kick (redirected from kicking back)

kick yourself

if you say that you'll kick yourself when or if something happens, you mean that you will feel angry with yourself because you have done something stupid or missed an opportunity You'll kick yourself when I tell you who came in just after you left. If I don't get one now and they've sold out by next week, I'll kick myself.
