She's Gonna Be Somethin' Fierce

It’s that time of year again. Hurricane season. L Looks like Irene is gonna be tearin’ up the East coast this weekend. Over the past few days she’s been slowly upgrading hurricane levels. Nani says it’s been a while since the last hurricane so Irene has been long-awaited. I haven’t been in a hurricane since Iniki, back home in Hawaii. And that was like 1992! Almost 20 years ago. Holy crap I’m old! Our area hasn’t been issued a mandatory evacuation but Matt wants to leave and head out West with our friends. I am totally fine with a mini road trip. I’ll need to get some pictures to document this trip. *Disclaimer, those pics may not be so glamorous so don’t be too shocked if you see a not-so-photogenic Leo.

Outside of the hazardous weather, things have been good. I finally got the rest of the paperwork to become an official employee for the other company I’ve been doing demos for. Have I ever told you how much I hate starting new jobs? Interviews, paper work, being the newbie. Ugh. Oh! AND I got a job being a full-time nanny/babysitter! I don’t think I mentioned it last post but it’s for a family that lives pretty close. They have five year-old twins (a boy and a girl), a three year-old girl, and another girl (due in a few weeks). The twins have half-day kindergarten so I’ll only have them for about three hours. The younger two I’ll have all day. I’m pretty excited to be working with an infant/newborn again. It doesn’t start until November but I’m happy that I got the job. It’ll make paying the bills that much less painful. J

Now for today’s song. It came on the radio while I was typing this up. It’s really good one. Well, are the songs I put up ever NOT good ones? J I like it because he talks about how he doesn’t want any other girl than the one he’s singing to. How sweet! Plus, I love me some Bruno Mars! J Be strong, be happy, and find the joy in your life! Love ya!

Nothin’ on You- B.o.B feat. Bruno Mars

Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you babe
Nothin' on you babe
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cause they got nothin' on you babe
Nothin' on you babe
Na-na-na nothin' on you babe
Na- nothin' on you

I know you feel where I’m coming from
Regardless of the things in my past that I’ve done
Most of it really was for the heck of the fun
On the carousel so around I spun (spun)
With no directions just tryna get some (some)
Tryna chase skirts, living in the summer sun (sun)
This is how I lost more than I had ever won (won)

And honestly I ended up with none

There's so much nonsense
It's on my conscience
I’m thinking baby I should get it out
And I don't wanna sound redundant
But I was wondering if there was something that you wanna know
(that you wanna know)
But never mind that we should let it go (we should let it go)
Cause we don't wanna be a TV episode (TV episode)
And all the bad thoughts just let them go (go, go, go, go)

Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you babe
Nothing on you babe
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cause they got nothin' on you babe
Nothin' on you babe
Na-na-na nothin' on you babe
Na-na nothin' on you

Hands down there will never be another one
I been around and I never seen another one
Look at your style I ain't really got nothin' on
And you wild when you ain't got nothing on
Baby you the whole package plus you pay your taxes
And you keep it real while them other stay plastic
You're my wonder women call me Mr. fantastic
Stop… Now think about it

I’ve been to London, I’ve been to Paris
Even way out there in Tokyo
Back home down in Georgia to New Orleans
But you always steal the show (steal the show)
And just like that girl you like a Nintendo 64 (64)
If you never knew well now you know (know, know, know, know)

Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you babe
Nothin' on you babe
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cause they got nothin' on you babe
Nothin' on you babe
Na-na-na nothin' on you babe
Na-na nothin' on you

Everywhere I go I’m always hearing your name (name, name)
And no matter where I’m at girl you make me wanna sang (sang, sang)
Whether a bus or a plane or a car or a train
No other girls on my brain and you the one to blame

Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you babe
Nothin' on you babe
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cause they got nothin' on you babe
Nothin' on you babe
Na-na-na nothin' on you babe
Na-na nothin' on you
Yeah and that's just how we do it
And I’ma let this ride
