I saw an instagram pic of Marissa with Ashley W. in Miami, so that's where she's at.
I am a little nervous for her, though. Had hoped to hear news of a partnering or a solid rumor by now

It sounds like things are working out very well between them right now, so I hope that continues! And I'm excited to see what they put on the ice.....and their chemistry on the ice since they're already stating that they won't be lovey-dovey.

And I hope Marissa finds a partner soon as well...

Wasn't excited with this pairing but they sound happy in their new situation. Hoping it continues and eventually leads to good results.

Despite not having romantic chemistry, C/S still had by far the most engaging and complete programs of any US pair because they picked the right music for them and had a good choreographer. Maybe these two can be the same with a less volatile off ice relationship.

Yeah, I wasn't that enthused about this partnership when I first heard about it, but if they are getting along really well and happy with each other, it could be that it will show in their skating and really any chemistry at all would be a great improvement.

I just can't help cheering for this new pair team, as I now see her name!

I really like DeeDee-

um, thank you. but I don't think we have met each other before?
I mean it, though, especially on the night like tonight when I really need a small good laugh for myself;;;

Gooo DeeDee & Simon! :yay:arty:
