Such a great story. There’s something really lovely about that imagery of him dropping the container of rice and stepping over it, more intent on her call. Thank you for this treat of a story.

I could have sworn I've read every story from you... about three times, at least! You're one of my favorite authors and have gone through to read each one over and over- or so I thought. I'm glad I missed it and that it was given a new ribbon, cause it gives me a "new" story that I would have never read otherwise! Yay for new old stories. I only wish you would write a new new one!

Wow, I can't believe I never read this before. It's great. Love the tone, Jim's voice is perfect, the rhythm, it's just great. Well done. I like the open ending, too.

I like how everyone calls to tell Jim they miss him...except Pam. And the details you have here - the nail polish from before Roy?! Wow! That was awesome!

Ohhh. That did not seem disjointed at all; I love it. Such incredibly tiny but just amazing details - the nail polish? Love it. Wow. This was excellent - keep on writing! I love all your stuff!

So sad and so sweet. Made me feel sorry for both of them and hopeful at the same time - which is exactly what I need now. :'(

This was a very sweet story. I love it. I hurt for Jim and his sad, failed date with Karen. (I kind of wish that's how it would really happen.)

So sad and so Jim. Loved all of the little details that you included--to me it didn't sound disjointed at all, it just came across as a jumble of Jim's thoughts. Particularly loved the part where he waits for Pam to call, thinks her wedding was nice, and then learns that she called it off.

Awww, Big Tuna! This is very sweet. I love the way that Jim imagines her everywhere--that's totally what happens when you're so attuned to that person.

I liked this. I doesn't paint the picture I have of Jim in Stamford, but it was very well-written (we don't get much first-person Jim here) and lonely.

Big Tuna. I wonder if she'd call him that in bed. :P Oh wait, that was kind of a creepy thought.
This was golden, as is everything that you write. This one in particular I liked because gasp! The girl he dates doesn't fall head over heels! I always find it kinda funny that pretty much everyone except Pam (and maybe Angela) falls head over heels for Jim in fanfiction--maybe it just us fangirls living vicariously? Whatever, this was a bit more realistic. That picture of him kissing her and making her scared is stuck in my mind now, though--that was a powerful image. Except in my brain Karen kind of looks like Molly Shannon. Don't ask me why.
Amazing, as always. Keep it up, cuz we'll all keep reading. :)

I really enjoyed this. Loved seeing Jim's POV on how he was doing his best to move on, but it just wasn't working. And I loved the sweet and hopeful ending.

A breath of fresh air after the longing, lonely moments from the premiere. Somber, but hopeful. So wonderful.

This made me a little weepy, but in a good way. It's all going to work out, I know it!

That is some gorgeous writing. So beautiful, and yet the sadness just broke my heart.

LOVE IT! Really. Beautifully done.

It's great! I love that it's told from Jim's point of view. Very bittersweet, but with a hint of hope in the ending. Great job!

So sweet. Poor Jim. He'll find his way back to Scranton soon, I'm sure.
Date: September 23, 2006 07:15 pm Title: Chapter 1
Wow.
I loved it, especially the ending. Oh, and I love how Jim drops the food. so cute :)

This left me with a lump in my throat. It's bittersweet and so sweet. What you may thing of as "disjointed" comes across as just very stream-of-consciousness here, and it makes sense for someone as unsettled as Jim to be thinking in a scattered way.
And we all know what her laugh means to him. *sigh*
