i thought it was my modeling career, then i saw the album and song title (and had no idea what maudlin meant [and still don't])

I think it's a pun on that. Maudlin is basically a synonym for miserable, downbeat, weak, sentimental. I also think it's Traceyanne poking fun at herself, as Morrissey does in his track 'Late Night, Maudlin Street'.

seeno is right. Tracyanne said this in an interview.
