Living in an Airstream doesn't afford me the luxury of having a full length mirror around right now. I have this habit at my apartment to always check myself in the mirror as a constant way of seeing if the extra chocolates I ate or the extra running I did the day before affected my body in some way. I am aware of the ridiculousness of my rituals.
However, while running the other morning, I ran in the opposite direction that I usually do and was trailing my shadow as I ran. I caught myself analyzing my shadow with the same intentions. It just felt necessary to fess up to that ridiculous moment of vanity. The same day, Carlos said " There should be a bumper sticker that reads, 'KILL YOUR MIRROR'."

Hurrah for no mirrors on the circus farm! And also that you're getting some time to draw.
