As I said in the previous post, I just took a quick overnight trip to Las Vegas. That city has the most amazing people watching. It's the perfect place to observe glitzy glamour gone gross. My special little friend and I ended our night at a bar in The Wynn Casino. The bar was perched a few steps above the main casino floor. It was packed with straight late 30's to early 40's singles looking to get laid. I wish I had a camera or at the very least a sketch book.
The guys were buff yet had guts and were drenched in at least one entire bottle of cologne each. The women had ridiculously large fake boobs which were on complete display. My favorite was the woman above. She was about 42, had on a sequined disco cap, a black halter top that was testing the strength of its seems, and some super short shorts. Across her chest spelled out in colorful stones was the word Cosmo and she was walking around with a cosmopolitan cocktail. Heaven. She also had the smallest purse I had ever seen. Seriously, it must be a doll's purse. It was only big enough to hold an advil and cab fare home.
If any of you are heading to Las Vegas then please go check out the Wynn's bar that is located right off of the slots. It looks kind of like a carousel. I'm telling you the parade of horny singles is way more entertaining than any of those Cirque Du Soleil shows.

I live in Las Vegas...
The only locals that go to clubs in the Wynn are washed up strippers. Seriously. Locals always go to Ghost Bar, Pure, Body English, or Tao.
But yeah, when I go to work on the strip I see people like that all the time, and it makes me glad I live in the 'burbs.

You don't even need to make it to the strip, though-- the airport alone is terrifying enough! ;o)

that was really depressing, makes me nervous and scared, I don't ever wanna end up like that when I reach my 40s. Barf.
I think you did good justice to drawing this woman-- I can see self pity in her eyes. Daaaamn.
