Kansas City Juggling Festival HLGCBS!

Haven't done one of these in a while! Had a great time at this fest. First one that I'd gone to as mostly a spectator.

Highs:

-Getting to juggle just for fun more than I have in a very, very, very long time.
-Passing with Justin Sheldon! Holy crap this guy is amazing. Far better than he would have you believe he is. We rocked out 10 double-double pretty hard, and had a few nice little runs of 11 double-double.
-Winning the 5 ball endurance (with balls I'd never juggled, having not juggled balls at all that weekend). Came pretty close to my personal best.
-Watching Chad Lunders set another epic World Record
-Playing an amazing game of bocce ball with Rico (with Bekah and Ryan coming up with interesting variations for us).
-Performing my blockhead routine in the public show. It was very well received!
-Winning a $50.00 gift card to Infinite Illusions in the raffle!
-Finding out Infinite Illusions still exists!
-Hilarity with Bekah, Rico, and Eric.
-"Sing Muse"
-Watching Bekah NAIL her club routine in the public show
-Watching Sam Malcom NAIL 8 rings in the public show
-Finding time for a game of Go with Ryan Bradburn
-Eric juggling for a random girl sitting on the porch in front of her house while we were stuck in traffic and probably making her day.
-Field ball
-Justin and Greg's routine in the Saturday night show!

Lows:
-Poor Eric's car :( He got a flat tire on the highway on sunday. We pulled over near an exit ramp where a race that had drawn 60,000 people was letting out. Followed by having to go to two Wal-Marts in that traffic to find a place that had time to put new tires on his car (Wal-marts were the only thing open too since it was a Sunday afternoon).
-Not juggling much on Sunday due to intense tired + destroyed hands


Goals:
-New 5 club bx record (nope, but close)
-200 catches with shoulder pads (nope, but close!)
-Play Go with Ryan (check!)
-Set a world record (nope...but close!)

Crush:
-Bekah :)
-Sam Malcolm, for an great conversation on the way home from the fest.

Bane:
-Fingernails that I'd bitten too short. Thanks for all the band-aids and tape Rico!

Suprirse:
-Chad Lunders made it to the fest!
