Dynamite

I think every Monday needs something catchy to kick off the work/school week!  This song does the trick for me.  I can get it stuck in my head so easily so chances are I'm gonna be singing this one the rest of the day! :)  Probably you will be too!  Haha!  

My oldest redhead wonder likes this song, she suggested it for today.  It's such a fun song, there's no real message it's just fun.  I actually find it kind of annoying and yet I obviously can't help myself because here it is featured!  :) 

So throw your hands up in the air sing ay-oh and let go!  Make your Monday great!

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment. 

More bang for your buck

This phrase was used a lot in 1953 but an earlier citation puts it at 1940 in a Metals and Plastics Publications advertisement. Read about it here . The phrase means you get more for your money.

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment.
