A wonderful glimpse into Jim's complex romantic side!

OMG, I'm bawling. I'd never read this, being a latecomer to TO and MTT. And now I have a new favorite story. Well, this and Canary. That scene from Money is one of the best ever, and these are the exact thoughts and feelings that had to be running through Jim's head. Thank you for writing them down. blows nose

Hope you don't mind another "old" review! I don't know how I missed this when you posted it way back in 2007, but I'm so glad I found it tonight. I normally like to quote a line that really stands out to me, but instead of a line, let me just say that the entire last paragraph is my absolute favorite. You can just feel how deeply Jim loves her by reading your words. So beautifully romantic and powerful.

Oh wow, how did I manage not to review this already? Maybe I was on vacation. Yup, that's my excuse.
I am just floored by how intense this is. But that's Jim, he's just really passionate about Italian food. (Italian girls, not so much).
I made her look like that. Wow. That is powerful stuff. I also particularly love the part about if he doesn't allow himself to forget what it was like to want her all those years, he won't become that knucklehead Roy who took her for granted. Guh.
God, I miss those two.
Author's Response: What a treat to see this, lisahoo! You know, I'm never going to hesitate to leave a review on an author's older stuff, because it was so great to read this today. I'm so glad you liked this and you quoted my favorite line in the whole thing, so win-win-win! I can't stand how much I miss all of them, but especially J&P. I think today would be a good day to pop Money into the DVR and cry in my beer. Join me? Thank you for always being so supportive and thoughtful. :-*

Oh Sweetpea....this was so beyond fabulous and totally real. I could imagine all these thoughts running through his head on the way back into that office. Just pitch perfect!
Author's Response: Wow, I'm so sorry I missed this until now, LF. It must have been before I turned on the email notification dealio. I'm so glad you thought this felt real - I lost count of how many times I replayed that scene - gah! The look on his face!

Yup, that's what he was thinking while walking up the stairs, down the hall and through the office doors. The past sucked and thank god he's done with it and has the rest of his life to just love this woman.
I'm a wee bit embarrassed to tell you how many times I read this before I got around to reviewing. Quite a few times, ok? Don't throw manure at me or anything. :)
Author's Response: Please! If I were going to Scranton, I'd buy you a beer or four for all the great reviews you've left for me. It was fun (and a little scary) getting inside Jim's head. I've spent more time thinking about getting in his pants. I know, I know. Fictional, overqualified, and unavailable. Damn! Thanks, as always.

That was awesome! So glad to read a perspective on what Jim was feeling when he made the trek back to the desk. This could be a good series. Any of his actions that might need explaining (like how he felt when Pam made him carry the lamp or an expansion on his TH at the Schrute Farm about their 1st ttip away). Anyhow, great job!
Author's Response: Hmmm...inside the head of Jim Halpert. That would be interesting! Probably not as entertaining as time4moxie's great piece from the POV of Jim's penis (the fabulous Talking Head - go read it!) but it might be a cool series. It's scary as hell writing in the first person, but it would be a fun challenge. Thank you so much for the review, support_the_rabid!

that's a whole lot of thought in a short time, but man, do i feel it!!! awesome job!
Author's Response: StarShine, your review got me thinking and now I want to rework this a little. Thanks so much for reviewing, it means so much.

Wow! So good Sweetpea! I really feel everything you wrote for Jim. It was all over his face and you wrote it beautifully! Bravo!!
Author's Response:
Aw, thanks, GiaC! I'm dying to edit this thing now that it's up and I'll probably get around to it next week. Argh. I really loved JK's face during this whole scene, so it was fairly easy to take that cue. Thank you for the sweet review!

Yay! This is exactly what I imagine he was thinking on the walk between the stairwell and reception.
Author's Response:
Yay! It's always good to know that the thoughts and words you give to these characters sound true. Thanks so much for the review, bebitched!

Amazing.
Author's Response: Thank you, Nan! And thank you for being such a good reviewer. It means so much.

Awesome! I loved the way you incorporated the angsty Jim from past seasons into this explanation of the new Jim. I don't know if that makes any sense, but what I really meant to say was that this story does a nice job of pulling it all together and showing how Jam has come full circle. Well done!
Author's Response:
It makes sense to me, Azlin, cause that's what I was hoping for. Seeing his happiness now is so much sweeter because of all that happened, and I don't think the memory of how much he longed for Pam will ever go completely away for him...in a good way. He knows he's a lucky man and he's never going to forget it. Thank you so much for the review!

I've got the same goosebumps I had when I watched Jim work through this on screen. You really captured what his thoughts could have been in those moments startlingly well.
Author's Response: Goosebumps! Dawesome! Completely terrifying doing the first person, so I'm glad it rang true for you, jinx. Thank you so much for the review!

"I am the luckiest son of a bitch that ever lived and she’s going to know it every single day, starting right now." -- Perfect. You totally nailed it.
Author's Response: I really could have just made that the first sentence and stopped right there, right? Glad you liked it and thanks so much for the review, mothclubber!
