Halfway Up the Stairs: Nationals, Day Two
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/01/nationals-day-two.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Saturday, January 16, 2010. Nationals, Day Two. I don't feel compelled to report about what's been going on like last time. If anyone wants to know anything about a particular skater's score, it's easy enough these days to find them. Someone from Figure Skaters Online. Christine W. Meyer.

Halfway Up the Stairs: Lost
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/05/lost.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Monday, May 31, 2010. Gotta blog about the final episode of "Lost." Spoilers follow. Way back during the first season, I speculated that the island on "Lost" was actually Purgatory. Back then, I regularly listened to the show's podcast, and the producers denied it. Perhaps they were thinking, "No the island is not Purgatory, but the side forwards we're gonna show you in the final season is.". I loved it that "the Man in Black" was ne...

Halfway Up the Stairs: Nationals, Day One
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/01/nationals-day-one.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Thursday, January 14, 2010. Nationals, Day One. I left Moscow at about 11:15am, about an hour after my goal. Man, sometimes getting ready for a vacation is a lot of work! Screwed over Conan O'Brien. I got at the Arena at the perfect time; just as I arrived, the senior men were starting their practice session. So I got to see Evan Lysecek practice! Ryan Bradley's practice was worth the price of admission. I love his short program;...

Halfway Up the Stairs: I'm back
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/11/im-back.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Tuesday, November 30, 2010. Wow, it's been five months to the day since last I posted to this blog. It really is difficult to be motivated to write anything when you know that nobody's reading it, anyway. Motivation, to be honest, is probably the biggest issue for me the last five months. Writing, for example, has been really show (although it's starting to pick up now). Christine W. Meyer. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Relativ...

Halfway Up the Stairs: If Dancing With the Stars Can Do It Why Can't Figure Skating
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/01/if-dancing-with-stars-can-do-it-why.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Monday, January 18, 2010. If Dancing With the Stars Can Do It Why Can't Figure Skating. Dancing With the Stars is one of my favorite television shows. When it’s on, I get practically religious about it. The only other thing that compares in my devotion is figure skating, so being at Nationals, where I can immerse myself in the sport, is a great experience for me. Christine W. Meyer.

Halfway Up the Stairs: Undisciplined me
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/05/undisciplined-me.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Monday, May 31, 2010. Ugh, I have really neglected this blog in the past few months. When you know that no one's reading it anyway, the motivation to blog is really low. I notice that I return when I'm applying for a new job and/or project (which I have, just today). The writing has really picked up, so I'm busy, and blogging is always the last thing to do on my list. Christine W. Meyer. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Relatively...

Halfway Up the Stairs: A Miracle
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/06/people-who-know-me-know-that-i-tend.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Friday, June 11, 2010. People who know me know that I tend towards exaggeration, kind of like my daughter announcing to her classroom a couple of days ago, "This is the best day ever! Of course, while she was expressing her happiness, she was doing it in her true canned-phrased form. (Much of Anna's communication is via songs, phrases, and entire segments from things she's heard, usually from one of her favorite TV shows.). One of th...

Halfway Up the Stairs: Morose-ness
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/06/morose-ness.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. I've been hearing the word "no" a lot. No, what you're doing for the kids isn't good enough. You know that writing project you really wanted to do? Here are some random thoughts, before I leave to meet Anna at her speech therapy appointment. Christine W. Meyer.

Halfway Up the Stairs: Figure Skating and Stories
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/01/figure-skating-and-stories.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Sunday, January 17, 2010. Figure Skating and Stories. One of the things about being as into figure skating as I am is that it often makes me feel so out of touch with the rest of the world. For the next week, my entire life will be about the sport- about these Nationals- and if you look at what the world is talking about, you'd barely know that it was even happening. I think that if figure skating was presented in this way, it would ...

Halfway Up the Stairs: Nathan
http://christinemeyer.blogspot.com/2010/12/nathan.html
Halfway Up the Stairs. The blog of freelance writer Christine W. Meyer. Friday, December 10, 2010. Last week, we lost a remarkable young man, Nathan Larson, in horrible tragedy. I'll start with two links: a news report. About his accident and his obituary. I unfortunately didn't get to know Nathan very well. He had only been a member of my Toastmasters club, Hog Heaven. In Moscow, Idaho since this summer. He'd given five speeches; actually, he was scheduled to give his next speech this very week. The ans...
