its raining really hard
its raining cats and dogs
busy
all tied up
im listening
I'm all ears
Im nervous
There are butterflies in my stomach
in a bad mood
woke up on the wrong side of the bed
lazy, watches tv and sits on the couch all day
couch potato
sleeping
catching some Zs
Doesn't listen
In one ear and out the other
Joking
Pulling my leg
wait! be patient! stop!
hold your horses
kind, good person
heart of gold
take on something too hard
bite off more than you can chew
not paying attention
head in the clouds
happy, feel great!
on top of the world
go study
hit the books
