He/She may not look like it (it kind of reminds me of the angry cat), but he/she should be a lot happier that it was about 30 minute ago. Jody and I were sitting at the table having dinner, and I saw this guy/gal in the pool. He/she was not that hard to scoop up with the skimmer, but I have to admit it was kind of withdrawn. Shrinkage comes to mind, but that is an entirely different episode. Scooped it out, got the phone (for documentation). I set him/her down on one of the walkways, pointed AWAY from the pool, and went back in to continue my dinner. Two or three minutes later, I reconsidered where I had put it, went back out to relocate it to a friendlier turtle habitat, and it was GONE. That sucker (biter) was definitely making some tracks! But, at least he will not drown.I am going through convention withdrawal. Two weeks of political conventions, and now I have a lot of free time on my hands, I am not too sure how I will fill that void. A nap, maybe.
Jody and I both got our new passports in the mail today. I mailed the applications and the old passports (plus my passport card) on the 18th, and they have already been returned. I have to tell you, that was a lot more efficient process than I was expecting. It does, however, answer the questions as to whether or not I completed the forms properly. The instructions (part of them anyway) are less than clear, but receiving the passports makes me believe I passed that test.
Deeds, Actions, Changes TURTLES, Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
