| A | B |
|---|
| my dogs are barking | my feet are hurting |
| long in the tooth | really old |
| dropped the ball | forgot to do something |
| missed the boat | didn't get it-didn't understand it |
| bury the hatchet | make peace |
| it's raining cats and dogs | it's pouring rain |
| like two peas in a pod | identical |
| pulling your leg | to tease or fool someone |
| off your rocker | crazy, silly, foolish |
| for the birds | worthless |
| forty winks | short nap |
| fish out of water | someone who doesn't fit in |
| fit as a fiddle | in good shape |
| face the music | take what you have coming to you |
| dropped like a hot potato | get rid of something quickly |
| down in the dumps | sad and depressed |
| down-to-earth | sensible, realistic |
| cat got your tongue | is there a reason you're not speaking |
| catch you later | will see or speak to you in a bit |
| can't hit the side of a barn | to have terrible aim |
| up a creek without a paddle | difficult or impossible situation |
