Turtle-sitting

Topic: me news
Guess what? Guess what?! My friend Anna got a pet Russian tortoise at the beginning of the summer. And she let me babysit it for 2 whole weeks! The tortoise is a boy, and when we take him out for walks he's so fast my Dad calls him Speedy. I wanted to get a pet tortoise of my own later, but I wouldn't want to walk him and my parents wouldn't have time, so I decided on a frog/toad or a snake. But my mom doesn't like snakes and you have to feed a frog/toad crickets. Ew. SO maybe I'll just get a chihuahua. It doesn't need to hang out outside much (unlike a German Shepherd, for instance), so it won't bring in fleas or ticks. And it doesn't stare at the window all day like a cat does. 'Course it does chew up shoes sometimes...
