What is the origin of the idiom "be up to one's ears in something" and when to use it?
The idiom "be up to one's ears in something" originates from the visual image of being so deeply immersed or surrounded by a situation, task, or responsibility that it feels as if one's ears, eyes, or neck are almost submerged or overwhelmed. This figurative expression is often used to describe situations where someone is heavily involved in an activity or problem, sometimes to their detriment due to the level of commitment or the challenges involved.
