I'll Crack Your Nuts

I'm going to see "The Nutcracker" with Aaron and my Mom and her "friend" (I just can't bring myself to say "boyfriend". I just can't.) in a few days. I saw it once before when I lived in Olympia when I was in fourth grade. I was sick that day and my Dad insisted that I wear an itchy red wool sweater to keep warm. I remember my friend Joy danced in the performance, but that's all I remember. I'm not usually very focused or friendly when I'm sick, as you might have noticed.

So, hopefully this time around things will go better. My Mom assures me that it is breathtaking, as she went to see the performance put on by the Pacific Northwest Ballet last year. I'm guessing the Nutcracker won't be pimped out like this one, but you never know.
