I love the little scavenger hunt! Rude teenagers at grocery stores be damned! Hee.
I just didn't realize that I'd never really fallen out of love with you at all.
That's truth, right there. Beautiful. I love that you're continuing this story! *happy dance*
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm sorry the updates are slow, but I vow that I'll finish it at some point! And I'm really glad you liked this chapter. I had fun writing it!

Oh, Azlin, I finally came to catch up on this, and it didn't disappoint. I LOVE this! Jim's letters are wonderful, and Karen's going, and Jim and Pam are going to kiss each other senseless. Hooray!
Author's Response: Aw, thanks Kev! And I hope you have fun with your pie-making, Scottsdale-living sister. I'll try to have a couple more chapters of this posted by the time you get back. ;)

Oh my gosh, Azlin. I know I've been HORRIBLE about reviewing this story, but I'd like to redeem myself by telling you how amazing it is! It's a really original idea, and I love what you've done with it.
Jim's dream girl letters make me feel squidgy in my tummy, and the last one made me tear up slightly (not too good for work, but whatever). I love how these two feel so deeply for each other!
Thank you for writing it!!
Author's Response:
Hey don't even worry about it. No redemption necessary! Let's not forget who sent me a super-cool package that I will never, ever stop loving you for because it was sooo awesome. I'm actually starting to get really sad about not writing dream girl letters anymore. :( Oh well, maybe I'll still write them just for fun. Plus there are the fifty-millionish other ideas I haven't had the time to write yet.
Wow. I'm sure you didn't want to hear any of that, but that's what you get when you start becoming my friend. I'm really such a Kelly at heart. I'll just keep talking and talking and talking. Or in this case it's actually typing and typing and typing and typing and typing and...um, thanks for the review!

oh. my. GOSH!!! Jim Halpert is too sweet. I love how it's so obvious to us that he's avoiding her b/c he can't keep a secret. He knows if he talks to her, he'll tell her everything. These letters are so lovely, and I can't wait for him to "kiss her senseless"!!!
Author's Response: I'm so glad you got that! Some people seem to be a little confused by his behavior, but to me there was no way he'd be able to keep his promise to Karen (to not get together right away) without having to avoid Pam entirely. Except for the letters of course. I'm glad you liked these letters. They were my favorite DG letters to write.

OMG! OMG! OH MY GOD!!!! I'm so excited right now!!! AHHH! What a cliff-hanger...not fair! You must update this soon! I will go crazy if I don't find out what happens next....
Also, you have completely ruined me for guys. I now believe that every guy should send me dream girl letters. haha. So thanks for that!
Author's Response: Oh please don't go crazy. I'd hate to have that over my head. And yeah, you think you've got it bad, I don't think I'll ever date again. Or not until I find a guy who will do what's coming up in the next chapter, anyway. You'll see what I mean.

Oh, yay! I'm so glad you're continuing this story. And his last two letters? I'm a melted pile of goo. Fluffy goo. So perfect.
Author's Response: I know it seems like I'm giving this one up sometimes, but I promise it will be finished, or I'll die trying. One or the other. How does it feel to be goo, by the way? I've always sort of wondered.

I know I already told you this, but I absolutely love that windshield letter. When he used her name in the letter, my stomach did a little flip, and when he signed it with his name, it did an even bigger flip--and I absolutely can't wait until the next chapter. Eeeeee! So exciting!!
Author's Response: Thanks invis! I loved it too! And I'll try to have more to you soon! ;)

Keep these coming, i'm saving this to my favorites
Author's Response: I definitely will, but I can't promise that it'll be very soon. I'll do my best though. And it's always fun to be favorited! ;)

Oh I love how this is turnong out!! Jim was behaving so strangely, its nice to see a sweet payoff at the end! I cannot wait to see how this turns out.
Author's Response: Yeah, Jim had to be a little mysterious in this chapter, but it'll all make sense in the end, I promise. Thanks for the review.
Date: June 10, 2007 08:15 am Title: the greedy men who ruled the world
Wow. I am sooo excited, I really hope you update soon! Way to go Jim for taking the initiative once the letters ended up in his lap. (Sorry I'm not more coherent, but this chapter has me just waaay too excited!)
Author's Response:
Yeah, I couldn't see Jim not doing something once he knew everything, even if Karen had him tied up in a basement or something. Hm... that's starting to sound like an intriguing idea for a bad!fic. Maybe bad!character Karen.
Anyway, glad you liked it lisahoo! :)

GAH! I don't know how long I can wait for an update, my friend. It's like torture waiting for this story to unfold!
Author's Response: Oh dear. Torture? Yikes. Please don't report me or anything. I honestly don't mean to cause any cruel or unusual pain. Just the regular kind. Kidding... I'm sorry I can't make any promises for updates, but I will promise kissing in the next chapter if that'll make it worth the wait.

I am in love with this story!!! I am so glad you're continuing on with it. I love the idea of the dreamgirl letters. So romantic and sweet.
Author's Response: Thanks. I knew I couldn't be the only one who would love those letters. Wouldn't it be great to find a guy like that? Super unrealistic, but still...

I can't believe you've stopped writing this!!! We need some wrap-up here!!! Please, please keep going!!!!!
Author's Response: I haven't stopped, exactly, I've just been much busier than I used to be lately. When I started writing this story I worked as a receptionist full time which meant I had a lot of free time with a computer, but now I'm back in school, and my free time has basically disappeared. Believe me, no one is sadder about this fact than I am. Thanks for the review though! I'll try to update as soon as I can.
Date: June 09, 2007 07:02 pm Title: the greedy men who ruled the world
Wow! You are a great writer. I hope you keep it up.
Author's Response: Thanks. That's such a sweet thing to say. I'm so glad you enjoyed the story so far, and I really appreciate all your reviews! You made my day!

aieeeeee! this is so good. i'm squeeing right now.
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm so glad you liked it. Squeeing is always a good response, I think! :)

If I could scream "NOOOOOOO!!!!!" and get away with it, I would. I adore this story. And I'm looking forward to another update soon!!!
Author's Response: Thank you so much. I'm so glad you like it. And I promise I'll update this before I write anything else. Well, anything else that isn't an essay on Virginia Woolf or some other assignment. Darn school....
Date: June 09, 2007 06:25 pm Title: the greedy men who ruled the world
WHAT!!You can leave it there!! Tell me there will be an update tomorrow? Ooo it is just getting good!! Can't wait for more!!
Author's Response: Sorry! I feel terrible, but I honestly didn't see this as a huge cliffhanger. I guess it is though, now that you mention it. Anyway, there will be more as soon as I can possibly write it, but I've been swamped by real life lately. Sorry for that too, but what can you do. I'm glad you liked it though!

Great! Great! Great!
Author's Response: Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!

I just LOVE reading these chapters!!!!
Author's Response: Oh good! I'm glad you're enjoying them!
Date: June 09, 2007 04:30 pm Title: the greedy men who ruled the world
Yay! I really love this story and how you use the letters to communicate how Pam and Jim feel for one another. So glad that Jim is finally letting her in on what he knows and told her he still loved her. Can't wait for the next chapter to see what happens!
Author's Response: Thank you! I really love the letter-writing aspect of this story too. And the letters aren't over yet! Thanks for the review!
Date: June 09, 2007 04:22 pm Title: the deep end...
Okay, I totally delurked and logged in just to tell you how much I have loved this story. The last two letters are perfect. Where is the ribbon for this story? It deserves one for sure!
Author's Response: Wow! That's such a sweet thing to say! I'm so glad you're enjoying this story. And I really appreciate your review. I probably would have kept writing this story without reviews, but it would have been a lot harder to motivate myself. ;) Thanks again!
Date: June 09, 2007 03:58 pm Title: the greedy men who ruled the world
finally!! thirteen chapters and it finally happened!!! I can't wait for the next one! squeeeeee!
Author's Response:
You think you've been waiting a long time! Just imagine me, poor little fic writer that I am, and I have to thirteen chapters without writing one Michael/Pam scene! I wasn't sure I'd make it in the middle there.
Kidding! You left it so open to interpretation that I couldn't resist. But I'm glad you liked it, PamPong!
Date: June 09, 2007 03:55 pm Title: the greedy men who ruled the world
The last letter was so sweet and perfect! Oh, this is going to be over soon, and that makes me sad, but it is so exciting to see this story you've created unfold, and I am excited to read the way you wrap it up.
As always, loving this! And can't wait for another update!!
Author's Response: Well, I hope you like the ending. I've been planning it for so long now that I've started reconsidering it, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to stick with my original idea. Or if I change anything it will be to add a little bit more fluffy fun stuff at the end. At any rate there will be at least 2-3 more chapters.

I really love the 'dream girl' letters - I think I was nearly as excited as Pam with the last two! :-)
Author's Response: Thanks moxie! I'm so glad you're still reading this ;) I think the dream girl letters have been the most fun part of writing this story. Although, now that I think about it, I've really liked writing Pam's letters too!
Date: June 09, 2007 03:48 pm Title: the deep end...
What great concept! Keep writing--I'm enjoying this : )
Author's Response: Oh, I'm so glad! And I'm glad you kept reading. I was worried that you might not see the next button after you left this review. But obviously you did!
