When it comes to juggling…I suck lemons.
In an attempt to improve my hand eye coordination skills, I’m trying to teach myself the oh so cool art of juggling.
And whilst I don’t have a set of actual juggling balls, I do have access to my parents fruit laden lemon tree.
Its simple.
Take a deep breath and center yourself. Throw the first lemon gently up in a tight loop so it lands in your other hand.
But just as it reaches the apex of its trajectory, launch the lemon in your other hand in a similar arc back towards your first hand.
As this lemon reaches the top of its arc, release the final lemon.
This occurs just as the first lemon smacks into your glasses, sending them skewing across your face.
Immediately squint over the frame of your specs so as not to miss the large colour of lemoness rappidly filling your visual field.
Ducking down stupidly to avoid ocular impact with the final inbound lemon, stand on the first lemon with your right foot and loose traction on the resulting pulp.
Lay on your back for a considerable length of time embracing the terminal velocity of fruit. Once certain a) your spinal cord is not transected, and b) the snoopy next door neighbor did not see that you are a klutz: Reset with new lemons and repeat.
Actually, I have looked around for a useful instructional video to help me out.
Despite the intimidating picture leading the vid, the one below seems to be quite useful.
