Bye, Filly-sha

Get it? Because she’s a horse? I'm really funny, guys. Anyway, I guess sometimes dreams really do come true. Victoria is gone, ladies and gentlemen! And all it took was a good old-fashioned silent treatment and one time where I pushed her until she got really pissed. Nibbles, a cute teal squirrel, has moved into town to take her place.



The only downside is that the flea market is tomorrow, and Victoria had a lovely loveseat in her house I wanted to buy. It’s from Group A, which I’m pretty certain is the rarest item group in my town. So...bad timing. BUT-in a twist of fate, I did slingshot down a lovely bed! I couldn’t believe it. Here is a fairly recent house update (it still looks like sh*t, though):


I want to give my goldfish (see bottom left) a name and make a fun little area for him. I’m thinking “Orangey”, a tribute to Trailer Park Boys.


Speaking of, I paid off my second loan with pockets full of pricey fish and bugs! I wish someone had told me that was the key to making bells when I was a kid. I'm pretty sure back then I made most of my money selling fossils (without even donating any because I was a reprobate). No wonder I never got past the first house upgrade when I played then. Unforgivable. 


Also, my dear friend Reid came to visit Amori and I visited his town, Karamja. Here is a sweet photo of him enjoying the warm welcome I prepared for him, in a special “Here’s Johnny” kind of way. Obviously, we shopped in each others’ stores so that we could unlock Nookington’s. Tom Nook told me they’ll be closed for renovations tomorrow, YAY! Thank you, Reid. :)



Finally, things are going well with my new man, Frobert. He was sick for a few days this week, and I, like the amazing girlfriend I am, delivered medicine to his house. In return, he made sure to remind me to keep up with my workout routine. I will say, though, right now he won’t talk about anything else except getting a misty shirt. Which, I have to admit, would look great with his skin tone. But can we talk about anything else, dude…?


Well, as aforementioned, the flea market is tomorrow. So I guess it’s time to fill my house with ugly crap that I need to get rid of. 


XOXO,

Chilly


P.S. Lily FINALLY let me in her house, and I may have figured out what’s going on with her. Spotted these two bottles on her counter (Jim Beam and Blue Curucao). I think that, unfortunately, her drinking has led to her decline. Let’s keep her in our thoughts and prayers.

    I would've never thought that Lily had the "It's 5PM somewhere" mindset. Thoughts and prayers 🙏💪

Guess who’s back…back again…

Well, it's been 20 years since I first took a ride in this taxi!  Let me tell you something: you could not have convinced 10-year-old me that this guy is supposed to be a turtle. I genuinely thought, without a trace of doubt, that he was a green parrot. I mean, come on. The whole pirate thing he has going on? The yellow mouth (that I thought was a beak)? I was SHOCKED when I learned the truth years later. Keep in mind, this was the first game in the series I played, so this was the first version of Kapp'n I met. I think it was the hat covering up his kappa bald spot. And I was too dumb to question why none of the other birds in the game looked like him.  Anyway, after resetting my game a few times to get a good map, I landed on this one. I named the town Amori, which I thought sounded cute. Sounds like  amore,  Italian for “love”; additionally,  mori  means “forest” in Japanese (a little tribute to the original AC game). I really like the placement of my ho...

New poisonous love interest?

It turns out Elvis is not such a king after all. After our first date, he sent me a letter with a present attached, as is the formality. It was an ECONO-CHAIR. Really, dude? You have the money for two  thrones. That's 1.6 million bells. And you send me economy furniture? What a f*ckboy.  And I think he's into some shady business, anyway, judging by this letter he showed me. What does he know...? Anyway, I paid off my loan and got a house upgrade! It doesn't really make a huge difference, space-wise, if we're being honest. But Bree gave me a blue bureau which definitely helped. Still, you gotta love how ugly and disjointed your home decor looks in the early game, when you barely have anything. The mismatched colors? The two froggy chairs (both found in the recycling bin)? The sea bass that I can't get rid of because the store is closed? The giant pantheon column just chilling in the front? Perfection. We also got two new villagers, who both shockingly decided to buil...

Lily has lost her damn mind

Image
You know what was really lost on me as a child playing this game? The humor behind Lyle and the whole insurance gag. Back then, I just thought he was an annoying and useless character. Which was/is true. But as a grown adult who lives in the real world and overpays for insurance (which hardly covers anything), it really makes me smile every time I get stung and receive those letters with 100 bells. The fact that it’s only a fourth of the cost of medicine, sent in an untimely fashion, really shows you that Animal Crossing: Wild World was made with the people in mind. For Lyle’s sake, I hope he doesn’t wander over to Luigi’s Mansion. (...bad joke?) Anyway, I wanted to make a unique town flag, so I tried to replicate the cover art of one of my favorite albums, “Miracle Mile” by STRFKR. But it looked like complete ass, so I scrapped it.                         Instead I copied this design from the internet and was shocked that it c...
