I didn't have my glasses on.... 
Anywhere else, this would just be an interesting bit of circumstance, but in the bathroom it feels a little creepy.

It’s great when smiles occur naturally. Buddy the elk says humans are strange because we bare our teeth when we’re happy and welcoming.

Buddy has a point, but Polar Bear Yeti T. Dog smiles when she’s happy to see someone who’s not usually in her world, her friends from other places. It’s a little disconcerting to people that don’t understand it.

the more I look at it, the more I see a face, but the darker shade/black part seems to be the chin, going from ear to ear, and then I see a neck below the black curve, leading to the shoulders…
