I found a note in a bottle on the beach today, and it was a receipt from a store called Nak’s Krunny! Sounds like a cheap imitation of Nook’s Cranny.

Victoria told me she filled up her watering can too full, and the weight of it made her back hurt. She said she’s going to need a backrub when she gets up in the morning! Maybe she needs some Vic’s VapoRub. 😛

Dr. Shrunk was in town today, but I did not speak to him. I don’t use emotions in this game, so there’s no point really.

Antonio asked me to deliver a letter to Mathilda, and I agreed to help out. Mathilda wasn’t very far from Antonio’s house, so it was an easy delivery.

I handed her the letter and returned to Antonio. He gave me a cabana flooring for helping out. He also told me that it’s getting dark up his nose. 😂

Kabuki was all packed and ready to move out of town, and this time, I’m letting him go. I like him, but Forest desperately needs some fresh blood. He did live in town for a year and a half (since April 2019), so he had a nice run. So long, Kabuki! I’m sure I’ll see you again in another game.

As I started up the game tonight, I made a decision. If anyone other than Goldie, Big Top, or Margie were packed up to move away, I would let them go.

Pascal was in town today, and he told me that when you live in the ocean, the surf’s always up.

He gave me a ship cannon before he jumped into the ocean. For a moment, I thought it would be cool to put it outside of a villager’s house. And then I remembered I can’t do that. 😛 I guess I’ve been playing too much New Horizons. 😉

Outside of town hall, I cleaned up all the rotten acorns I left there last week from the Acorn Festival.

As I completed my initial walk around town, I spoke with Goldie and she told me she wasn’t having any luck finding fossils today. I thought that was odd, because I didn’t find a single fossil either!

But I did find two fossils a few minutes later, right next to each other, in fact. 😛

I gathered and sold some fruit, and when I was done, I had enough (along with money in my account) to make another million bell donation to Boondox! Pelly told me that Boondox has now changed its name to Boondopolis!

If I’m not mistaken, I just need to donate one million more bells and I’ll be done with Boondox/Boondopolis forever. Of course, that will still take me a few months, but it’s good to know I’m on the home stretch.

No one was packed up to move out tonight. But I’ll likely use the same criteria next week (anyone but Goldie, Big Top, or Margie can go).

The annual week-long Acorn Festival is now underway. Many trees around town will have acorns underneath them.

Our job is to gather them up, separate the rotten ones, and give the rest to the “mysterious” Cornimer…who is totally not Tortimer in disguise. 😉 Because that would just be corny.

In return, he gives out mush furniture when the number of acorns you’ve given him reaches certain thresholds. He also can use acorns to predict your future. Here’s a look at the fortune he gave me:

In other news, Benedict was packed up and ready to move out of town. I considered letting him go. I really did! But I checked and saw it’s only been two weeks since he gave me his photo, and that seemed too soon. But I’m going to let someone go one of these weeks, seriously. 😛

In all, I gave Cornimer 102 acorns and he gave me seven pieces of furniture: The mush stool, mush end table, mush lamp, mush chair, mush dresser, mush closet, and mush stand.

I sold all seven pieces, but Tom Nook only paid 15,600 bells for them all. That was a lot of work for just 15k! Not to mention, I have a mess of rotten acorns on the ground near town hall that I have to clean up.

Both of the elephants in town (Big Top and Margie) asked me for new catchphrases tonight. Big Top even asked twice! But I told them both to keep using the phrases they already had.
