Most of my friends in Nashville know that I'm a juggler. I started "seriously" juggling in college, and sometimes I forget that a lot of people back home don't know that I've progressed pass the three-ball cascade with Koosh balls.
On Christmas day, I was at a gathering with my mother's extended family. I was playing around with one of my cousin's kids, and he started throwing clementine oranges at me. I waited until I had accumulated five, and then started juggling.
Being around other jugglers in Nashville fairly regularly, I forgot that juggling five objects is a pretty impressive feat to most people. Everyone gathered around and took pictures while I juggled the fruits. I think my uncle was disappointed to learn that he was no longer the best juggler in the family... :)
