That is why I write this column. On a personal level, I need to take credit where it is earned and confess that which deserves confession, then put it all to bed as one snugly-tucked memory. I will leave this office content--not completely satisfied by any means, and strenuously wishing there were time still to implement the lessons I have learned, but satisfied nonetheless.

...dancing that breathtaking (and romantic?) duet with the Nutcracker Prince? Some of the intensely traditional ballet's parts, however, may ring a bit uncomfortable with audiences today--all the little boys receive guns and promptly pretend to shoot one another, while all the little girls receive dolls and are content to sit and rock them. Yet despite borderline-misogynistic scenes like this, the first few scenes exude a delightful sweetness found in only the prettiest of children's tales...
