When I was in my 20s, I often wondered about shapes: statuesque, round, thin, tall, the shape of things to come, etc.

Sedentary? Jun 6, 2016

Mine's more supine as I laze around on the chaise-longue sipping my G&T and sharpening my pencil

Vanity is a great weapon to keep any bodily sloppiness at bay.
