It’s Bright Nights week in Wild World, and villagers’ homes (and some cedar trees) are decorated with festive colored lights. Here’s a photo of Eloise’s and Caroline’s homes:

After looking around at all of the houses, I decided that I liked Octavian’s house best (mainly due to the proximity to decorated trees).

Outside of town hall, Tortimer was enjoying the event…maybe a little too much. 😛

I told him that Octavian’s house was my favorite, and he said he would let Octavian know of my choice. But I saw Octavian in the background, so I went to speak him immediately. Somehow, he had already heard the news. He thanked me and said he owes me a root beer.

I found a note in a bottle on the beach, but it was just an advertisement for Lyle’s insurance. I would’ve thrown it back into the sea if I could have. 😛

If you haven’t seen the lights of Bright Nights yet, you have through the weekend. Enjoy the sights! The snow will be gone in a few weeks too!

Yesterday, I shot down Gulliver’s UFO. When the camera cut to the crash site, I saw Octavian there! Did the UFO almost land on him, like it did to Eloise in November? Or did Octavian get off the UFO? He does have a space-themed house and he looks a bit like an alien! Maybe Gulliver was just his Uber ride home after a shopping trip in another galaxy. 😛

I rushed over to the crash site, and Octavian wouldn’t discuss the elephant in the room. He made no mention of the crashed UFO right next to him, as if he didn’t see it or know anything about it. 😉

Anyway, I gathered up the missing UFO parts and Gulliver gave me another Moai statue for recovering them all. By the way, this was my 33rd UFO shot down…which equals the number I’ve shot down in City Folk! They’re much easier in Wild World though, which is how I’ve caught up despite playing Wild World half as long.

Today was Groundhog Day in North America, and it’s only mentioned via a letter from Mom.

When I spoke with Drift, he reminded me that the Bright Nights festival is coming up next week.

But he gave me some odd advice: He told me to train for it with ice cubes in my shorts! I don’t think so! 🧊

But I’m not the only one that thinks Drift is a bit strange. Caroline asked me to deliver a letter to Drift, and he showed me the letter (in which Caroline called him strange):

But after reading that, I’m starting to think Caroline is a bit strange as well. 😛 When I returned to her, she rewarded me with a citrus wall for making the delivery.

Have a good weekend, everyone! See you next time!

It was snowing on Wednesday, and Drift said he was feeling cold…but he didn’t know why. 😆

He said he felt like a twig-face just jumped over him and threw down a 360 jam?

I’m guessing he’s talking about basketball? 😛

Eloise and Caroline had an argument, and I made the mistake of talking to Caroline afterwards. She was telling me about her mom’s angry streak…

And then Caroline said she just broke ten plates herself! She warned me to back off, even though I had nothing to do with her argument!

Saharah was in town, and she needed help making her deliveries. So I delivered a rug for Phyllis (to Pelly) and a carpet to Blathers. Saharah thanked me with a concrete floor.

Today, Dotty reminded me that Yay Day is coming up soon. But she suggested it might be hard to come up with something nice to say about me that’s believable. Wow, thanks Dotty. 😛

And then, she had the nerve to tell me to shower her with compliments. 😛

I was overdue to change my shirt, so I purchased a four-ball tee at Able Sisters. So I’m no longer wearing that awful groovy shirt from Gracie. 😆
