Well, I'm a klutz.
We know this.
Two weeks ago I tripped over my big toe (yes you read that correctly. Take a second to process that) and twisted my ankle as a result in karate. SOre ankle for a day or three, sore toe for one day. Meh. Joked around about it playing pool with Karate Boy, whatevs.
Tonight my knee popped in an interesting manner it has never done before. At karate. And I fell down. It only hurts a little but is really weak and stupid and I'm annoyed so while everyone else was doing kicks, I was working on my Basic Form #1 (which still resulted in stupid knee, but I could adjust my stance for it)
After class I was congratulated on my falling "technique" which is instinct by now of my brain yelling "Hands up you dork, your ass is big enough to save us all!" I just get annoyed because, prior to my falling, Karate Boy had said the last thing you want to do is fall down in a fight.
GO me.
After class, I had my ego soothed that with all the falling I do, sure, I might get in a fight. I might do something and fall and the bad guy will think he has me. But with my way of falling and going I'm fine until determined otherwise, I'll still kick his ass even after I fall because I'm good at it.
