Juggling:

I’ve always wanted to get better at juggling. This unemployment thing seemed like the perfect time to give it a try. The goal is to be able to do five balls at once…. that of course requires that I be able to do four balls at once first. I got a good head start at bittersweet on the four ball thing, especially when on the way back we got stuck in the providence airport for 4 hrs. With somewhere between 10-15hrs of practice this is what I look like on a good attempt:

There’s still lots of room for improvement. I’ve also started trying 5 balls, with about two hours into it, this is what it looks like:




Not quite as polished, but maybe a little more entertaining. If you look closely I think there’s one try in there where I go through one whole cycle without dropping a ball. It’s the little victories that make you realize how much farther you have to go. How many more hours until I get as good at five as I am now at four? My guess is 30. I’m usually off by a factor of two… I hope it’s not 60hrs away.
