I'm turning 30 this year, a single gal in L.A. I really enjoy reading well written fan fiction like that found here on MTT. Jim and Pam are wonderful characters to play with because they have so many flaws, but are still enjoyable and nice people.

I know I do fluff, but this is fluffier probably than any fluff I've ever written. I think I've sickened myself...but it is what it is. I'm sure lots of you are familiar with the "old navy song" -- well Ingrid Michaelson sings it and it totally inspired this sugary bit of autumn spun fluff! Enjoy and make sure to brush and floss afterwards!

Goodbye Girl reference! Rock on! At least I hope it is. Anyway, it is indeed fluff but good fluff!
Author's Response: Aw man, Crystalized I almost hate to cop to this because you were so excited and I LOVE when people say Rock on...but alas, I didn't not mean it as a goodbye girl reference...in fact -- I don't even know the reference you are referring to....ugh, I'm feeling so sad! lol. Anyway, let me know which reference you are referring to! School me. Thanks so much for the feedback!!!

I am here with the schooling (HA!) First of all, you need to rent or Netflix or whatever the heck 1977's "The Goodye Girl." It's good for your romantic comedy soul. http://imdb.com/title/tt0076095/
Second, without giving to much away, there are major plot points ivolving late night guitar serenades and courtship/coupledom. So that's what I thought it was!
Thanks again for the story!

Yay! I was seriously thinking about this story just yesterday - so glad to see an update.
"She would have stop by the bookstore for a “how to flirt with your best friend that you may love” book."
Love this line!
Author's Response: I liked that line too, I'm glad it worked well in the story. I've felt that way before, like could someone please tell me how to do this??? Thanks for sticking with me, and thanks for your review as always. I really appreciate your kind words.

This is really well done. I think the inner monologues are spot-on. Can't wait to read more!
Author's Response: Thank you very much for leaving such a nice review. I really try to get the characterization right, so it means alot to me that you feel that I did just that. Thanks again.

Wonderful chapter! I love this paragraph:
"She looked up to meet his eyes, her gaze very honest and open, so much so that he forgot to breathe. He could tell from his desk that something was wrong, but up close, he knew that not only was something very wrong, somehow it did have to do with him."
Author's Response: Thank you! I like the idea that they both know so much about each other, even without speaking. Most of their friendship and relationship seems unspoken. I'm glad you like it, and thanks for the terrific review.
Summary: This is another alternate ending story from season three, beginning just before Phyllis' Wedding and ending at Business School.
Many thanks to Beeswax for her advice and encouragement.
I still own nothing, not The Office, not Jim and Pam, and nothing affiliated with TV or Scranton. I am, however, getting a new laptop for Christmas, which is why I'm purging this one of this story before the holiday. On that happy note, thanks for reading!
