It’s slightly disturbing the way that Cornimer shouts “Acornio!” at you when he tells your fortune. I keep reading it as “Acornholio”, which is probably even worse. So I collected a big stash of acorns, which gained me a few more items of Mush furniture. My animals were still on about acorns, and didn’t want to give me any jobs to do or anything, so they’re a bit boring at the moment. Kabuki didn’t move out, but now Sally is …
Acorn Festival! Hurrah! “Cornimer” (who looks suspiciously like Tortimer in an acorn mask) was about, and asking for acorns to be give to him. I collected up loads, but didn’t realise you could tell which ones were rotten – and you’re not supposed to pass them on. Anyway, I collected 37, which got me two lots of Mush furniture. My conversations with animals today were mostly acorn-based, and so pretty dull. No Crazy Redd today, probably due to the acorn …
My notice board says that the Acorn Festival starts tomorrow. ACES! My animals were not especially chatty today, although the not-moved-out Kabuki did want a shirt so I gave her (or him) a Blue Grid one I found on the floor. Found a fossil for the first time in a couple of weeks, not that I need it as I have them all, but still. I haven’t seen a pitfall in ages either. Perhaps the ten billion weeds have covered …
Today’s animal-wot-is-trying-to-leave is Kabuki. Again. He-she seems much more resolved to go this time, however, leaving no suggestion of staying even after multiple attempts at persuading him/her otherwise. It was also a flea market day today. I went round a few animals’ houses, but with Kabuki all packed to go and most of my other animals outside (and Bluebear refusing to sell me anything) all I picked up was a bed, which I suspect I already have in my catalogue. …
Another somewhat lax day in Cheese. Did my usual stuff of buying things I didn’t already have, and chatted briefly with my animals, as well as a load of weeding (which seems pointless now as it comes back with a vengance each day). Also gave three of my animals some clothes. Do I look like a walking branch of Oxfam or something?
Well, Purrl didn’t move out, so perhaps my animals do like me. Having said that, they’re not all that interested in talking to me today. Redd was about, and I bought a merry-go-round from him for the alarmingly cheap price of 1,800 bells (or so). Maybe he was ill, or something. And weeds! What’s with them? Billions of them again today.
Don’t my animals like me any more? I mean, I know I hate most of them and would gladly push some of them under a bus, but they have no reason to hate me, surely? Purrl was trying to escape Cheese today, you see, and I’ve lost a fair few animals over the last couple of weeks already. Rubbish. Something exciting did happen today, though – Autumn came! And with it, slightly browner ground, and billions of weeds. Why doesn’t …
Phew! Turnip price today was 110 bells, which although crap did give me a slight profit. Sold up, and went chatting to animals. Gladys wants a moth, Rowan wants a salmon, Kabuki wants a club shirt, and a couple of other animals want chic furniture. I didn’t give anyone anything. K.K. Slider played me another song – Comrade K.K. In fact, he played me something else first as I pressed the wrong button and chose a request, which of course …
Bah. Friday is TURNIP PANIC DAY, and Nook stabs me in the pocket with a rubbish offering of 94 bells each. I paid 96. I’ll hope for a 100+ price tomorrow, which from past experience isn’t really very likely. Rubbish. Caught a million different bugs and some fish today too. Also, I have a new animal – Rowan the tiger. He’s grrrreat! Aha. Ahahahaha.
So much for Buck then. He’s actually properly bucked off now. Stupid horse. Also stupid was Nook, who offered just 44 bells for my turnips. Racoon burgers it is then. Not a lot else going to today. Most of my animals seem to be hiding for some reason.
52 bells today. Not that I’m surprised. Nook will be when he finds out where I’ve hidden bits of Timmy and Tommy. Buck is still MIA. I couldn’t find him anywhere. Perhaps Redd has taken him to sell? Redd was about today, but he didn’t have anything worth buying.
Just a brief play today. I have a new resident – Gladys the bird thing. She didn’t have a lot to say as she was unpacking. Buck seems to have vanished. His house is still there, but he’s not in it or anywhere else in the town. Aliens, probably. Either that or Nook has sold him for glue. It wouldn’t surprise me. I was only offered 55 bells today for my turnips too. He’s evil, is that racoon.
Turnippage! Spent around half a million bells on turnips, at 90 bells each. Once again, I’ve left them all round Cheese, mainly outside my house and on the path near Nook’s. Many of my animals were in bed, so I couldn’t talk to them, but those who were not were complimented by me as it is Yay Day today. Compliments consisted of “j00 r0XX0r!”, “Burgermoo!” and “I wish you dead” amongst other things.
Just a quick extra go this evening, in order to go and visit K.K. Slider and listen to him “do his thang”. Or something. His track today was K.K. Metal, which wasn’t fantastic, but a million times better than K.K. Dirge, at lest.
Oh noes! I didn’t play yesterday, so missed out on possible turnip sellage! I could have set the clock back, but I forgot to do so. Luckily, then, Nook was giving a decent price this morning – 192 bells. That’s enough to double my money this week, so I put half in the post office and left the rest in my pockets for buying more turnips tomorrow. As for other things going on in Cheese, Chief has moved out (already), …
