! Then life would be AWESOME!!

Unfortunately for her, Tom Nook didn’t have any for sale today. 😛

Crazy Redd had a solemn painting for sale in his tent. I solemnly swear he is up to no good, because I didn’t need that one.

A new Message of the Week was posted on the bulletin board, and it said if you can’t say anything nice, write it down.

*Message of the Week* Can't say anything nice? Write it down!
This is what keeps Twitter going.

In Roald’s house, I found a nice surprise… Roald is moving out! He was actually being nice about it. Well, there’s a first time for everything. Fortunately, it’s also the last. Later, dumbbell.

Roald: Don't ever forget me, man! You hear me? Never forget! Peace, b-b-buddy!

Gaston was sick with a cold, so I gave him some medicine I already had with me. He said I was so good to him, that he shouldn’t have called me all those names.

Gaston: You're so good to me. I shouldn't have called you all those names.

Over the weekend, I posted a new Wild World video, Episode 18. It shows some highlights of things that have happened in Forest from December through March. If you haven’t seen it yet, here it is. I hope you enjoy it!

Golden Net

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

Tortimer: Your bravery is the net that's captured our hearts!

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

Tortimer: but it is the net of love that catches our hearts! Contemplate that, sprout...
Wait, I thought my bravery was the net that captured 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.

Jeff swings the golden net in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

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?

Rosie: Jeff... Is that you? What are you doing up this late? Something fun, I hope!

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. 😛

Roald: OK, then from this moment on, you're dumb

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. 😛

Gaston: So what if it's March? You can still catch a mole cricket!

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. 😛
