Adventures in Chin-Balancing

I bought some spinning plates online (dube is my brand of choice. Up next: Cigar Boxes!). I am passively acquiring equipment and skills to put on a variety entertainment show. Anyhow, I know that I need to work on my balancing. I don't ride my unicycle daily, it's winter now, and I'm rusty!

There is a bus bench. It's pretty awesome.
Yes, that is my room. I have a roommate. Don't judge.
So, after viewing the receipt for the props, I decided to start learning how to balance things on my chin. After failing and getting frustrated yesterday, I was able to, today, keep a club up on my chin for about 2.5 seconds, tops.

That is a disappointingly small amount of time. But I am used to being bad at something. In fact, I still can't juggle 5 balls, and I've been trying to do that for over a year. Oh wow. I just realized that that is a really long time to fail at something. If only I practiced more consistently. These things happen when you attend class and do homework, and other lame things like that.

This boring post brought to you by procrastination.

Remember, all you need is a little inspiration.
