drive someone up the wall
to annoy someone by your behavior
lost his temper
got mad and started yelling
call it a day
to finish work for the day and go home
in a jiffy
very fast
fed up
to be tired of something
hit the sack
go to bed
run into a dead end
to get to a point that does not lead to anything useful
life of the party
a lively person in a group situation
head in the clouds
to be unaware of what is happening
has a lot on her mind
has too many things to think about
put his foot down
to take action to see that something happens
on top of the world
feeling fantastic
crack of dawn
when the sun first comes up; very early
get back at someone
to repay someone for something you are unhappy about
on the spur of the moment
suddenly and without warning
get away with something
to do something wrong without getting caught
turn over a new leaf
to start behaving in a different and better way
tie the knot
to get married
run around like a chicken with its head cut off
to do things in a disorganized, chaotic manner
in a pickle
in a difficult situation
talking in circles
speaking in a confusing manner
in the nick of time
just before it would be too late
rock the boat
to cause problems when changes are not wanted
on cloud nine
very happy
cream of the crop
the best of all
