I am notorious for butchering idioms. And yet at the same time I can't stop myself from trying to say them. I blame my parents' broken English as I grow up. Although truthfully, it's probably just my own stupid brain. It's so typical of my brain that I start to do something, forget or get lazy, and try to make up the rest. I have at one point said to someone at work "Oh, you beat me to the...uh...to the...time...frame?" Another time I referenced a "clog in the clock." In my defense on the latter one, aren't there cogs in clocks?! So I decided that another theme on my blog will be drawings of idioms. It will be educational for me as well.
