Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2
Okay, it has taken me nearly 24 hours to review for this chapter. And I only mention that because I usually review on whatever impulse I get immediately after reading. With this one, however, I had to do a lot of processing. I have spent about a month all twitterpated, a little in love, and a little obsessed with all things JAM. I rarely think of anything else. However, this fic was like cold water thrown in my face. Now, I definitely don't mean that in a bad way - at all. In fact, I really am loving this fic. So let me explain... I am 99.9 percent sure that this is about what will happen on the show in the fall. I have kind of known that for a long time, too. But I don't know if it's the realism in certain passages of the story, or if it's because The Office released casting info so I can now put a face to the JAM threat - whatever the reason, this story got to me big time. I've been reading all of this lovely Jim and Pam angst and fluff, etc. etc. and I always find myself relating to and feeling more for Jim than Pam. However, this fic made my heart break for Pam. I can feel for her so clearly and it was so real and so much - that it freaked me out. I mean, I can imagine how it would feel to find your one constant in life, being someone else's constant right in front of your face. Completely shattering. I was honestly depressed for a little while after reading this (which I think should be taken as a compliment towards your great writing) which is why I couldn't review for a full day. I wasn't sure if I wanted to read anymore Office fanfic for awhile. But, the point of this, the longest review I've ever written (rambled), is BRAVO!!!!
Author's Response: Wow, thank you SO much. I am seriously flattered.
Jim dies of boredom, yes, again. Takes place after "Booze Cruise".
