Wow. This was ridiculously good. One of my favs of all time. Must read again. So far beyond the basic good piece.

Author's Response: Wow, thank you!  I'm so glad you liked it. I wrote a novel last year and stole a few scenes from this for it, so maybe someday it will live in another format!

Just had to love Karen in this. Too funny. I never get tired of the happy Jim and Pam stories you weave. I will be sad to see this one end, but excited to see how you do it.
Thier banter is always perfect when you write it. Uh, and Jim is so sweet here. I want one. :)

Author's Response: I wish I had free Jims to hand out with every review.  Thanks so much for commenting - I'm delighted you liked the new chapter!

So, so good. Moxie, it has been a marathon, and a very well done marathon at that. I am sure I say it every chapter, but this one is so well done. I love the begining, establishing their routine, and the emails, really cute and well don. This story always feels real to me. Yay. So glad it is done and and to know the ending (which was also awesome) but so sad to not have any more.

Aw, I am so glad she went back and he called.
The banter throughout this chapter is just perfection.
Really nice work. And so worth the wait!

I for sure think that was the best of the 30 chaoters thus far. Seriously awesome.
I usually hate it when Kelly is portrayed as a dumb girly-girl, but this was a great combo of dumb and funny and girly and just perfect.
And, wow, all the texting and the order of the beginning (learning about when she went back after learning about Monday morning) was just perfect.
Oh, it was so good, I really think it was my favortie chapter of them all. The Jim/Pam interaction from afar was spot on, sweet and witty. Just to die for perfection. Loved it!!

Wow. Can't wait for Pam to start work at the corporate offices! This story is too much fun! And I can't decide if I want Jim and Pam to be happy in their new life or old one... I guess knowing both is possible is best... Can't wait to see how you resolve this!

Author's Response:

Believe me, I know it's hard to decide which option is best:D Thanks for your review:)

Yay! Great Jim/Dwight interaction and Jim/Jill and Jill/Dwight! Great dialogue. So happy!

Author's Response: That line just always stuck with me when he said it in Bring Your Daughter Work Day during Season 2. Thought it was so hilarious! Glad it worked here.

Summary: Past Featured Story

MEMBER'S CHOICE - The Jim and Pam saga affects more than just those two. Sometimes it's hard to sit by and be a mother while those two dance around the subject.

New Chapter added - more Jim/Pam holiday fluffiness.  :-)

"Her sensitive middle child." That is so true. I never really thought much about it, but Jim is so a middle child. You are really perceptive here and have picked up so much about Jim's character. And then you explain it to us, as only a mother could. I love this perspective.

I read this after talk about it over at TWoP and am so happy to have done so!
I thought the dialogue was really perfect. Loved Jim's 3M joke and Pam's comback was spot-on.
When Pam 'brought her hands to her face' as she opened teh door, I so did the same thing.
Well done!

Loved your thoroughness throughout.

Thanks!

Author's Response: thanks so much!  You know, I think I'll go back and read it all again tonight myself!  It's easy to get so wrapped up in the chapter you're working on that you miss the overall picture!

I had to write something about what went on in Jamaica.... and then I had to add part II, from Michael's perspecive.

Not 100% confident in how well part II works, but I'll throw it out there.  Feedback is awesome.

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)

Author's Response: I cringed as I wrote. I'm such a wuss. Whenever Michael comes on in a new episode, I just cover my eyes because I know I'll be cringing.
