Stacie Orrico - I'm Not Missing You

I know, I know ... I'm a bad, bad blogger. I've been neglecting the few readers I had and now I'm sure they've all moved on to someone more entertaining and fulfilling. What can I do to win them back? I'll start by promising to post weekly, Thursdays, a column of sorts ... "The Stupidest This Week"! I see a lot of really dumb things on T.V., the internet, over email, and just out in public.

Well, I guess if this is the worst thing that I’ve got to be bummed about, then my life must be going pretty well (it’s not but this is what I’m writing about today anyway, so deal). My favorite morning show has been cancelled. I’ve been listening to this station since I came to Houston over 13 years ago, and I’m actually considering deleting it from my programmed radio dial. Last Friday was the

Yes, I think it’s that time again. It’s a good idea to do this at least once a year especially if you go out and meet new people as much as I do. I’ve been accused of not being outgoing enough. My photos and social calendar prove otherwise. Please keep in mind, I'm not trying to devalue any friendships. They are all important to me and have the potential to grow. I know I’m risking pissing

“You hate me? … Be honest.”“That would certainly make my life easier.”There have been too many days lately that I find myself second guessing everything that’s led me to this point, like I’m trying to find some reason or meaning for all the madness of the situation. Every event in life happens for some reason, some bigger plan. I’m still waiting for mine to surface.As if they were all just

I don’t usually read more than a few lines of these, but this one really hit home. This really is how I try to deal with my life as big issues arise, one after another sometimes bombarding and overwhelming me with more than I feel I can handle. After crying my eyes out of course, I often have to talk myself into stepping back, and say the words out loud, “I’ve been through worse things than this.

The first morning, I woke early, picked up my new book, and made my way down to the main patio. The view was so breathtaking and overwhelming, I literally cried. I thought about the couple who had brought us all there to share in the moment when they would publicly dedicate the rest of their lives to each other. I thought about the friends I was sharing this experience with. And most sadly, I

I get a lot of silly jokester emails all day, everyday. No matter how many times I tell my friends not to send me this crap and that I don't even open it, they still do. I decided to actually look at a couple things today, just because the day is dragging ass.This is just dumb. I should have listened to my first instinct. I wish I could get that 2 seconds back. Thanks anyway Rockstar. And now

I just wanted to take a second to introduce a new blogger. Well, actually he's a friend from MySpace who I convinced to join the blogger world. He emails me these fantastic compliments about my writing, which I take as pure flattery. During our email tizzy, I've managed to convince him to start his own blog, what with all his wordly travels and jet-setting lifestyle. I expect some entertaining

Just the sound of it escaping my lips brings back the memory of warmth, sounds of waterfalls, and sweet tastes. I had a really hard time convincing myself not to take BFF’s suggestion of lying to my co-workers about my car breaking down so that we could enjoy another crazy night in the big D. I had an absolute blast. I definitely did not want to come home. As I’m soaking up the sun, contemplating

Just checkin in. Well I had a really productive and fun week. I finally got back into my workout routine again. And I've got a great weekend planned. One of my BFFs is competing in a fitness competition that she's worked really hard on. So one of my other BFFs and I are going to watch the show and support her.I just want to say that I love these two girls with all my heart. No, I'm not a

I’m so pissed off I can’t even think straight right now. So forgive me if this comes out completely incoherent.I am so sick of gossipy assholes with nothing better to do with their fat asses than make up fabrications about people just to fill their own pathetic lives with any attention no matter how negative or dramatic it may be.

I’ve been wasting a lot of time lately reading blogs, surfing myspace and the net, but mostly reading blogs. I feel obligated to post something here. The problem is, I don’t feel very inspired to write anything. Not much has changed in my life, so there’s not much to write about. There have been the occasional encounters that have caused everything from butterflies and weak knees followed by the

It's got to be the most intense feeling one can have, just the knowing that you are loved, I mean really loved by someone you know would do anything in the world for you and would never hurt you or make you cry. Why do we have such an insatiable need for that extraordinary connection? I know why I need it so badly. It has more to do with my childhood (or lack thereof), than any natural

My head hurts a little, my stomach is queasy, and I had a really hard time getting up for work this morning. I have Sass to thank for that. She knows how to take my mind off of my frustrations and what to say to encourage me that I'm doing the right thing. I'm trying to remember exactly how many guys I passed my number on to and if I had my booze-goggles on during the exchange. No help from Sass,

I was doing some personal spring cleaning today (another mundane task to avoid doing any productive work at the office). I came across a love letter written to me last summer. It brought a happy tear to my eye and made me recall good times, something else I have to be thankful for. Life is fine right now ... full of puppy kisses, the love of a family, beautiful friends, good lovin', and the

