The House Rules

I have got the giggles.  When I pulled this up and listened to it I could see why it was my friend Misty's fave song currently!!  AHAHAHAHA!  This is great Misty, it's so you!  :) 

I personally have never understood the need to completely let loose to the point of no rules.  This doesn't surprise anyone who knows me well.  My Type A personality likes rules way too much and THESE house rules don't count in my world!  Ha!  But those good 'ole country boys know how to throw a humdinger of a party.  What I think is interesting about country boys is that they can party hard at night but during the day they are PERFECT gentlemen.  Such an odd contrast of behaviors but then again I think that's why girls like a country boy! :) 

Well this song should get you through your mid-week just fine, thanks Misty for shooting it my way! :)

  1. tee hee, yeah most country boys can party and still be gentlemen. I love a man who will open doors and pull out chairs for a woman. It is hard to find, but then I married one so I am set! YAY

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.

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. 

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.
