Ok so where do I sign up to the TAA, ( tortoise addiction anonymous)

I have just got 3 more Greeks born in September, soooo cute, I haven't told my partner, didn't think he would notice, but he has.damn!!!!

The thing is when someone says do you want them, I'm thinking No I can't but my mouth seems to say yes...

So I'm starting up a T.A.A for others like me.

Josh you should put up a new thread for it.... Lol
:D:D

The first step is to admit you have an addiction ( and you don't care)
Step 2. Tell someone ( to mind their own business)
Step 3. Get help ( to look after all your torts)
Step 4 get over your addition ( just get on with it)
Step 5 learn to say NO! ( to your partner when they say no more)

I totally get this addiction. So far the only thing that has stopped me from getting a second tortoise is that I fear that I will take away too much of the time I spend with my baby girl. We looked at a new house today which had a study and I was like wtf am I going to do with a study.. then I thought.. well I could have a larger tortoise like a sulcata and it could be his/her room when we aren't home since the room has a door to keep the dogs out hmmm.. My husband was trying to figure out where he'd put the theater room and I was trying to figure out where we'd put betty's cage.

The mouth speaking what the mind isn't thinking has happened to me on more than one occasion. I'll say, "sure..." and I think all the while, "...now why on earth did I say that?"
