Sniff.  Sniff.  I'm just so sad...for all of them.  No one's happy at the moment.  I hope what Jim said holds true - that everyone does start over in the New Year.

Fingers crossed!! :)

Oh Noodles - you're killing me. 

I don't know what it is about fanfic tonight - I'm desperate for fluff and can't find it.

Geez.  Because you've got to eat you're making me have to write it myself. ;)

My heart is pitter pattering though - 'cause this chapter shows all sorts of promise...so I'll cut you some slack. ;)

Pins and needles....pins and needles....I tell you.  Please.  Type faster!!!

Gah.  It's offical.  I'm at your mercy.  Seriously.  I'm willing to cough up some serious cash if it'll mean you'll update sooner.

Author's Response: I felt that the only way Jim could do it would be honestly.  Hopefully I'll have the next chapter up by tonight.  Thanks sooo much for the review!

Summary: Past Featured StoryJim receives a gift the day after Christmas. And then another one the next day. And again for the 10 days after. Is it a joke, or has his True Love come forward?

Gah, Mox.  Umm....yeah.  Good chapter. 

More coherently - you had everything I love about them - and everything I imagine I love all wrapped up in a pretty bow here.  Them being playful, Jim taking care of Pam, and then both of them um...taking care of...other things. 

Great job.  Get to typing you. :)

So - get working on that.   OK?  :)

Just one little thing that made me giggle.

He was pretty sure his ability to remain a gentleman was running pretty low, and I didn't want to do anything he or she would regret tomorrow.

Liar.  You totally did!! :)

Mox - I have no idea why you are worried, this was divine.  Thank you so much for such a wonderful selection of gifts.  I'm giddy waiting for the 12th!!!  Hurry!  Hurry!!



Author's Response: Thanks, sweetie!  I can promise the wait on 12 won't be nearly as long!!

Brava my dear.  Seriously - quite the undertaking and you pulled it off brilliantly. 

I had a tough time equating the 12 Days - but your gifts were just so creative and PERFECT.  I love the fact that Pam made such grand gestures - I love that she has friends who helped her do it.  I love the idea of them dressed up all fancy (with Jim in his sneakers!!!) and finally, FINALLY being together. 

Just perfect.  Thank you so much.  And never apologize for your epic-ity. (Yes.  That is a word - I said so!)  Lengthy stories just give us more to love!! 



Author's Response: Oh, I'm soooo glad you liked it.  I kinda felt in over my head about halfway through, but I'm glad I stuck with it!  It's turned out longer than my NaNo novel though!!  :-)

I slacked over the holiday but I'm so glad to see so much good stuff to read now that I'm climbing back on the wagon.  Can't wait for the French Hens!! :)

Vignettes II by Colette Rated: M [Reviews - 41] 13
Summary:

A few light bits and pieces I'd accumulated (have written enough angst lately, thanks.) Since they were just languishing, I figured I'd resurrect Vignettes and send them out into the world. Each is a stand-alone, NOT a chapter in a work-in-progress, so feel free to jump in and out. (I'm thinking there will be 3-5 pieces, but will have to see how the mood strikes me.)

If I owned these characters, would I be writing this stuff? Seriously. No copyright infringement is intended.

I love sequels.  I love sequels written by you.  I love birthday cake and have acquired a fondness for basketball.  What an utterly delicious treat.  I'm (not so) patiently waiting for more!

Author's Response: So glad that these bits had the desired effect! Sometimes you just need a good sugar rush. More to come, and this time, it'll earn the 'M' rating (just warning you, in case you want to cover your delicate eyes!) As always, thanks for being such a great enabler (for my serious Jim habit!)

Reviewer: xoxoxo Signed
Date: January 02, 2007 Title: Chapter 3: Engagement Party

There's this greeting card that I bought ages ago and have kept in a drawer because when I read it I just want to cry.  (Yes.  I am a total sap.  I have a card in my wallet to prove it. lol!)  It's a b&w picture of a woman and a little girl standing outside a store window at a wedding dress displayed on the mannequin and the caption reads: 

"She asked what kind of wedding he wanted and he replied "One that will make you my wife." 

Thank you for making me want to cry at work.  I'm in a room full of people and they're looking at me funny.

Of course - that could just be what they think of me in general. :)

Seriously though - what I find so lovely about this installment - and what I find so lovely about that silly card is that it's what I think in a nutshell is important when discussing this particular subject (which is ironic - for someone who gets paid to plan parties and the like). And in reality - I think it's my resistence to settle for less that keeps me on the outside of that store looking at the dress instead of wearing it.

OK.  It's official.  Fanfic is my new therapy. ;) 



Author's Response:

Sorry to make you cry...but, at least they were happy tears, right? I really do think all Jim would care about was marrying her - not how. And eloping just seems so romantic (and kind of sexy...running off together, etc.), especially after Pam's 3 yr. wedding endurance contest.

Anyway, glad this silly thing struck a nerve...and holding out for the scene on the card?  Sounds right to me. Thanks for your always lovely and open reviews.

I love this.  I love that Karen is feeling a loyalty to Pam.  I really believe that Karen isn't naive and that once she has a chance to get settled and the shine of a new relationship dims a bit she'll have a clue what's going on.  And I think your scenario is so realistic.  That she'd originally misinterpret what was going on.  Just fantastic.  Good to have you back Midge!!

OK - warning.  Be prepared.  This is going to be a long, ridiculous review for such a short and sweet story. :)

First?  My friend and I had our own When Harry Met Sally moment last night.  The movie's been on my mind - 'cause Steven Ford played Joe and when I saw him on TV at his father's memorial service this weekend I was like "Where'd all his hair go?"...but anyways - that's not what we were talking about.  We were talking about the "'because I'm gonna be 40...someday" line because we're at an age where "gonna be 40" is like getting almost scary close.  I also had an event in December in the building that houses the ballrooms they used for the NYE and wedding scenes and just suffice it to say I'm totally with you - and Pam - on this one. 

Great movie - and friends like that should totally be together.

Second?  YES PAM.  TELL HIM.

So yeah.  I loved the story.  Great job.  Write more.  Pretty, pretty please?

My personal NY's resolution?  Write more coherent/less rambling reviews. :) 



Author's Response:

It's fate! Or kismet, or something. I need to write more, but maybe not more of this particular story! :)

(I loved this review. It's so stream-of-consciousness)

I love that in the end she simply can't help herself and I'm all sorts of anxious to see this play out on Thursday (at least in some fashion!)

Yay for you!  Write more!!
