When I mentioned that thinking about ex-boyfriends would probably ruin my concentration at karate, I hadn’t thought about the possible effect thinking about potential future boyfriends.
My left foot was a good excuse, but forgetting hand-movements is a bit hard to explain away – as is going in completely the wrong direction.
I should probably also have touched wood when I was so smug about not being corrected quite so often as the others. Oh, well. You’ve gotta laugh, really.
