Author's Notes: This is another entry for Heather Hubler's awesome little challenge. Follow the link below for more details. I wanted a more upbeat, but still tricky entry to balance off my last one...Also, check it, all words are bold. Meaning all words originate from the original word. Boom.
Also, this song was in my head at the time. Not exactly happy, but...it is still a classic...what the kids would say...banger!
