"Distant memories of good times with Roy were now interrupted by Jim’s ‘may I cut in’ as thoughts of him flooded the crowded dance floor that was her mind." I love this metaphor. You can just picture that image so clearly.

"Despite the locking door she hadn’t been sure she could get completely undressed with Michael anywhere in the building." This seems... VERY wise.

Okay. Randall nearly got me there. That would have been *extremely* complicated. Not that this isn't... what else have you changed, Pam??? What have you lost???

"There among more of the same binders that were piled on the shelves, some old plaques and framed artwork was a half empty bottle of Wild Turkey and a leather and metal strap contraption attached to a small red ball." MEREDITH. AND WHY IN THE OFFICE????

"“I see time like a rubber band, for the most part it, the band will snap back. However, I amend my original statements on the matter. When you stretch it too much, at some point it will lose its elasticity and won't stretch anymore or any longer.” NOT GOOD. And I appreciate you putting this back in perspective... Pam's going to get to where she's supposed to be.

Okay. A LOT of food on the table. Looking forward to seeing how it all gets eaten.

Sorry for the delay but always want to make sure you hear back. Reviews always such a treat and getting yours are always so fun to read.

Of course at this point it's hard to comment much about what's to come but you know at least that one thing you nailed on the head already. 

Time travel theories vary wildly the more stories, movies and shows you watch and I find them all fascinating - but this goes for time travel and life in general - there's only so much you can stretch before you can't any longer. (time travel perhaps just exacerbates the process).

Thank you again for the review.  

To quote "Lord of the Rings." it's the deep breath before the plunge. Or maybe to use my avalanche metaphor, she's stopped trying to outrun the snow, has turned to face it, and in a moment of calm, closed her eyes and said to herself, "whatever's going to happen will happen. Let it come."

That being said there's something there at the start that did peak my interest. Regardless of how hard she might have tried, thoughts of Roy vs Jim are out and are very much there. The image of a dance floor and Jim asking to cut in seems appropriate.

So, has the rubber band stretched past it's stretchiness? Is it still being pulled to past its breaking point? Right now, really there's only one thing she/we can do. Await the dawn.

Thanks Warrior for your review. Not much to say but, yes. Boxes or not, it's hard to put something out of your mind when its weight is getting to much to bear. But all you can do is try and wait for what's next.

Thanks for always dropping in to share your thoughts. I do enjoy hearing them so.