Life has a way of making me question everything around me and second guess every analyzation and decision I make on a daily basis. As much as I'd like for it to be simple, peaceful, and happy, it never really is. But I guess that's what makes it all so exciting. Where's my "Easy" button? I'm notorious for making bad choices and as a consequence, my life is full of regrets. I can give all my

I was feeling much better yesterday after the rain stopped. I got a phone call around lunch time. It came from someone that is not necessarily a close friend at the moment, but who is recently closely tied into my life right now. I have no doubt that he'll be a close friend over time. He's an over-achiever and a work horse to say the least at his young age of 37 years. He was calling me from the

My weekend was crap. And now it looks like it's going to rain the entire week to make that crap as well. I hate it when I build an event or day up in my mind to be something so fun and exciting and then something completely out of my control happens to steer it in the complete opposite direction turning it into something so piss poor that it doesn't even deserve acknowledgment in the form of any

Hey blogger world! My mommy is pretty busy trying to look busy, but I don't think she's working very hard. Anyway, I've hijacked her computer for a little while. I really dig the internet, man! I can see why my mommy prefers surfing the web over working. While she was busy doing who-knows-what, I was browsing this website. She told me about it and showed me the entry she posted about me.

One of the most soothing smells I've ever encountered in my life, second only to the smell of babies which is very easily accomplished by purchasing baby powder. So if someone invented a puppy cologne that captured this scent, I'd spend every penny I have in savings to buy stock in that company just so my Titus would always smell like puppy's breath even when he gets older and looses it.

Yes, I'm in love with this beautiful, tiny ball of fur. Look at that face! How could you not fall in love? His name is Little Titus. He's a lot like me: beautiful, cuddly, and quiet. He's a little young though, only 6 weeks and 2 days old. He weighs all of 1.5 pounds. We're just getting to know each other so I'm waiting to see more of his personality come out any day now. He's perfectly content

Happy 2006! I had a fabulous Christmas and New Year celebration. I was with the two people I love the most. Then 2006 slapped me in the face with a cold dose of reality and left my heart empty.This year will definitely start off with new beginnings for me. I hope everyone else had a great holiday. Quite frankly, I couldn't be more relieved that it's over. No more holidays to celebrate until

I was trying to reflect and evaluate so that I could come up with an attainable New Year's resolution. Instead of evaluating my own short-comings that I might be able to focus and improve upon, I found myself analyzing my most vexatious pet peeves. If you know me, you know that these vexations come out very often mostly in the form of unspeakable curses and highly sarcastic banterings. Only my

My quick bite with Lunch Friend turned into a 2 hour cluster fuck! I pull the car into park, grab my coat to drape over my head (I have no umbrella and I think the coat will actually cover more of my body than an umbrella would anyway), and anxiously step out into the monsoon. I immediately regretted that step and even stopped 4 times to seek shelter under overhangs and contemplated running back

I'm such a scrooge. I really loathe the holidays. The only things I like about them are the days off work, the food, and seeing my friends and family more. I'm on a strict diet and workout routine so I can't even enjoy the food without feeling the guilt in the gym the following day. To make matters worse I'm dealing with a lot of adjustments and losses in my personal life right now. Let's recap

What you did last night was over the top to say the least. But I found it to be extremely passionate and romantic. It's a real shame I couldn't capture your attention so profoundly until now. It's even more of a shame that you are continuing with the exact behavior that has brought us to this place, which tells me your actions and words last night were less than sincere.I hate second guessing

Well, yesterday, I accomplished absolutely nothing. My boss was out sick all day, and since I'm the only other person in the office at the moment, I chose to be a complete slacker.

I woke up this morning from an almost sleepless night and thought to myself, "What just happened over the past 2 weeks?" I've been walking around for the past several weeks in a daze of denial and most recently, disbelief. I've just been dumped, or was it mutual? ... I'm still really confused about the whole thing? I sort of knew it was coming, but it still hurts and frustrates the hell out of me

Yes, yesterday was my stinking birthday. I don’t really like to talk about it because I hate celebrating it anymore and I refuse to tell anyone how old I am. The only reason I’m mentioning it now is because I wanted to tell you about the adorable card boyfriend got me.The one from him would have been funny, but he accidentally wrote across the part that was supposed to be funny … oops.

A cabbie picks up a nun.She gets into the cab and the cab driver won't stop staring at her. She asks him why he is staring.He replies: "I have a question to ask you, but I don't want to offend you".She answers, "My son, you cannot offend me.

