A very entertaining review of Jim and Pam's memories! I like stories that show the emotional hurdles that Jim and Pam faced in the early days of their relationship. Pam had a lot of baggage to release.
Author's Response: Thank you! Obviously I wrote this a long time ago but it was super fun to show them in a good spot in their relationship, so they could really talk about what they'd gone through together. I was really excited to see new reviews! JAMfic was a big part of my life for a while and it is so fun to revisit it.

Another great story, though I kinda wish you'd ended with a proposal. :) I like that you let Jim in on the game and how his memories in Stamford were so different than hers. Great characterization here and tremendous fluff!
Author's Response: Thank you! You know, I've done so many proposal stories at this point that I'm afraid people are bored! Ha. Thank you so much for reading and commenting. This story was fun- each chapter was based on a word issued that day on the forum.

Happy memories.... memories still to be formed. Like the time when they will get engaged, get married, their first baby. They've got lots of happy memories in their future.
Author's Response: That's exactly what I love about them- the limitless possibilities for happiness. Thanks for going back to this story!!

I just got the chance to read this entire story and wanted you to know that the use of the prompts was WONDERFUL. Great little read!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I have a new baby so I haven't been writing anything, but it's good to know that my former efforts are still being enjoyed!

That's a nice way to wrap it up. And I liked the registered Pamocrat in Vote. :)
Author's Response: Swedge, you reviewed this story nearly 8 years ago, but I still appreciate all the kind words. Jim + Pam forever! :)

Awwww.

As someone challenge-challenged (only one I ever did was the Evening Coming, ages ago), first let me say how impressed I am that you kept this flowing for 13! parts.
Have to tell you, somehow this triggered a memory of a book my daughter (now starting to think about college!) used to love when she was very little: If You Were My Bunny, but Kate McMullan. (Must have read it to her 800X.) Basically a mother describing how she'd love/care for her baby if they were a long list of animals. Not saynig your story is childish - just something about Pam relaying all these examples to Jim, and the thematic, repetitive, rhythmic, playful, soothing tone that brought it to mind. Lovely ;-) (Since I know you'll be deep into children's books soon, thought I'd mention it, lol.)
Author's Response:
This was difficult because I don't do plot particularly well. I'm happy that it didn't go too far off the rails for you! I'm very flattered that it brought to mind a book your daughter loved- that's a wonderful compliment regardless of the genre. Also, thank you for the rec- I'll be checking that out! (Two more weeks to go!). Thank you for reading and, as usual, for taking the time to be so generous with comments.

Aww! Very sweet, lis. What a nice job you did on this challenge!
Author's Response: Thank you very, very much! I've enjoyed seeing your impressions of each chapter- especially what you liked and what stuck out for you. This challenging was (to be completely unoriginal) really challenging for me, because I have a hard time sustaining any kind of plot. Stringing together vignettes is my usual style, but I tried to do a continuous narrative here just because I need to work on that. Thank you again for reading and for all the comments!

Great job, lis, with this challenge. I love Jim and Pam fics that focus on their normal day-to-day existence and this fit the bill perfectly. I like the idea that they wait till the end of the day to make plans ( a la "Money" ) so that their life doesn't become too routine. Happy story, made me smile!
Author's Response:
Thank you! I love thinking of you smiling as you read this silliness. I think they must have so much fun together. Thanks again!

Wow. I just love how you handled this challenge. I could really see all these things reminding Pam of Jim. This is just perfectly sweet without being cloying. Nicely done!
Author's Response: Thank you so much. It was a challenge to think of an idea that would be flexible enough to handle whatever word was thrown at us. I'm glad you thought it worked! I know that walking that sweet/cloying line is tricky, too, so I'm very pleased that you enjoyed this. Thanks again!

Loved it - all thirteen chapters!! Very nice job!
Author's Response: Thanks. 13 chapters is a LOT for me! Heh. I had a great time with this. Thanks again!
