She be walkin 'round acting all stank

Yesterday during a job interview, the issue of compensation came up.  I was interviewing for a job that pays significantly less than I make now.
 
I said, "I am at a point now that I have paid off most of my student loans, so I'm free to pursue a job that would be more rewarding in other ways."
 
It was a good answer, and it's true.  But then, as I was finishing up the sentence, I did something really fucking stupid: I knocked on the wooden table.  Yeah, as in "knock on wood."  For paying off student loans?
 
What the fuck is wrong with me?
