Whether you understand they evolved over billions of years or believe that a God made them all one afternoon, please be kind to animals.

I like my baths really deep and hot. But washing everything only takes a few minutes. So I thought it would be a waste to just flush all that water away. So there was nothing else to do but take pictures of myself trying to look as horrendous as possible. Oh my, what have I started?
