OKAY. This hot look requires BACKSTORY.

So I’ve been working overnights for the last month, since the store I work in is being remodeled and they need extra help and HEY more money because of the shift differential.  Last Thursday night I was dicking around on Facebook before work when I see a post by one of my daytime coworkers proclaiming that Fridays henceforth would be Anti-Casual Friday, and we should all don our professional attire instead.  I commented that if I had a red tie, I would’ve totally donned it at midnight to join in.

Cut to 10:30 when my shift started, and my other coworker, Mark, brought a tie for me to wear! As well as one for himself, as he’d also seen the exchange on Facebook.

So this is my Anti-Casual Friday OOTD.  No, really.

Check out those sexy kneepads.

I’m arting as hard as I can!

Never fear, my lovelies.  I have gotten three new OOTDs drawn tonight!  Just have to color them in the morning when I get home from work. XD

I have no idea if I’ll get around to drawing things for Alex’s Guide (I need a new header and promo art and such) but this is really fun anyway.

FAT. Fat fat fat faaaaaat. I love my fat!

Here’s another entry in my list of Fat Idols, Ellen Naomi Cohen, better known as Cass Elliot. I love her face so much. It’s hard to peg down her size, exactly, since most of the photos I could find online are of her in tent-like clothing, but I’d probably peg her at around a 24 or 26, the same size or just a little bit bigger than me. I’m thinking of forsaking my annual spring haircut so my hair will be long enough to dress as her for Halloween this year.

The other reason I love Mama Cass is that we have very similar vocal ranges, which means I can totally sing “Dream a Little Dream” and “Words of Love” really well. :D If I had time, I’d record myself singing karaoke to share it.

Hopefully I’ll make a color version of her sometime this week. ^_^