Your feelings are as deep-seated as they come, and you don't usually share them -- not unless you have to, or if someone you know needs to hear them to feel better, or you know that it's impossible to keep them hidden any longer. At the moment, someone who's been distancing from you is about to ask for an audience. If you're game, let them back into your immediate circle. If not, maybe it's time

Well there's lots of things going on in my life right now, albeit pretty mundane events, but busy nonetheless.My family in Louisiana is still trying to recover from Hurricane Rita. So I'm going home a lot more often to help with the clean up. It really is devastating to see the town I grew up in and the people I grew up with in this state and struggling so much.

I started another Yahoo group (go figure). It's for Hurricane Rita victims, more specifically Louisiana residents. I think the reason is obvious but if you need some clarification, that's where I'm from and where my family still lives. I was going insane trying to find them and find out what is going on there. So I started this group so that I could get more information from others who evacuated

Well now that Rita has left the state, I think I'm the only person in the whole city who was dumb enough to come to work. There was almost no traffic on the freeways. Half the city evacuated and now they all have to return. The mayor has split the city into 4 quadrins and is asking Houstonians to return on different days to avoid the chaos that was the evacuation. He is also asking all

It's 10 PM. Not much change here. My major concern now is Sulphur, Louisiana. My parents live there in a trailer no less. And my grandmother lives in Cameron, Louisiana in a moderately constructed home. The eye is likely to pass directly over that area some time tonight. The eye is 60 miles out now and winds there are already up to 90 mph. Which means my grandmother's and my parent's house are

It's almost 8 PM. There are a few rain drops here and there but the serious rain hasn't begun yet. It's dark so I can't see how thick the clouds are anymore. But I got some pretty good pics right at dusk. It's getting more windy. The news says there are 35 mph winds right now and that sounds about right. The bigger trees are showing it.

Well, it's 2 PM and it looks like Rita is going to make landfall more to our east. It's also been downgraded to a category 3 and they are expecting the winds not to exceed 80 mph. The wind has picked up here slightly in the past couple of hours. The weather is actually tollerable at the moment.

There's major concern that Tropical Storm Rita is headed our way! That sucks major ass! And I'm a little worried about it.

In case you live in a hole and you forgot, Sunday was the anniversary. It broke my heart to pieces all over again. It also gave me renewed inspiration with regard to the United States’ stance on the War Against Terror. For

I haven’t even gotten off my dead ass to go to the restroom, get anything to drink, or even eat lunch (which actually is a good thing because odds are it would be fast-food which would only make me fatter).

Not much going on right now. I had a pretty relaxing weekend. It’s been raining so much, it’s hard to get motivated to go out and do anything. And from the weather forecast, it doesn’t look like the rain is going to stop anytime soon.

Finally, I've found the most perfect puppy in the whole wide world! And I think his name suits him perfectly. Enzo is Italian and means "the head of the household". If you don't fall in love when you see him, you have the coldest heart ever. He's an 8 week old buff colored cocker spaniel and perfect in every way. He's got the sweet pouty eyes and a little nub for a tail that doesn't stop wagging.

Ok, now that I’ve probably lost the only 2 readers I had, I guess I’ll start writing again. Sorry it took me so long. I was going through a little bit of a rough time for a few months, but I think I finally have everything under control again. Oops, I probably shouldn’t say that too loudly.Have you ever noticed that when things start getting screwy in life, it snowballs so quickly and becomes so

I know I've been neglecting you lately. But, I have a good excuse. I was looking for a new job, and I FOUND ONE! Which actually could mean that I'll be neglecting you even more if I'm as busy as I anticipate. But, I will at least be a much happier person because the job comes with a significant pay increase and training for a more advanced position in the field I've been reaching for in my career

Sorry for such a short entry. I've been really busy actually doing work this week. Ok, this may be a little on the crazy side, which is really unusual for me (not really). But, this has got to be the funniest thing I've ever done. Check out this eBay listing. I hope it works! It would be nice to raise a substantial amount of money for such a great cause. And I love embarrassing myself for such

First, I'd like to start with a story I heard about on my favorite radio show this morning. Sam was talking about the story about Nicole Kidman in Australia. Kidman has won a restraining order against 2 Aussie photographers who have chased her down in a Princess Diana-like high-speed car chase. A listening device was also discovered outside the window of her home! Sam's view on the subject is, "

Ha! Remember when you were in high school and you signed the bathroom walls, desks and yearbooks with "(Your Name) wuz here (date)". That's what this story reminds me of. According to Hip Hop Game, Obie Trice placed a listing on eBay for an old, ratty, outdated sectional sofa for 2 days. For whatever reason (maybe he's smokin' crack and needed some quick cash to buy some more), he thought

I must start with Bachelorette talk, DUH! Yes Sarah, I totally agree with you about Josh. WTF was up with the warrior talk?! Boyfriend doesn't usually watch this show with me (except for the very first episode when Collin was on it). He "works" in his home-office, which is attached to the bedroom where I watch it at a very high volume so that I don't miss anything. When Josh piped in with his "I

