For the last hour I’ve had Maneater by Hall & Oats in my head. So I thought what the hell, I’ll take a few shots that have a woman who kicks men’s butts in love. Like a Preying Mantis or a black widow. Ha! They tilt their heads back as they scoff and laugh at the poor poor pawns of men that have followed them. They have taken their affections, used them and thrown them away like paper towels. Men like their hearts are disposable.
Soooo…. I am neither a Praying Mantis, Black Widow or Maneater for that matter. Don’t want be, just thought it would be fun to pretend. I was going pretty stir crazy from cleaning up poop from a sick child ALL DAY. I haven’t had to change her clothes or wash so many outfits since she was a newborn.
Anyway, let me give you a guide through this very funny (at least to me) shoot.
First off I’m on my floor, which by the way is very clean thanks to a weekend of hard cleaning labor.
This one looked particullary fierce until I noticed the lipstick on my teeth. That doesn’t say maneater, that says Aunt Ethel
Look closely this elusive creature, you will know her by her distinctive markings… a large black eye booger in the corner of her eye.
Oooh the black & white shot, FANCY!
Then the cat sat down right in front of my face, right in front of the camera.
This is pretty much man eater as I could possibly be.
Where the self-portraits began.
And now for your viewing pleasure….

Thanks for sticking that song in my head. I’ll be singing it all day.
I like the b&w. The first one makes me think of Little Miss Sunshine: Growl like a tiger! RAAWWRR!
