» And then my new roommates...

I got them yesterday. Two Ornate box turtles. You can take a look at them here, and you'll agree that they are the cutest things you ever seen. I haven't decided on their names yet, but I've been thinking about: Harold and Maude . I'm compeled to mention, (and edit this post...) that they perish by the thousands every year, that by no means I support the trading of Ornate turtles. When we got at the pet store, they were piled on each other, some even had their bodies covered in fezes, which brought insects to crawl in their skin and shell. I hope they make it here in my house. Certainly is better than the Pet Store. But my house is definitely not the wild.
