A glimpse into the instant messaging history of Jim and Pam. Written with the intention of expanding on what we see on the show, as well as to tie up some loose ends. There will be a conversation for each episode through Season 3.

Between 'expired yogurt', the Office Olympics and The Job, this is one of the themes that gave the whole show continuity, realness and greatness. How does yogurt give a TV show greatness? Not sure, but it did!

Author's Response: I don't think I've ever gotten more excited for a piece of a disposable food container as I did for that gold yogurt lid in The Job

Wow, I just binge-read all 54 chapters and I truly felt transported to their lives. This is an amazing series. Your insight is SOOO spot on. You did a beautiful job filling in some cracks in totally 100% authentic, true colors. And yet, you made their story even more vivid. Although your notes at the end of the stories were interesting, and I may go back and read them more carefully later, I mostly found them distracting. I was just anxious to get back to what was happening next in their lives . . . which I felt would happen without me if I didn't get back to it right away! I feel like the recipient of a wonderful gift! Thank you!

Author's Response: It really makes me happy that readers are still finding and enjoying this story, it was really fun to write. I probably could stand to go back and trim down the story notes a bit, these were written a while ago and I was definitely falling into the trap of commenting and in places over-explaining rather than letting the writing stand on it's own. But I'll admit I'm torn since as I was writing this I also was starting what I consider a pretty significant phase of my life which was moving to Japan for a few years and reading the notes make me a little nostalgic. Maybe I'll consolidate my notes in one chapter and let the rest be, we'll see. But thanks so much for your kind words :-)

No, no, no, no, I didn't mean that the story notes shouldn't be there --- not at all. I'm just saying that I was so riveted by the stories that I didn't want to "leave" them. Love the story notes too! :)

What I love about this story is this: even though they are in the afterglow and sensuality of what was clearly amazing sex, that is nothing to Jim, compared to "I love you so much." And the power of “I never stopped loving you.” He paused. “Even when I wanted to.” is overwhelming. This is what I love about this story and JAM.

Summary: Season three ended beautifully. But from about Benihana Christmas on, I felt that there were many near misses on Jim and Pam actually having an honest conversation.

Here's another take on what might have happened if Jim had found Pam crying over him in Back From Vacation. I know, I know...done and redone. Just can't help myself. Spoilers for Back From Vacation.

Very nice. I especially liked "a new smile he noticed the very first night they had gone to dinner. That smile was something she never had given him before, and he had almost rarely had he seen it while she was with Roy. In that smile, he knew she was completely, blissfully happy to be with him."

I loved how Pam smiled at Jim in Fun Run.  Not only was she completely happy and in love, but she also looked at Jim with a sense of wonder and anticipation, like 'I wonder what amazing thing he's going to do next?  I can't wait for it to happen, whatever it is!'   It was definitely a completely new smile.

I LOVE The Office, because many parts of it are SOOOO GOOD. I'm a total JAM addict, and although I started out hating Michael (in fact, he's the reason I never watched the show until last year when my daughter made me hang in there for a few episodes), eventually they gave him some depth and empathy and vulnerability. They did the same with Dwight. But they made most of the rest of the characters pretty one-dimensional, including Toby and Kelly, PLUS they never really explained why Toby would tolerate the endless abuse. When you have such great, believable, rich characters portrayed by such fabulous actors, and then put Flat Stanleys next to them, it damages the whole show. So I really resented the presence of the one-dimensional, non-genuine characters like Kelly and Toby. Which is why I AM LOVING THIS STORY!!!! Finally, I can fill in the missing pieces, the black holes of the show with something real and believable and lovable!!! This is beautifully, patiently, lovingly written, and although it leaves the shows storyline in several places, it totally fits, explains and deepens their characters in ways that does not threaten the canon of the show. Wow! I am blown away. I love this! One more chapter to read!
