I clambered into the straw tick ungracefully and flopped down, clothes and all. |
I strapped them to my boots, lurched forwards ungracefully and lost my balance. |

He ungracefully plonked himself into the nearest chair which squealed loudly in protest. |
He ran to me, his shoes clamoring on the floor ungracefully, as if these few strides towards me would forever determine the rest of his life. |
