The World O'Beanie

Lilypie 3rd Birthday Ticker
A tanker fell over on the freeway I use today. Luckily, I was well in advance of it, because I heard about it on the radio. I also had some hydroplaning issues on my other freeway of choice, the 160. On the third one I realized it was not the wind, but rather, my wheels not on pavement. I nearly crashed each time, but turned into the plane. I am so glad I took, and paid attention to, my driver training. It was really scary and I am dreading my drive home.

This rain has got me beat. I'm taking the truck tomorrow just for the sheer tire traction. I wish the rain would stop, it's making my apartment sort of damp and dismal

I may just be having a really bad day. It IS my least favorite day of the year: Spring Fucking Ahead, You Lot. I hate it so much, if it was a dog, I'd kick it. My alarm went off at 5:55 and I hit it. In my world, it was really 4:55. Life sucked from then on out.

I did manage to drag the Beanie to the dreaded Walmart to try out their photo special. I thought I was getting a bargain, but most of the pics came out so-so. I also bought the picture disk, which is not a CD, therefore the pictures are NOT high resolution. They are okay for the internut, so I am posting them below. Notice my slackjawed child who kept putting plastic props in her mouth...


The Easter Beanie


Beanie foregoes the plastic apple for the plastic sno-ball


Beanie asks "What Would Jeebus Do?"

I really hope the picture packages come out a LOT better than these did. If not, I'm going to JC Penny's for the next round. These suckers actually hurt my eyeballs to look at...it it just me??

    I think the backgrounds look pretty natural . . and ofcourse she's adorable . . .! ;o)

    We had a decent experience at Kiddie Kandids the week before last. I'll email you the pix.

    Aside from beanie being cute as hell, the image quality of those are HORRIBLE! I can't believe Sprawl*Mart actually charged you money for those. That's criminal. Actually, considering it was Wal*Mart, I'm not at all surprised.

    I know. It's kind of a one-stop shop sort of picture photo place, and that appealed to me as I like snapshots so much, but now I see the error of my ways. It kills me that Mel/Meira got such fabulous pics for a few bucks more than I spent, and it's not like I spent beaucoup d'argent. I was just trying to pacify my mom's need for professional (read: staged) photos, and I screwed myself.
