I have dancing hair!

I have long hair. Long hair that is notorious for creeping off my scalp and into surprising places, causing me to suspect that it is, in fact, a separate life-form. It's even a character in my comic strip.
When I'm in the shower, I tend to catch any strands of hair that come loose, and stick them to the shower screen*, thus preventing them from causing mischief. Sometimes, in a rather tea-leaf like fashion, I find them making recognisable pictures or symbols.
So last week, I noticed the shape of a woman with long hair, or possibly a headscarf (a religious person might have said the virgin mary, but I'm not one of those). She looked at me a little wistfully, from shoulder-height, like this:

I might have forgotten about this completely, except a couple of days after that, I look back to where the figure was, expecting it to have gone, but no - not only is the female figure more obvious than ever, but now she's dancing.

Of course it's a chance event, but it made me smile so much, I just had to share it.
*I get away with this since I'm currently lucky enough to have a bathroom to myself most of the time.
