and in the end...

My command went well. avye, Danny, and Deb were extraordinary, and it was seamless and mysterious, even if it was too short. The commands I was participating in were also very successful and beautiful (ParticularlyAvye's, Whitney's, Heloise's and Deb's) and now it's all over. Tearful goodbye's with the profs and the first years, purchasing photos and getting our certificates were all trumped by gleeful dancing in the Grand Salle for the last time. What a beautiful space, and what a glorious two years.
