I stink at Math, no matter what language!

I have known for many years that Math is not my friend.  I even learned in college that I have an enemy in Statistics; actually nemesis might be a better word for it.  Anyway, today I learned that numbers and Math, whether in English or German, cause me grief.  So much so, that at one point in class today we were doing an exercise and though I knew the teacher was talking I went completely blank.  I saw her lips move but that was about all.  So when it came time for me to answer a question from what she just said clearly I couldn't.  Since I am not the best at lying I just said "I'm sorry I have no idea what we are doing at the moment."  Though everyone laughed and thought it was a joke I really was clueless...shocker I know.  Luckily the teacher came back to me a little bit later and I could redeem myself, for the most part.  Not surprising, I did pretty well with naming furniture and such for homes.  Interior decorating here I come!  Wait, do I need numbers for that job?
