You are most DEFINITELY one of my favorite authors now!!! I cannot believe how deftly you are flipping back and forth between Pam & Jim in these chapters. I love Jim's nascent confidence in the relationship alternating with moments of sheer terror.
Too much great text to pick favorite sections. Keep it coming!
Author's Response: Aw shucks. :D Seriously, thanks a bunch, and it's all due to you. If you and NanReg hadn't pushed i wouldn't have bothered adding to this, but I'm having a lot of fun with it. Not really sure exactly where it's going to end, just letting it write itself, but I've got the basic idea down for the next one. But I learned my lesson from chp. 4 and will not be rushing it.

Love when Jim tells Pam she is home -- and that she already has a bag in the car. I adore how they are in sync so soon.
Author's Response: :D Thanks lisahoo, I'm glad you're still with me!

Callisto, so very happy to see an update to one of my favorites. This chapter was a gem.
The part of me still capable of rational thought knew better, but I have a tendency to see shadows everywhere, and she still scared the hell out of me on so many levels. She had my heart in her hands and she could just destroy me, so easily, unthinkingly. Oh, that is just wonderful.
I'm so appreciative of the fact that you can put out such a long chapter and have it be so solid from start to finish, and you're not done yet! Something to look forward to : )
Author's Response: Thank you NanReg! I really love when people point out particular passages that struck them and that was one I was proud of, so...thanks!! Well, on to the next Pam-pov chapter, I've got the idea sketched out but I hurried the last one and wasn't altogether happy with it, so it may be another week or so. Fortunately it's been pretty slow at work and now I'm off for three days. :D Thanks for sticking with me, there's more in the works.

This has really become my one of my all time favorite post-The Job fics. I love the alternating narratives, and the characters are written spot on. Also, some of the little details you've thrown in, like Cole Hamels (my favorite pitcher!) really add depth and flavor to a great story.
Lastly, was the quote you heard from Ben Stein from one of his appearances on Loveline? I was just listening to one of his shows with Adam and Drew on my iPod, and he talked about that exactly, along with his book.
Author's Response: Thanks Jordon! It's all in the details...I can get kind of obsessive about that sort of thing. Hamels really did almost pitch a no-hitter on a Wednesday in May of last year. As for Ben Stein, no, I was just cruising through quotation websites, because I am a sucker for good quotes, and that one just jumped out at me. Thanks so much for your encouragement and feedback! I'm having so much fun writing this.
