Go into a tailspin

Just the ticket

Run afoul of

Give of oneself

Stand/hold one's ground

What am I, chopped liver?

Feel blah

Go AWOL

At the behest of someone

Go bust #2

Every hour on the hour

All the while

The whole bit

On the dot

On the nose

Work like a dog

Not the sharpest knife in the drawer

With Kid Gloves

Make Up Your Mind

A Basket Case
