Okay good. I prefer the pg era.
if ur eldest son was a teen would u want him to experience an attitude era of wrestling the way we did?
or would u prefer wwe to still be pg even when hes a teen ?
 
Nacho is gone. Went outside to check on him and he was inside his shell dead. He was only out there an hour. I was trying to stay positive but I could see the spark in his eye wasn't there this morning. People say reptiles don't have much personality but I think those people just don't have the eyes to see. Nacho really was a sweet tortoise. His house was by the entrance to the kitchen from the living room so he saw us everyday and would climb the walls in our direction hoping for a neck scratch or some food especially his favorite - blueberries. He really loved us petting him. He would expose his neck for us to scratch him and that was a big sign he trusted us.

We got him April 2020. That was a particularly brutal year for me. That was the year before I finally got sober and I was drinking everyday, sick mentally and physically. But I felt that getting a tortoise was s good thing for me to do so after like a year of contemplation I got him. And I made the right choice. That whole year I was in between worlds. A living hell in my mind. On the edge of my limits. And while I was fighting to not lose my mind I would sit in front of his house and watch him. Sometimes for hours and his calmness and gentleness would help me. My mom died toward the end of 2020 from meth and other drugs. Her intestines rotted away and she was in the ICU for 30 day before she died alone because quarantine. I got the news and I went and sat and looked at Nacho. A little tortoise the size of your hand made me feel like things were going to be OK. Another time I had something weighing me down for almost a decade. A mistake I made that I couldn't forgive myself for. I was sitting and watching Nacho and I got the urge to pray and ask for forgiveness. I could barely finish the thought and that unmistakable divine warmth washed over me. I've detoxed from alcohol and would watch him to keep me calm. My mind races a mile a minute. It never stops from the moment I wake up to the moment I close my eyes. And he was the opposite. Slow and deliberate and gentle. Everything eventually got better and the past 16 months have been the best time in my life. It all started around when I got this little guy. He only had three moves but dammit he got them all in. These Indy tortoises could learn a thing or three from Nacho. He was exactly what I needed when I needed it. I'm grateful for the 2 years I had with him. Who would have thought a tiger and a tortoise could become best friends. :)

Sorry for your loss brother, Nacho was a pWd member through and through.

My response to this question is too long for a text response here. So I guess we are getting a new episode of the pod. I’ll respond later today or tomorrow
 
Thanks everyone. I really appreciate it. I really I really I really I do!

Just feel sad. I can't believe how fast he went. I had a good workout, noticed he was breathing funny and less than 24 hours later he was gone. Strange waking up this morning and not seeing him.

Never easy to put a family member down.
Cat, dog, turtle, parrot... Doesn't matter.

We make these animals our family. He's always going to be happy for the safe life you gave him.

I just wish I could have got him to the vet. But he died around 2pm on yesterday I don't even think the anti biotics would have time to work. I don't know, though. At least they could have told me what was wrong and I would know if it was something I was doing wrong. He was strong all last week until he got sick. He weight was good, his poops were good. He was eating and drinking.
