Let´s write idioms

[blouen]

How about let´s write sentences here using two or more idioms in it. This is to practice and master the proper use of the idioms that we know.

Me first :

John feels like I´m getting in his hair when I tagged along him in the park that he saw red and hollered that I should get off his back.

A : What´s the matter?

B : (silence)

A : What´s eating you? Cat got you´re tongue?

B : I´m tying the knot next month. I was on pins and needles about it before but talking to her parents got me wishy-washy now.
