Can't see the forest through the trees.

When a person focuses too much on small detail (trees), and misses the big picture (forest).
Stressed out person on vacation: "we have to awake at 4:00am, eat breakfast at 5:00am, goto the tour at 6:00am, arrive at the park 1 hour later, buy this, see that, go here, go there... are you writing this down!"

me: "how about, I'm on vacation, I'll be resting and meet you for lunch."

me behind the other person's back: "yikes, that person Can't see the forest through the trees."

Hittin The Trees Like Sonny Bono

The smoking of an assload of pot at once. 4 blunts, 3 joints, 4 bowls, a whole pan of "adult brownies", a whole loaf of bread (toast) with cannibutter, and 15 bong rips to be exact. And its funny because Sonny Bono died skiing into a tree.
