Okay, I'm not really even a Kelly fan, but I love this. I related to this so much, it's a little scary. Fabulous job!

Thank you! :) I really like your icon, by the way.

This made me soo happy. I love stuff where the girls hang out, and I have no idea why I do, but this just hit the spot. All the little details are what make this great: Kelly not knowing what Ryan's favorite movie is, the indie music on the speakers, Pam looking for a camera, the appletini drawing... it's all so Kelly and Pam and everything that they are when they're mixed together. Simply beautifully written. Gorgeous. Well done!

Thank you! Your opinion means a lot - I'm a fan of your fics (especially "Winners, Losers & How to Play the Game"). This made my night!

Thanks! So I'm guessing you're a fan of the female to female interaction too?

Yes - it seems more authentic that way, probably because romantic relationships shift so much (in life, and particularly on TV shows), whereas friendships are more reliable -- so when I see happy Jim/Pam or happy Dwight/Angela or happy any-other-coupling, there's always that nagging fear that it'll be blown up two seconds later. That, and the friendship dynamic is often much more fun (if much harder to write). Wow, I got really long-winded there, didn't I? :P

This is so great! I love fic where girls are just hanging out being girls, especially Kelly and Pam. I like that even though Kelly forgot about the girls' night, Pam showed up and stayed anyway, and that she brought appletini mix, and her drawing of the martini glass and how it made Kelly happy. And Darryl/Kelly! I enjoyed this so much!
