Really interesting layers you've done here. I kinda like that maybe Jim's dad's kinda a jerk and not everyone is all happy, smiley in both families.

Great introspection and revelation about the fight. I really liked this letter because it actually seemed necessary. The other letters have been more expository (more for our benefit than for Pam's it seemed to me), but this one seemed to lay out things that Jim couldn't actually tell Pam when it happened. Really nice.

I'm liking this so far. Just one thing - Yellowstone isn't on the way to Seattle from California unless you are doing something really, really wrong. I think you mean Yosemite. Yellowstone is in the northwest corner of Wyoming and I-80 cuts across the bottom of Wyoming. I've driven it across the country too many times - LOL!

Author's Response:

I know, they're going to follow the coast and head home that way (Washington to Idaho to Wyoming).  Sorry, maybe I should have specified!  But I'm glad you like it :)

Summary:

It's a "12 Days of Christmas"-theme for this year's party...but the five gold rings aren't appetizers.

Oh, I can't wait to see Pam's reaction when she finds her present in Jim's coat pocket!

Aw, another great chapter! Good on Pam for keeping Angela's secret. Still can't wait to see what's in Jim's coat pocket ;)

Author's Response: Thank you! I like to think Pam would keep her word, although to be honest I've told my husband stuff I said I wouldn't. So who knows? And about Jim's coat pocket...there's only one chapter left. All will be revealed!

Okay, I was late to church this morning because I was reading the first five chapters of this fic - and I don't care :)

This is such a great piece so far and I can't wait to read more of it. It's so great to see both of their perspectives on the "intruder" into their first Christmas at his folks' house. And I loved Jim seeing his future when he went to find Pam.

Great addition with this chapter and I can't wait to read what's next.

Author's Response:

thank you! I always love when a story is so great that it makes me late for whatever it is I'm supposed to be doing and I can't BELIEVE my story was like that for you!! So cool, thank you so much.

That's a great AU interpretation! I like Pam's clarification that she isn't drunk! Oh and how she grabs the card out of his pants - just fab!

Author's Response: Thanks Jenn! I figured that Pam would want to distinguish between this kiss and the Dundies kiss :)

Author's Response: Why thank you!  And you can - just write about him while you are there. ;)  Of course - Pam has it better than both of us.

Great piece! I loved this part the most:
“I’ll never not love you, Jim.” Nuzzling her nose against his, she grinned. “I know there’s still that part of you that doesn’t believe that yet. But it’ll learn.”

Just lovely!

Great fic and I love how Jim saves the day for Stanley! Those two need more interaction on the show! Can't wait to read more in this series!

Author's Response:

Jim needs to get off his butt and do a little more saving people from Michael!  I love how Stanley prefers to not interact with anyone.  But then he occasionally surprises us, like in The Job when he teases Pam by saying he though she was Kelly (at Beach Day)!  He's a fun character.

The next story in the series should be Groundhog Day.  Thanks so much for reading and reviewing, JennInTheCity!

Re-reviewing like a dork, but I'm reading this all the way through again. Just wanted to say "Hi!" I had forgotten it was set in DC (my hometown), which is always super fun to read about ;)

Author's Response:

I didn't know your city was DC?  Are you from there or do you live there now?  I live about an hour outside.

Glad to have you back!!  I'll be interested to hear what you think of all the new chapters that were posted since you left us.  (Not so much medical stuff, you'll be happy to see...  I remember you never liked that aspect of the story so much.)

Reviewer: JennInTheCity Signed
Date: April 27, 2008 Title: Chapter 9: The Arrival

I really like this story, but I'd rather hear more about Jim and Pam than the medical exposition. I appreciate that you've done the research to make it real, but the characterization and their relationship is more interesting than the hospital stuff. Just MHO.

Author's Response: Thanks for your comment.  There is a LOT of "down time" when you're in the hospital with unconscious patients!  I definitely do plan to explore and expand Pam & Jim's relationship as the story progresses.
