I love this game.
I love it because it’s online.
And I love it because Monique is packed up and ready to go.

Hooray! I have a whole new floor to play with. At the moment it’s a kitchen and dining area, which leaves downstairs looking rather empty.
Nook’s not open yet, so I can’t see how much my new mortgage is. I mean, I could look it up easily enough, but I don’t want to know.

Oh! The guilt! The horrible, terrible, soul-tearing guilt!
I’ve just paid off my 298,000b mortgage, but it came at a cost, a terrible cost.
The cost of a stringfish and a tuna, in fact, both of which the museum needs. I caught one of each today and instead of taking them to Blathers I sold them to Nook. I’m terrible, greedy pig.
My soul is lost.

A couple of hours today, which is far longer than I’d normally play. I wanted to pay off my current mortgage, but didn’t manage it. I’m still 50,000b short.
However, I did catch my first insect today – a pill bug. In fact, i caught two – one for the museum and one for Big Top.
And I shot down my first present. In fact, I shot down three – a cabin wardrobe, a billiard table and a kitchen sink.
Wow.

And no turnips this morning.
I ran all round town, but couldn’t find Joan anywhere.
Still played for an hour, though. Fruit picking, letter writing, chatting, fossil digging, all that.

Tortimer gave me some party poppers.
Woo. Great.
New animal’s moved into town. He’s an aging, grey-haired bear called Curt. Name and nature, like.
Fishing’s rubbish today. No hint of anything good.
And I got a terrible new haircut that makes me look like a old Etonian fop.

Well, deKay set up a ‘skate crew’ today, so I’ve sent in a request to join.
As my stats were utterly humiliating I decided to play it for a while to improve my scores. Now they’re only very humilating.
Result!

Seems Apollo from Cheese has moved into Teacozy. I’ve introduced myself, but haven’t really talked to him yet.
Kody’s left Venture now, but nobody’s moved in to replace him yet.
Joe and Dusty came to visit today, as well as p’anther, so we had a full four-person town and the game didn’t crash. Incredible.

So, I was excited this morning because Nook’s has been upgraded and now has a hair salon. I got a nice everyday cut. Nothing to fancy or difficult to manage.
Then I bought all of Nook’s flowers and planted them around town.
And I can’t wait to visit Teacozy today because I’ve got two spare apato fossils and I know Wolfgang is collecting them.
So, I’d like to know, WHAT IS THIS GAME DOING TO ME?!?
