Kitchen ineptitude

[dr_whom]

I've broken three glasses and a plate in the last month. Well, one glass I noticed was cracked and so I threw it away; but the other two, I was getting something out of the cupboard next to them and knocked them over in doing so, and the plate I dropped while unloading it from the dishwasher. Am I getting clumsy and/or careless in my, um, advanced age? Or is this just random statistical clustering? In any event it's disconcerting, to say the least. I don't think I broke that many dishes in the last, say, five years up to that.
