***SPOILER ALERT***
I just finished Season 5 of the Office, bringing me fully up to date with the series. It was one heck of a quick ride, ploughing through all those episodes.
Hah, I’m trying to get my words out properly here but I just can’t do it. I’m not in a very writer-y mood. Here’s the skinny of what I’m trying to say: Pam ends up finding out that she’s pregnant in the very last moments of the last episode and the way Jim and her react together is nothing but sweet. And I don’t mean the sweet as in like, “dude, that is so rad!” I mean, sweet like a second grader offering his female crush a handful of picked dandelions at recess. The way Jim reacts is nothing short of how I’ll react and whenever I see stuff like that, I freak out on the inside and just get lost in my own daydreams. That’s why I loved Away We Go and Marley & Me. That’s why I got caught up in HIMYM so quickly and even the Office. When I can see myself in something, I get attached quickly. When I see Harriet and I in something, I get attached even quicker. And that ending to Season 5 of the Office was just a smile and a half for me. I think I squealed a tiny bit out of joy.
Things are really tough right now… that’s all I’m going to say. But that big picture is still nice and bright. When I see my wedding day… or the mother of my children… or just the rest of my life flying by… There’s still only one person who absolutely has to be there through it all. And no matter what we’re going through right now, I just know she’s going to be there in the end.
Her handwriting on my mug even says so.
