"if it's good news, it must be someone else's"

580. grandma use to say ...

"if you're up to your eyeballs in catfish, it's hard to see your pajamas."

now, i have to say, she's been dead ten years or so, and she was an angel of sorts, but some of her expressions ... well ... they left me thinking she's out of her mind.
i guess she was just trying to say, if you're eating catfish, it's long past your bedtime.
that's the best interpretation i can come up with, and it's about as dumb as dumb is.

Not too dumb. You remembered it, her, AND finally figured out what it meant... Pretty good saying, don't 'ya know!
