You and Me

This is one of those songs that gets stuck in your head but you don't really mind.  :)  Or I don't mind at least!  I feel like this is a cover but I can't find who originally sang it so maybe it isn't a cover and I just know it?  It's a song to me that sounds like a cover.  That's not a slam on Lifehouse at all.  It just seems that this song has been sung before and Lifehouse was doing it justice by covering it.  Yet all other "You and Me" songs that I pulled up on YouTube weren't this song but others.  Regardless. 
I'm currently planning/coordinating a wedding and putting together a playlist for the reception.  I'm pretty sure this song is going to end up on it.  :)
I really, really like this song.  The sound, the words, the music.  I like Lifehouse.  They come out of LA and in the past few years finally hit mainstream radio.  But they've been around the block a time or two in their 10+ years of being a band.  In fact I like them so much you'll probably see another song or two of theirs hit the 365 experiment before the 365 wraps up.  :)

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. 

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.
