Summary: A series of drabbles, set after Back From Vacation (with some slight spoilers) and deviating from there. Pam makes Jim face the same difficult decision (and consequences) that she had to deal with.
Each drabble is 100 words according to MS Word, so if the summary says otherwise...it's lying. :0)

I feel like this chapter is where my Pam really starts to deviate from canon-Pam. So I figured I'd clarify. Pam's characterization in this fic is being based solely around the idea that she took all of that "Jim in Stamford" time, lonely and single for the first time in her life, and really found herself as a person. She's still her old self (quiet, funny, and a little awkward)...but she's gotten to a point where she's realized that she has nothing else to lose. She's reached the same "all or nothing" place that Jim had hit on Casino Night, when he finally broke apart and put himself out there. Plus, everyone knows that it's easier to confront someone on paper than it is to confront them to their face.
Also, to every singly one of my beloved reviewers: YOU ROCK! I *love* you guys. I've been updating every weekday, blowing off work and other "priorities", because you guys motivate me like it's your job. :0) Bomb diggety, yo. Seriously, if it hadn't been for all of the great things you've said, I probably would've dropped off after a couple of chapters and disappeared. So thanks.

Sorry about the short hiatus. I had an incredibly bad couple of days (including Valentine's Day) and I didn't want to take it out on my poor defenseless fic. So, to make up for it, I figured I'd give you a double dose. Two updates for the price of one. Because you guys rock so ridiculously much.
