Last Wednesday (September 3rd), Belle started complimenting my eyes. First, she said they were pretty…but then she changed it to “intense.”

She said I had the eyes of a wrestler, and said they’re not the eyes of someone who does a lot of thinking! Wow, I think that’s rude.

That made me wrestle with the idea of tipping her over, but then she’d be crying over spilled milk. (Just kidding. Be nice to cows.) 😛
Early September is the best time of year for ocean fishing, since there are no sea bass (or jellyfish) in sight. Last year, I waited for a rainy day and then fished for two hours to make a million bells in one night. I didn’t want to do that this time, though. Instead, I played (and fished) a little bit each day. I’ll recap how it all went later in the entry.
Last Thursday, Static informed me that I was looking as awful as ever. (My villagers all seem to love me so much.) He gave me a misty shirt to wear instead, and I decided to put it on.
I found Gulliver down on the beach, and he gave me a gift and said I wouldn’t find anything like it anywhere.

But it was a matryoshka, so I did find something like it…right inside the first one! 😉
As I was speaking with Kody near the wishing well, Tom came up and his face passed right through Kody’s umbrella. 😛

On Sunday (September 7th), I received a goodbye letter in the mail from Mitzi. I’m sad to see her go, but I’m used to this happening. The revolving door of Animal Crossing on GameCube goes round and round.

I found a note on the message board about a buried treasure in Acre D-1. Even though I didn’t specifically seek it out, I didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary when I passed through there. More on this later, though.

Tom said that Genji told him about money trees. He asked if I knew about them, and I said yes. So he wanted me to tell him about them, but all of the options were variations of “no.” I said “that’s my secret,” and he started crying!

I’m not sure what the big deal was, because he supposedly knew about them from Genji! 🤷♂️
Anyway, I’ve continued fishing most days lately, and the dump has been filling up with the junk I’ve caught from the ocean. Here’s how the dump looked Sunday (before the Monday pick-up).

Over by the wishing well today, Ursala said she found my blue bench for me. But she then took half the money in my pockets as her reward! That was over 17,000 bells!!

I didn’t have any pitfalls with me, so I started pushing her around and I hit her with a net. Villagers shouldn’t be allowed to just reach in and take our money. 😡

Mitzi’s replacement moved in today, and it’s Hazel the squirrel! She’s cute! 😊

While walking around the museum, I fell into a pitfall behind the museum that was completely out of sight! I checked my map, and it was in Acre D-1. This is the “buried treasure” that Puck left for me! Thanks a lot, old friend.
After some more fishing tonight, I noticed my savings balance was just 85k from a big milestone. So I went back out to fill up my pockets a couple more times. When I was done, my balance reached 25 million bells!

That meant I earned over 1.2 million bells just in the past week or so. I’d call that a productive September fishing season!
See you all next time. Never Stop Crossing!
