I work in a bookstore. On Sunday mornings, we get very few customers because most of them are in church. Yesterday was Mother’s Day. It was even more slow than usual. The MOD, A, was giving everyone their jobs (For some reason, F, the main manager had created the schedule so that we had six people opening when we would have done fine with three. In an effort to even it out, since F had scheduled only two people closing that night ( >.< ), C moved E to closing bookside. Likewise, I had to open cafe since E wouldn't be there in the morning and all of the others are new people who don't know cafe yet). So, A gave everyone else their jobs but said to me: "Stand in the cafe and look pretty" most likely because the shipment for the cooking section was done and, thus, I couldn't do anything and still keep the cafe within eyesight.

Luckily, I have my new phone that I can get online with. For about an hour I circled between the moderation of Skyefairy, Ealain, and my email. After a while I went to the office, got a sheet of paper, grabbed one of the Entertainment Weekly magazines from the rack in the cafe and did a quick pen & ink. Only 25 minutes, which is way cool for me. (I'm a perfectionist and for a full drawing 8.5x11, I usually spend 4-6 hours).

I’m currently working on a drawing of a girl and a baby chick. I’ve been taking pictures every hour or so so I’ll post the WIP when I’m done.

On lazy days I like to wear baggy clothes and not put my contacts in, grab my ipod and my sketchbook, and just zone out and draw. Lately I’ve been working on a picture of an old man, Colm, from a photo by Noah Grey. Good practice for wrinkles and smile lines. And beards; hair is evil.
