The Idiom challenge

[babetoo]

we have "no dogs in the fight" in libya.

I hate to be a "wet blanket," but some of these are "over my head!"

 

[joesfolk]

Boy, you guys have been doing this "to a fare thee well." I've had "too much on my plate" today so it's time I was "in the arms of morpheus."

 

[joesfolk]

Sorry, double post. I must have had my "head buried in the sand".

 

[joesfolk]

Sorry again, I just realized that that last one didn't quite fit the situation. I guess "my right hand didn't know what my left hand was doing." (Okay that doesn't quite fit either.) As my father would have said, I better get my "head out of my ..." well, you probably know the rest.

 

[Zhizara]

Yeah, Joesfolk. "It's time to wake up and smell the coffee."

 

[joesfolk]

You are right Z. Again as my father would have said sometimes "I don't know whether my ******* is bored or punched." But let's class this up a little. So...sometimes the recipes I get at DC are the "stuff dreams are made of."

 

[joesfolk]

Allll right I can't sleep for thinking about this game. It's "driving me up a wall" which is strange because usually this web site is the "light of my life."

I just looked up the word idiom on wikipedia. It said that there are over 25,000 idioms in the English language. And I thought we would be done with this game "in a New York minute."

If you go here it tells you the meanings of many idioms.

I haven't had time to check this thread because I've "had too many balls in the air" this week.

 

[PrincessFiona60]

And I've had "too many irons in the fire."

 

[CWS4322]

Sounds as if PrincessFiona has also "been running on empty" this week.

 

[joesfolk]

Well, I've been so excited "I'm sitting on pins and needles"just waitng for the next idiom.

 

[PrincessFiona60]

"My dogs are tired" and I'm thinking about "counting sheep" and "catching some zz's."

 

[CWS4322]

I'm "bone tired" and bet I could "sleep for a week."

 

[Barbara L]

Yes, like you PF and CW, I am "all done in" so I think I'll "hit the hay."

[joesfolk]

Good morning everyone... time to "rise and shine."

 

[Luvabigdog]

It would be a "wild goose chase" is it wasn't.

 

[Zhizara]

It would be a "wild goose chase" is it wasn't.

If it wasn't a "wild goose chase", what was it? "I'm in over my head" here.

 

[PrincessFiona60]

I am almost, "up and at them." About time to "get cooking."

 

[joesfolk]

Maybe you should "Shake a leg".
