Animal Crossing: Wild World

I sold 103,000b of fruit.
I got Egbert some medicine.
And best of all… Dr Shrunk taught me love. Hooray!

Been away for the weekend. Played a small amount of Animal Crossing, but that was it.
I’m now within 20,000 bells of paying off my current mortgage, but I can’t be bothered to fish for ages, so I’ll pay it off next time some fruit grows.
Oddly, there were no dig spots today.

So, today was a big day in Venture.
I’d left all the trees alone for a few days so I could tell which were fruit trees and which weren’t. Today I went round and every non-foreign-fruit or cedar tree got chopped down. Well, every one on the east side of the river. I’m keeping the small amount of land on the west side for natural trees. Then every stump got dug up and replaced with a foreign fruit. Saplings everywhere! Then I went round and picked all the foreign fruit I had still sat on trees and made about 100,000 bells.
Took about two and a half hours in the end, but if I’m willing to pick everything I should be able to make a fair bit of money without playing the stalk market.

And finally this evening p’anther from Teacozy came round to play and we had some tea and then went downstairs and listened to music.
Best.

I got stung by bees four times.
I didn’t catch a tuna.
Bah.
On the plus side, though, I did shoot down a couple more presents. The golden slingshot can’t be far away now.

Well, I didn’t bother with turnips this week. I’m about more than making money, man.
At the moment I’m mostly about fruit trees. I’m going to wait a few days without picking any fruit so I can see which trees on the east side are fruit trees and which ones… aren’t. I’ll then cut the non-fruit ones down and replace them with nice pear, orange and peach trees. I’m thinking long term here, you see.
Anyway, today was Yay Day. In which the animals all said nice things to me – even Curt! – and I had to say nice things back. “Nice ears”, “cool trunk”, “shiny beak”, “nice arse”, that sort of thing. (Deena’s now proudly striding round Venture proclaiming that “nice arse” is her middle name.) The only animal not taking part was Frobert, who had the sickness and needed his medicine again. There’s something very wrong with that frog.
I’ve persuaded Curt to stay, which pleases me. Every town needs at least one grumpy resident. Nobody seems to be packed today, which is nice. I like getting new villagers, but I’m pretty happy with my neighbours right now.
Also completely rearranged my ground floor room… but I’m still not happy with it at all. Hmpf. Maybe I need to go for a whole new vibe, ditch the gaming/entertainment thing.

I play this every day. A lot.
I just don’t write about it because, well, it’s Animal Crossing. I pick my fruit, say hello to everyone, go to Teacozy to see p’anther and her friends, invite p’anther back to Venture for tea.
It’s not very exciting. But it’s very,,,, comfy.

Well, Nook was buying turnips for 122b just now so I took the safe option and sold up. I could have held on for a bigger profit, but I didn’t think it was worth the stress.
Lily from Smyrna has moved today now that Robin has finally left. She says “lmnop” at the end of each sentence, which is… different.
Planted a few more fruit trees, this time in old apple spots. I think I’m going to make the east side of the river an apple-free zone, but I’ll check there is at least one apple tree on the west side beforehand. I don’t want my local fruit to become extinct.

Made loads of money today. Spent twenty minutes picking, carrying and selling foreign fruit. Did a load of fishing, including a stringfish capture. Got some duplicate fossils and sold them.
Productive day.
I’m still much less than half-way to paying off my current mortgage though.
