Happy Office Day!!!!!

Here's my plan for the day:

6 am-7 am-
wake up, feed the cat, get on the computer before anyone else wakes up,
help to get the little Beeswaxes ready

7 am-4pm-
Go to work and spend the day with a bunch of Grade Ones (which can be
very much like spending time with Michael and Dwight)

4pm-5pm-
Go to the gym and try and work out my anxiousness and nervousness about
JAM

5pm-6pm-
pick up little Beeswaxes from daycare, eat dinner

6pm-7pm-
try to multitask by giving the little Beeswaxes a bath along with checking this
thread

7pm-8pm-
try to convince little Beeswaxes that even though it's still light out, it's bed
time (because it's Office night)

8pm-8:42pm-
try to calm the butterflies in my stomach by reading fanfic and watching
fanvids

8:42pm-9:30pm-
Soak up all of the amazingness that Beach Games will be and really try
to live in the moment of the 2nd to last Office ep of S3

9:30pm-11:42pm-
Come here and freak out/gush about the greatness of the ep

11:42pm-12:30am-
Watch west coast feed of Beach Games and relive the magic

As per every Thursday morning, I like to start my day with a hearty bowl of JAM wedding dreaming.

So....Tonight's the night!!!!!

I just know tonight's the night where Pam will confess all of her feelings to Jim. He will sweep her into his arms and propose to her right there. Jim will have already broken up with Karen earlier on in the day because she doesn't like cheeseburgers and he can't live his life with someone that crazy.

Anyhoo, Jim will propose, Pam will accept and they will decide they can't wait another minute to be married and so they decide to get married on the beach. Pam will switch clothes with Kelly because she will be most likely be wearing a white dress (she looks really good in white) and Jim will just wear whatever he's wearing because, hey, that guy just can't look bad.

Once again, I predict that Creed has some kind of religious certification and he will marry our sweet James and Pamela. Michael will give Pam away, Dwight and Angela are best man and maid of honour, respectively. Everyone else will join Kevin in his Bon Jovi tribute band and they will rock the night away as the happy couple enjoy their first few hours as a married couple.

Ahhh, I can hardly wait!

^^^Beeswax, I love your schedule for today and also your JAM wedding scenario for tonight. Ahhhh if only.....

This is fun. Here's my JAM day schedule:

6:30 AM Woke up and went for a 4 mile run, listened to JAM playlist on run. (I know too slow and sappy, yet it is envigorating for some reason! Also, the Cheeseburger song is great for running )

8:15 AM Got kids off too school.

9:00 AM Sat down at computer to work and of course went to MB first....I'm still here.

Blah, blah, blah, blah (you don't really care about the rest of my boring day, do you?)

7:35 PM I'll be sitting on couch with glass of wine, phones turned off, kids in basement playing, husband out with friends.......JAM TIME!!!! I hope!

8:20 - 8:25 PM Hopefully sitting on couch with mouth hanging open, happy tears in eyes.

8:30 PM Get kids in bath and to bed.

9:00 PM Hit the MB with all of you.

10:00 PM Re-watch BG w/hubby when he gets home. Me laughing and swooning and drooling with excitement; him looking at me like I'm crazy and saying "Michael is such a freak", Jim and Pam completely under his radar.

10:30 PM Back on MB

12:00 AM Maybe try to get some sleep, but will hopefully be too excited!!!

Only 10 more hours!!!!

Oh this is funn and is making my stomach flip-flop agian!! You know I read fanfic yesterday and every time I read Jim kisses pam my stomach twitters.. see it did it agian!! That HAS to be a good sign!!

okay! lets see what am I going to do!

10- woke up! Hey I had exams I am allowed to sleep in

10:30-1:00-take shower( dress like Pam!!!), go to friends new house and help her unpack, all the while thinking of Jim helping Pam unpack her things when she moves into his house

1:00-3:00- do chores, and maybe even go running to get all the stress out!!

3:00-6:00- I have no idea! I am going to run and play and be as free as a bird!! I will be thinking of JAM.. A lot

6:00-9:00-eat dinner with friends, and thier parents

9:30-10:30- Wath beach Games with happy tears in my eyes, me screaming at the top of my lungs, me dancing around in circles!! I am thinking I am going to have tea, eat jellybeans and have girlled chesse.

10:30- till god knows when- come on the MB scream and shout and do all things that I do when I am just to excited to talk!! And watch the episode a thousand times over!!

ekk I am sooo nervous and excited!! This day will be the best day ever!! (so far until the next Thrusday! )

Or not.

I fully expect that none of the above rantings will come to pass.

Trained trauma support personnel will available once the episode airs. No whining please.

I am at work; I have 3 more cases to do meaning 3 more people to put under anesthesia for their various surgeries and I am thinking about what Pam's gonna say!!! Think of it everyone, think of how much total denial she has been in for so so long, and now tonight, she may finally, admit or at least broadly hint, at something to Jim! I really want it to be something that only he will "get", but that it be a loud and clear message.

What else today? Clean cat box, cook supper, workout, shower, PJ's, start on bottle of wine....put on the end of "Earl", start bouncing up and down with excitement....

Can't wait to jump on the boards afterwards!

Am wearing my hair Pam style and hope that PH is too! It was our good luck talisman last week and am not taking any chances. Remember people, there's no reason to go off the deep end if it doesn't go our way tonight.

Okay, be careful out there.

