What a great description of Pam's days, just the right amount of boring nothingness, spotted with just a bit of angst and a whole other life she has that has nothing to do with Dunder-Mifflin.  Great Pam voice.

What did her receptionist foremothers do all day long without Google Maps to help them plan their getaways?

Oh, hee.

Gosh, that was fab. My gut twisted a bunch of times. Love the passive-aggressive deals she made with herself.  Very Pam.

Very enjoyable.  Poor Pam.  I especially liked this-- ""i wish the back of his neck would shut up."

Oh, man, this is just FANTASTIC.  The details, how she's doing okay, how she plays games even with just herself, the rhythm of it and the wonderful spare writing.  I love how she's not super-angsty, and she has all these life details that are her own entirely apart from any relationship drama, without ignoring that entirely.  And the google searches are just brilliant.  I hope you write more in the future!

Oh, I really liked this.  It's very Pam, funny and creative with the teensiest bit of melancholy, but mostly adjusting well to life on her own.  Very cool!

Your line at the end of the game: one at-bat, one HR.

I can't believe that this is your first post.  Truly awesome, yet so understated.

(PS. I love the imagery of just seeing Buddha walking along and kicking the shit out of him unexpectedly.  This might say too much about my mental state at the moment.)

This is fantastic - I love how ordinary it is, how you've captured Pam's day so well, in this way that she's getting by okay. Incredibly realistic and amazing.

Baggage stuffed with landmines

Your Pam voice here is stunning. It's got the soft, wry humor and the insightful sadness of our favorite receptionist. This is by turns funny and sad, and it captures exactly what her days must be like now. Brava!

This was amazing! It was really realistic, kinda what I've been thinking Pam is going through in her head.. I think exactly like you wrote Pam thinks, so... I don't know if I find that funny or weird, haha. Well anyway, I really loved this.

I really liked this! You captured Pam's thought process and the stifling boredom really well.

Oh, Pam. This so perfectly captured her situation in s3. She's just sort of there, drifting, and it's heartbreaking and real and you have that overall tone down so well.

the office feels like a waiting room

Brilliant observation! 

I love Pam planning her getaway to San Francisco via Google maps. Your observation that everything outside of Dunder-Mifflin has changed for Pam, but nothing inside has changed, is excellent and thoughtful. I really like the whole tone of this piece, and I feel you really caught Pam's pensive side. Congratulations.

I love this!   It's such a real, sassy take on what poor Pam's miserable days must feel like!

This is GREAT!  And exactly how I feel at this moment... Though thankfully, it's 4:02, so I have an advantage on Pam there.  But what I'm trying to say is that this is witty with a dollop of angst, just like the show :)  There are so many great touches that it's hard to pick out one, but the google searches are priceless, her plans to rile Angela, and the fantasy getaways.  Oh, and making it through Michael's forwards... I hope Pam DOES spring free one of these days!
