Bunnie vs. Mathilda

Bunnie asked me to make a delivery for her tonight, so I took a blossom shirt over to Mathilda. But Mathilda outright hated it!

Mathilda: A blossom shirt, for crying out loud! This is totally ridiculous!

When I told Bunnie the news, she said that Mathilda is nuts. The two of them were just getting along so well on Bunnie’s birthday, so I wonder what happened!

Bunnie: That Mathilda is nuts...

But she did give me a cityscape wall for making the delivery.

When I visited Big Top, he wanted to have a competition to see who could catch a crawfish first.

Big Top: I'll show you just how much I love the crawfish!

Goldie pinged me and gave me a gift that she thought she could picture me having: a flame shirt.

Goldie: I thought you'd like having a flame shirt around the house.

I think there was a good reason that she could picture me with one: Because I was already wearing one! 😛

Since it’s Saturday night, I went down to the Roost to enjoy some live music. K.K. Slider performed K.K. Ragtime for me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Ragtime!

After the show, I checked out the ponds for a crawfish. It didn’t take me long to find one, so I took it back to Big Top. He happily took it from me, and he gave me a tartan rug in return.

Enjoy your weekend, everyone! Never Stop Crossing! 🙂

Bunnie’s Birthday

Today is Mother’s Day, and I received a letter from Mom in the mail. Basically, she wanted to know why she was writing me instead of me writing to her! 😛

Dear Jeff, It's Mother's Day, so why am I writing you? You should be writing ME! Write! -Mom

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! 🙂

I found a note in a bottle on the beach, from a big brother to a little brother. He says that Mom worries about them both, so they should go home for a visit. It almost sounds like it could be a Mother’s Day-related note, but I’m not sure if it is or not.

To my little brother, I'm going home later this month and you should come, too. Mom worries! -Your big brother

Today was also Bunnie’s birthday, so I hopped on over to her party. I gave her a modern chair that I bought at Nookington’s. She really seemed to enjoy it, and she gave me a cabana screen.

Bunnie: I wouldn't sell our friendship for a bazillion bells, J-puff!

Mathilda was also at the party, which is getting to be a common sight. She was also at Margie’s party (this year and last year) and also Victoria’s party last year. Maybe she’s Forest’s party planner. 😛

There was one aspect of birthdays that Bunnie didn’t care for, though: She’s afraid that she won’t be cute when she grows up. Aww, poor Bunnie, don’t worry. You’ll still be cute!

Bunnie: Growing up is fun. But I wanna be gut-wrenchingly cute forever!

Goldie wanted to move out of town for some reason, but I was able to talk her out of it (after several tries).

Antonio wanted to have a competition to see who could catch a common butterfly first, and I agreed to the challenge. I just didn’t know how hard it would actually be! Perhaps because of how few flowers I currently have in town, I had trouble finding butterflies. And when I did see one, it was a yellow butterfly or a tiger butterfly, not the white “common” one.

So it took me more than 20 minutes, but I did eventually catch the common butterfly. I returned to Antonio, and thankfully, he didn’t catch one yet…so I won. He gave me an exquisite rug as my prize.

Antonio: What?! You caught one already? That's insane!

I posted my latest Wild World video episode today. It features highlights of things that happened in Forest from the end of December through early April. I hope you enjoy it!

The Latest Gossip

Last night, I started up the game and left it sitting briefly. I was checking something before I picked up the controller. But the game quickly captured my attention when I heard a UFO flying overhead! I grabbed the controller and chased it down, but it was too late to get my slingshot out. One of these years, I’ll shoot it down again. 😛

Gulliver's UFO flies overhead in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

You know what’s weird, though? I get occasional UFO sightings, but I can’t even remember the last time I saw a balloon present in this game! In fact, it’s been almost three years since I’ve mentioned a balloon present in the blog! And if I shot one down, I almost surely would have mentioned it.

I played again today, and Big Top was talking about how Benedict and Antonio are such close friends. He said that they were wearing matching wallet-print outfits yesterday. But that wasn’t true at all! I even checked my recorded footage from yesterday, and they were wearing completely different outfits. 😛

Big Top: They were wearing matching wallet-print outfits yesterday!

He said it was lame of them. It sounds like Big Top is just jealous of their friendship.

Big Top: It was sooooooo, well, lame, actually!

Katrina was in town, so I entered her tent to get my fortune told. She dealt the “midnight” card and then started talking about a fox with a knack for art. I started seeing Redd when I realized I paid 100 bells for this nonsense. 😉 As far as I could tell, her fortune didn’t mean a thing. She’s a con artist just like Crazy Redd. 😛

Katrina: A fox with a knack for art paints images on a piece of litmus paper...

Today’s gossip came from Bunnie. She said that Big Top called Margie by his ex’s name, and they’ve been fighting ever since.

Bunnie: So the whole fight started when Big Top called Margie...

Bunnie: his ex's name by accident, tootie!!!

My next Wild World video episode will be up in the next few days, so keep an eye out for it!
