I have a new best friend!


crappy camera phone picture is crappy


His name is Benjamin (not Ben, though). I saved him from the evil, murderous Missouri drivers would wanted to kill him. >:(

He's outside, boldly wandering off into the horizon. Farewell, Benjamin! :waves:

I love turtles.

Awww!! It's nice to see a Missouri turtle rescued now and again. :)

Of course, the last one I tried to save snapped at me. Ungrateful little bastard.

You gotta grab them from above and hold onto the left and right sides of their shells. They're scared, ya know.

Yay, Benjamin!

I used to wander the country roads in the evenings after a summer rain, rescuing the turtles who seemed to love playing in the streets at those times. I always hated to see one mashed in the road. =/

...did you name him after Yahtzee?

omg, not intentionally. I just thought Franklin was too cliche. No, Benjamin is a gentle creature, unlike Mr. Croshaw.

So hard...can't choose...Kid at Zoo or Turtle Toss?



(Kid at zoo wins, only because I couldn't find a clip of the turtle toss. Alas.)

Awww. I miss my pet turtle. I might have accidentally left the heat lamp on before my 12hour shift. RIP Spike.
