Today a turtle almost peed on me. Kinda sounds like that song Last Night A DJ Saved My Life, except not as cool.
What happened was, see, I’m a sucker for helping out the downtrodden, and there was this massive box turtle crossing between two ponds at my workplace. Problem was, between the two ponds is a major thoroughfare, and the critter was not only causing a bit of a traffic jam but understandably running the risk of becoming turtle pizza, so I got out and went on a rescue. Turns out box turtles don’t become massive box turtles by chance: this kind are defensive as all heck. This particular one put on quite a show on the occasion of me picking her up off the road to place her out of harm’s way: that’s where the peeing came in. I was fortuituously beyond shooting range, but it was a close one!
