Inspired by Emily.

  • a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
  • a toss-up
    • Referring to my indecision.
  • back to square one
  • beat a dead horse
  • between a rock and a hard place
  • bite off more than you can chew
  • cast iron stomach
  • chip on your shoulder
  • cross your fingers
    • I try to hope for the best but often expect the worst.
  • curiosity killed the cat
  • diamond in the rough
  • don't count your chickens before they hatch
    • Too often, I am guilty of doing just that.
  • don't put all your eggs in one basket
    • I've come to expect nothing from anyone.
  • drastic times call for drastic measures
  • finding your feet
  • flash in the pan
    • I need to quit getting my hopes up.
  • free as a bird
  • get down to brass tacks
  • go for broke
    • Once in a while I get truly passionate about something (or someone...) and am willing to give up everything.
  • go out on a limb
    • I'm a people pleaser.
  • head over heels
    • Oh, geez.
  • hell in a handbasket
    • I hide it fairly well.
  • idle hands are the devil's tools
  • if it's not one thing, it's another
  • in the heat of the moment
  • it's a small world
  • lone wolf
  • New York minute
    • Why, why, why do precious moments seem so fleeting?
  • no room to swing a cat
    • This is how I feel being stuck at home again.
  • on pins and needles
    • I'm an anxious kid.
  • stubborn as a mule
  • the best of both worlds
    • I desperately hope for this someday.
  • third time's the charm
  • true blue
  • wise as an owl
    • But sometimes not the brightest bulb.
  • you can't judge a book by its cover
