Story one of two that I started reading and then never finished. So, now I am finishing it. Oh, and you like chucking laptops out windows also? So do I. However, since I am on the first floor, it doesn't really help. It just gets a bit dirty and... woodchipy (is that a word? it is now)
"He moved to her, squeezing her shoulders before wrapping his arms around her tiny, hunched-over frame." Thats such a sweet image.
Okay... I think Michael/Jan is better than Dwight/Angela....
:O.... Big Ben... Graphic... Broken Brain...
Again, I don't care how cliche this is, it still makes me smile like a little girl

I love your premises....they are so good and not at all cliche themselves; perfect.
Author's Response: Aww thanks! Cliches are just fun in general and I love being able to do a new take on them. Thanks so much again for reading!

First of all, young lady, do you know how worried we all have been over your absence lately?? I was this close to calling the hospitals!
However, since you have returned unhurt and no worse for the wear and since you brought back such a great chapter, all is forgiven. :)
Seriously...how wonderful is the thought of Michael playing pictionary? The "Big Ben" line, even though I had read it in that early draft, STILL makes me laugh out loud!
So a hearty huzzah for the triumphant return of the Swiffer!! WOOT! :)
Author's Response: I know, I'm so sorry for my recent absence. Stupid work and its stupid conferences. And I'm so glad you liked the chapter! What a relief to know that I haven't completely lost my ability to write ;) Thanks so much for all the support Mose!

I was a little bit confused that playing Pictionary with Michael and Jan was anyone's idea of heaven, but then I caught up. Heeh. Adorable as usual.
Author's Response: Thank you! Yeah, not exactly the idea double date, but whatever helps the creative process right? Thanks so much for reading!

Okay, so, yeah. I thought the highlight of today would be the arrival of my "Moonlighting" dvds on Netflix. Then I hop onto MTT for a routine story check and see this story from out of the blue (the Wendy Blue!). THEN I discover that it's easily my favorite chapter of the series thus far (even though I say that with every installment). This one takes the cake with it's rockin' "Gone with the Wind" references (you must have known that would win my heart!), the seamless dialogue, and your best integration of the cliches yet. All the previous chapters have been fabulous in their subtleties, but this one was simply genius. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, my dear! Your writer's block is most definitely a thing of the past!
