In a Can

On Wednesday night, I wished on a shooting star. Yesterday, I received a letter from Wishy, telling me that he has granted my wish. The attached item was a skeleton. 💀

Bones asked me for a new catchphrase to replace “nutty,” so I told him to say “in a can” instead. He then told me that he doesn’t like green peppers in a can. 😉

Bones: I love green peppers not... in a can.

Wendell was in town, and I wanted to get another piece of the Nazca Lines pattern. But unfortunately, the three fish I need for those are out of season right now.

So I just caught a random fish (a bitterling) and gave that to Wendell. I had to choose a spot for it, and I chose to replace the “road 1 pattern.” I don’t plan on using the road paths anyway. But I was a bit surprised when Wendell gave me…a road 1 pattern! I replaced it with itself. 😛

Wendell: Oh, so very happy! Suh-soo very gratified! Road 1 pattern!

Tonight, Bob and Mitzi had a cat fight, and they were both walking around depressed. I hate seeing some of my favorite cats feeling so down. 🙁

Bob: Sight... It's so depressing, I really don't want to talk about it tonight.

Goose gave me a racer shirt, and I decided to put it on. But I’m still wearing my pirate hat and hockey mask too, so I probably look a bit confused. 😛

I recently uploaded my latest Wild World video, episode #51. Please check it out!

Bed Sale

Yesterday, Saharah was in town…and I was determined not to neglect her this time around like I did last time. 😛 So I started out by delivering some wallpaper to Mabel. But while I was in Able Sisters, I saw that they were selling a pirate’s hat and a hockey mask. I know it’s not Halloween or anything, but I decided to buy them both anyway. 😆

Mabel: Wow! You are looking really good! I mean it!

I also stopped at Beddington’s…I mean Nookington’s. They had three beds on sale today: a basic yellow bed, a basic blue bed, and a cabin bed!

When I returned to Saharah, she asked me to deliver some wallpaper to Pelly, and then some carpeting to Tom Nook. Once I was done, Saharah offered me a blue tarp or a daisy meadow.

Saharah: Do you want a blue tarp or a daisy meadow?

Since I’ve already got the daisy meadow from her before, I chose the blue tarp this time.

I ran into Goose outside, and he was criticizing the falling snow, saying it was lazy…and disgusting.

Goose: Snow is so lazy! It's disgusting! Look at it, loafin' around like that!

But then he really got offensive, by saying that the lazy snow reminds him of me! 😮

Goose: Kinda reminds me of you, nutty!

Don’t mess with me when I’m wearing this mask, Mr. Chicken. I may slice you up and serve you for dinner!

When I ran into Wolfgang, he was bragging about how stinky he was today! He said it was because he’s been eating liver and onions.

Wolfgang: Whaaa?! But I've been snacking on liver and onions all day, nutty!

Butch is still sick this week, so I gave him some more medicine yesterday, and then again today. Get well soon, doggo!

The year is almost over, and I posted a video taking a look at my 2022 in all five main Animal Crossing games. Please give it a watch if you’re so inclined:

Have a safe and happy new year, everyone! 🥂

Respectful of Otters

Wendell was in town yesterday, so I caught a fish to give him. It was a pond smelt, and he appreciated it. He rewarded me with a pattern called “Overhead view C.” That’s an odd name, and this is what it looks like:

The overhead view C pattern from Wendell.

It’s one part of a four-part design, which seems to be of the Nazca Lines hummingbird in Peru. This might be a cool one to collect all four pieces of (like I once collected the crop circle designs in City Folk).

Pascal was in town today, and he told me to always be respectful of otters. Not “others,” but otters. 😆

Pascal: Always be respectful of otters, maaannn.

Too bad I’m seeing this one just a bit too late to include it in my recent video of Pascal quotes. 😛 But Pascal gave me a keg before he jumped into the ocean, and I put the keg in storage for now.

Bob was talking about leaving footprints on the beach…

Bob: If you run across the sand twice before a wave hits the shore,

And he said that if you leave two sets of footprints, it’s proof that you’ve met your true love?

Bob: it's like you've met your true love! And the two sets of prints prove it!

That makes no sense at all to me, but Bob thought it was romantic. 😆

Butch is the latest villager to come down with a cold, so I gave him some medicine yesterday and again today.

Butch: Phew ... I'm not quite so delirious now, nutty. Thank ya, sunshine!

Other than Bones, my newer villagers haven’t been giving me their photos lately. It’s probably because they all want to have fish-catching competitions, and I decline those requests at least 90% of the time. I’ll make deliveries, but I really hate these fish competitions. 😛

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! I’ll be back with another entry next week. 🎄
