Discontent Housewives of New Jersey

Meet Lola. She is a bizarre plaster-like half-formed mannequin we picked up from Craigslist a few years back. She usually resides in our basement, where we hide most of our shameful secrets. After yesterday's photography debacle, which mostly stemmed from my inability to look like a human being in a photo, I decided to rescue her from the dank basement and use her as my model. Yesterday, I tried to replicate this Cindy Sherman photo with myself as the subject:

Since I'd gone to all the trouble of cleaning the kitchen I figured I'd redo the shoot with Lola as the star. Although she uncooperatively refuses to move her head or arms in order to pose properly I'm happy enough that the mood of this shot captures that Cindy Sherman-esque vibe.
interested nowtosee more of your shameful secrets..lol