Today's entry is going to be about some of the entertaining, if not interesting (very unlikely), celebrity gossip I heard on the news this morning. Some of this stuff is just plain funny, especially the last one. Beware: This is a very lengthy entry because I have a lot of opinions about this stuff directly steaming from my sad reality TV addiction. ;) So of course, I watched the Bachelorette

Yes, it's that time again. The Bachelorette premieres tonight. I always get so excited about this one. Mostly because I'm part of seasonal betting pool and there's always money at stake. I was never a fan of Jennifer Schefft's when she hooked up with Andrew Firestone in The Bachelor. However, as usual, I have a friend who is one of the bachelors in this episode. Meet Collin! Last year, he met

Well, New Year's Eve kicked major ass this year! I had a freakin blast. There are parts of it that I can't recall at the moment, but that's only proof that my first statement is correct. There will be pictures posted soon. We attempted to combine two groups of friends at the hotel party we attended. When that party started to fizzle we headed over to an after-party at the infamous Club Kyle's

Wow, I can't believe a whole year has passed me by again. I can't recall what my New Year's resolution was last year so I can't tell you if I kept it or not. *Sigh* My memory is fading. My daddy told me this would happen. Bah! Well, Christmas was really nice, really nice. We spent Thursday with boyfriend's extended family (aunts, uncles, and cousins), there are about 30+ of them. The food was

I couldn't tell you why she felt that way, She felt it everyday. And I couldn't help her, I just watched her make the same mistakes again. What's wrong, what's wrong now? Too many, too many problems. Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs. She wants to go home, but nobody's home. It's where she lies, broken inside. With no place to go,

Not me. Ha! My neighbor keeps finding dogs downtown and rescues them from being hit on the busy streets around our house. She found this dog and needs to find it a good home. Her desciption of the dog is this: "She is very sweet. The vet said she is in good health. I really want to keep her, but we can't. She and our dog Pilot play so well together and she is totally house broken. I am getting

Whoa! "According to a Houston television report, the Astros have offered Beltran a five-year deal worth $70 million to stay an Astro." ... The New York Post. That's a lot of freakin money. But I guess you have to pay the big bucks to keep the great players on the team. That comes to $14 million a year. How do you even begin to spend that kind of money? What a lucky guy.

I've made some updates to the menu to the right. I added Chaos to the list of online diaries that I read. I've been reading her entries for a couple of weeks. She makes me laugh, especially this entry. Get ready to laugh your butt off when you read it. I also added a list of my favorite songs and musicians. "At Last" will most likely stay on that list forever. The other songs, I will try to

I was watching Rebel Billionaire last night. This dorky guy, Steve, was biding for another contestant, Jessica's, affections. While, I haven't really kept up with this one very well (I've only caught one other episode), from what I gather, Steve was into Jessica and was making his feelings for her very obvious. While Jessica was spending time with Steve, she didn't seem to be returning his

Well, Thanksgiving is finally over. I hope everyone had a good one. My favorite thing about the holidays is all the yummy food. Yes, of course, I ate too much. We had a traditional Italian Thanksgiving dinner in Galveston. Then the next day we went to Louisiana for some Gumbo. Oh my God, you wouldn't believe how good this stuff is. Saturday, boyfriend's mom made us some left-over turkey pot-pie.

Well, Turkey day is finally here. And since it's been storming here for the past 3 days, the weather cleared up just in time. Thank goodness, some much needed relaxation. Great news to start the holiday weekend off, several Christmas decorations sold this morning in Reagan's Closet. Check it out if you get a chance. That means I'll be listing more over the weekend.

What a yucky day. I don't have much to chat about. I've been working on Reagan's Closet for going on 4 days straight now and I've still got a lot to go. I've got all the Christmas decorations up now so if you know anyone who likes to shop, send them my way, PLEASE! Of course I'll be adding more things over the next week. Things like toys, art work, home decorations, and jewelry. So if you are

Well, the weekend is finally here. We've got a birthday party, a Thanksgiving dinner, and the Easy Rider Tour to go to. I wanted to go to the Texas Renaissance Festival on Sunday since it's the last day this year, but I'm thinking I'm going to have to work instead. I'm adding lots of new items to Reagan's Closet, so check it out if you have time. The funniest thing happened the other night and I

OMG! I've got so much work to do this week. And the holidays are right around the corner to give me enough anxiety on top of it all. I've got to take my CE class for my real estate license before it expires on the 11th. Thank God, I can just take it online at work between emails and it's pretty much open book, so it'll be easy to pass. But still, it's going to take me the better part of a day.
