It turns out the turtle I was assigned to - Discovery - died this spring. So a family member asked me if I'm going to contact someone about being assigned a different turtle.
"No. She's with the Lake Monster now. She needs to be remembered. And I'm the right person to adopt a ghost turtle."
Everyone ignores the fact that I'm slowly developing a Lake Monster cult and agrees this is peak Fizzy.
@weirdfizz i'm not ignoring it. eyes on you fizzy.
meanwhile, I adore ghost turtle and applaud your willingness to adopt. so many people are hung up on the "alive" aspect.
@weirdfizz Hey I'm down for a water saving cult. much better than some of the others floating around.
