Wacky Canada (Animal Crossing)
Jan. 18th, 2006 01:59 pmCanada (named after my first AC town on the Gamecube version) is a wacky place, but some days are more crazy than others.
Today I walked up to one of my residents, a cat holding a bug-catching net. She asked me if I liked to catch bugs. Since I've been a slacker thus far and haven't even attempted to catch any, I answered that I did not. So Miss Bug-Catching Net Holding Kitty told me that she did not like catching bugs either, that she had no idea why she was holding a net, and sometimes she even forgot where she was or what her name is. She concluded by saying:
"This, too, is my ex's fault."
o.O
Every resident but one is female, and all of those females except one are the "ditzy" type. Oh joy. The one male I have is the hated Camofrog. I ignore him every time he "!!!"s at me and I push him around, hit him with my shovel, and plant pitfalls around his front door, but he still won't move out. Grrr.
I finally had a coconut wash up today, my first non-native fruit. My mother has only written me once so far, and she sent me nothing. Stupid woman...
I've gotten all store upgrades except the last one, which I can't get without someone from another town visiting and shopping. And I have no online access. Grrrrrrr.
My opinion hasn't changed much about the game: Pretty boring. Mostly I use it to kill time now and then. Over the last couple days I was working on a project (replacing all non-fruit non-pine trees with orange trees), but now I'm done with that. I like this whole cross-breeding flowers idea, but that's a long-term project.
My favorite activity is running around town and watering flowers with my pretty little watering can. I'm really not sure what that says about me. And I probably don't want to know. :P

The villagere I hate the most is Monique. She is snotty and always insults my clothes. She moved into my Gamecube town, and she never moved out! A couple weeks ago she moved into my DS town, but thankfully she moved out yesterday. Of course she sends me a snotty goodbye letter which said something like, "I hope you have a better outfit the next time I see you."

There is one solution. A lot of McDonald have free wifi, so you could set up a time to go to McDonalds and have someone ready to visit your town.
That's what I'm going to have to do. There's a cafe near work that has/is a Hotspot, so I might camp out there one lunchtime and see if someone can come visit at that time.
Thanks for the idea! :)
