I think of it as going from left to right for the knit and perl and right to left for the perl and knit.  It is easier to understand even though the loom is cerved.  You are still making a flat piece.

Neva,

I am reading and responding, so hope some one else hasn't answered your question already.

I am having the same exact problem! it drives me nuts! I am constantly muttering knit purl, knit purl as I count to remember where I was.

The only solution I know of is easier than what you are doing. when I begin with a knit and end with a knit row, I am always going clockwise around my loom. So if I am going that way and get distracted I touch each peg from either end, muttering knit purl, till I get to where I am. Alternatively, when I begin and end a row with a purl I am always knitting counter-clockwise around my loom. So I mutter purl knit and touch pegs till I get to my place. this method is still a pain in the neck, but at least you need not take out stitches. 

Cathy
