Fluster genes come out to play

Ok, today my fluster genes came out to play.  These are the genes that make me forget how to speak English, how to read English and especially make it impossible for me to communicate in any way shape or form.  The fluster genes struck last week when I was doing a maths exam but I had been expecting them that day. Today however, I was happily getting ready to do an oral presentation and well you might say get ready for the fluster.  I was thinking of course that it was no biggie.  I can talk through a paper bag, under water in a full scuba suit, so a little presentation is nothing.  I am not scared of talking to people, actually it is usually how to stop me talking to people that is the problem.  I think the main problem was that the teacher told me about ten minutes before the presentation that she was going to tape my talk.   FLUSTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  After the genes attacked I muddled up all my cheat cards, forgot to do a full introduction and gabbled on and on about nothing.  I talked for too long about too little and made no sense whatsoever.  I of course take no responsibility for this state of affairs, I did not open the fluster gene door the teacher did.  Basically she set the train of events into motion when she mentioned her little tape machine.  So basically I am entirely innocent of any wrong doing.  I prepared my work, knew everything about my subject but was sabotaged by a tape machine and the human operating it.  Flustered, you bet I was.
