I'm in the middle of cleaning Napoleon's tank, so he's out roaming the floor. He splashed me pretty good this morning, causing me to fling bits of Turtle Yummies on the floor, and he was having a good time poking around and smelling those and trying to eat them. It was pretty cute, him walking in circles sniffing the carpet, so I got out my camera. Then it got exciting.

DUDE, get some sun!

Hello. What's this?
Image

Dorito crumb? YOINK!
Image

RUN FOR IT!
Image

Image

Image

Hmmm. Now how am I supposed to eat this thing?
Image

He eventually, reluctantly abandoned his prize. Poor guy, I guess he needs an extra treat once his tank is done!

I love the run for it picture! Don't you wish you could ask, "Where do you think you're going?"
And ladies, pasty is way better looking than skin cancer. Skin cancer is on the rise, and hitting younger and younger people. I saw a 29 year old with melanoma this year. And then there's the really tan 20ish women who look like old leather because they don't know when to lay off the tanning bed instead of on it. I have hopped off the soap box now. :D

Yeah, I'm totally conscious of the skin cancer thing, I'm really fair skinned and prone to moles so I have to be careful. However, in the sunlight my legs are literally florescent. There's a picture from my uncle's wedding a couple weeks ago where it looks like I'm wearing white stockings, and I'm totally not. My legs are just so much paler than my arms!

I agree, I'm pasty as hell, I can't stand all the orange looking girls with the fake tanner and over-tanning...it just doesn't look natural

Those pictures are hilarious! That "look" he's giving you in the "get some sun" pic reminded me of the look I got this afternoon when Spot was sniffing my toes....
