I AM NOT HAVING A TIZZY!
Hey Carine,
To have a tizzy means to be in a state of nervous excitement and agitation; To lose control over something. (
ter um chilique
)
e.g.
Mary had a tizzy when her boyfriend told her he had dented her new bimmer.
(see
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/bimmer
)
or
“I know folks all have a tizzy about it, but I like a little bourbon of an evening. It helps me sleep. I don't much care what they say about it.”
