Form is nearly done

So, my form is 'done', by which I mean it is to the point where I have a beginning, middle, and end. Some revising will have to be done before it reaches its final incarnation, however, and that may be a while yet.
While showing it to Master Brinker the point arose of balancing the form, by which is meant having the right and left sides equally represented. The form was slightly unbalanced, and the more I looked at it, the more unbalances appeared; therefore, I've structured it in similar style to Long, with the first and second halves mirroring each other. My form is balanced, and now I've reached my 28 move goal. There are two glitchy spots right now, but I'm confident I can have a satisfactory solution in the near future. One criticism I received upon showing the form to a colleague is that the form contained an awful lot of sidekicks. This comment pleases me, considering the form is supposed to center around sidekicks.
