Argh, I am out of the country!

Ooh, one right in my back yard in San Mateo!

It's perfect time for moving companies and their vendors, since it is low season for them.

I was wondering if she was there. I would not be sad to have Promise again.

I think it means top 5 at 2025 Nationals.

I think it’s fine. Love the program!

Well, given that they are changing up the Free as the season commences, I'm not mad about their choice. They had to pick something reliable given the short timeframe.

I find this surprising since Eteri has been at the boards at a number of ISU events, including Worlds. I guess the IOC screened pretty carefully.

Huh, Gaga is not junior-ish music at all. Alysa has not been able to train well with the boots issue, but I can see the potential in the choreography, which had input from a pop choreographer. She admitted that she couldn’t show what she can do at this competition. And having been in the arena...

Oops totally right about the disco thing. Didn’t know that she launched in Germany and had that reach. My use of present tense was about the music, not her - no disrespect intended. I do stand by my premise that Gaga is a different vibe, who is current and had over 2 million people at her...

This. Donna Summers is an old-school pop that appeals to a primarily American audience. Lady Gaga is modern and has a worldwide following! As long as it is music she is excited to skate to, I'm good. With all the swirly no-beat songs (sorry Amber) thank goodness for Alysa skating to pop with a...

And she’s scheduled for a challenger competition too, isn’t she?

I LOVED all the (relatively innocent) tea that Adam spilled on what he saw. Also, I forgot SO many things - Yuna going to Peter Oppegard (who is not identified as Michelle Kwan's former brother-in-law), for example.

Other folks have probably already found this, but I just discovered Jackie Wong is doing an Olympic year podcast with Michelle Ellis (she did the fabulous Ice Dance lore episodes on The Runthrough podcast this summer). They will be doing live weekly shows. It’s available on YouTube, Apple, all...

Gabby refused to skate sessions on the ice with Laurence's former partner once the allegations about him became public (while Guillaume choreographed/coached for them). I can't imagine they are friends now that Cizeron has partnered with Laurence.