Great day in the morning! Its Thursday! Yippeee!!

So my day so far:
6am-Baby Trouble awoke, fed her, went back to sleep
8:30 - Toddler Trouble woke up, no one goes back to sleep after that
10:30-MB! I gotta see what kind of excitement is going on here!

Rest of my day:
Noon - lunch
1pm - grocery shopping (nightmares-a-million ensue)
3pm - naptime for the Trouble twins, Mom gets a chance to finish S3 marathon, gets on MB!
5pm- naptime over, snack time starts, start cooking dinner for hubby and friends
6pm - take Trouble twins to my parents, cause its office night and I need a babysitter!
6:30 - friends coming over for dinner and Office!
7:30 - head to the bathroom so I dont have to go during the show
7:40 - get comfy in my chair, with my glass of wine, tell my husband and his friend to shut up or leave, while my friend and I gush and swoon and barely contain our excitement.
8:20 - take a deep breath, sigh, and GUSH over the awesomeness that will most definitely be tonight's episode
9pm- escort my friends out, pick up my kids, put them to bed and then at
10pm-rewatch Beach Games over and over while on the MB!

This is my favorite day!

AHHH!

I'm so excited but nervous!

I don't know how I'm going to get through work today.

What are the rules for delirium? I am expecting Pam to tell Jim tonight in terms plain and clear. I am not sure what words she will use, but they will hit home. That will be enough to make me unbelievably happy.

I want to separate this from Jim's reaction. I say this because poor Jim's head is going to explode. As odd as it sounds I think his first reaction will be anger. "What do you want me to do with that information now? Where were you a year ago? How do you expect me to react to that?" (Which in not entirely unlike Pam's reaction last year.) Next he is going to shut down, and will probably even try to take cover behind Karen (Pam and Roy anyone.)

The good news. This is not the season finale. Jim will need to process this information, and by the end of next weeks episode he will let us know that he has to acknowledge the truth in front of him; that he is completely in love with Pam.

I think Karen is going to be key in knocking some sense into Jim's head. She knows Jim's feelings for Pam, but that has been acceptable because Jim has convinced her that Jim believes Pam has no interest in him. With that facade ripped away, and the revelations from Women's Appreciation, Karen isn't going to put up with this situation, and she is going to get the heck out of Scranton. Jim can choose to follow her, or he can stay in Scranton.

So by the end of the season we get an honest Pam. This will trigger Karen to honestly assess the situation and Karen will force Jim to choose. Jim has been listless this entire season. He is going to get hit from two directions in rapid succession. It is going to be a rocky two episodes for poor Jim, so please be gentle with him. I am sure he will do many things we don't like, but I am certain by the end of the season the road to JAM will be wide open.

Ahahaha, that sounds like me and my hubby, exactly! I always watch it before he comes home, but he doesn't know that--shhh. Then he always asks me how I can turn a comedy into a soap opera... like I have any control over Jim and Pam! I wish!

So here's my day:

8:00am - Woke up with the tot.

9:00am-10:00am - Came here to catch up on the MB.

11:00am-12:00pm - Took tot to the park as promised.

12:00pm - Came to the realization that I AM in love with Jim I guess I was in denial?
12:30pm - Went to the grocery store.

1:00pm-5:00pm - No idea what to do, I'm going crazy here! Obviously revisit the MB...

5:00pm-8:00pm - Go to my father-in-law's house as is customary for Thursdays.

8:00pm - Act like the morning (all day) sickness is awful and I'm really tired and need to go home... because I don't trust my DVR for tonight's epi! It hasn't failed me yet, but my cable DID go out a few times yesterday.

8:20pm - Get home and get comfy on the couch and think JAM thoughts.

8:40pm - Squee! Watch the episode WITH hubby and point out all the happy JAMminess while he rolls his eyes and laughs at Michael and Dwight.

10:00pm - Rewatch and come to MB to read everyone else's thoughts.

Me too. Whatever Jim's reaction, I am really looking forward to Pam finally fully becoming her fancy new self and telling Jim her true feelings (I don't know if this will happen I'm just really hoping it does). It's going to be such a beautiful (potentially heartwrenching) moment.

I think that is what is going to happen, too. I'm trying to prepare myself up for it, too. I'm building up my defenses.



We are on the same page here.

Yep. Still reading the same page.



*shakes head* Yep, yep, yep. I think so, too. And I'm going to try my darnest to NOT get too angry at Jim, but as a Pam fan first and foremost..it's going to be hard. (twss!)

Which fanfic?? I am looking for new stuff. Recomendations?

On the website the time for the office is WEIRD. At work here on the west coast we are all freaking out. Does anyone know what time it starts??


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Po8Nc0axMDU - Okay, I must say that is my favorite one, ever! I am going to have to search for him dancing with Conan...I've never seen that. And when he is at the computer in some big office place...what is that? So good. Going to watch again. Oh, and the last picture is a catch your breathe!!

At the end of the video it gives you the website that you can find all those pictures/video clips... I think it was www.johnkrasinski.fan-sites.org? Anyway, you can download the Conan clip and other interviews as well... along with all the yummy pictures.

Both Earl and The Office are supersized again this week, so it looks like it is starting 10 minutes later than it would normally in your time zone. Here in the East Coast, it starts at 8:40. W. Coast is the same, I think.

I have searched the JK fansite and I can't find that last picture of him sitting with LONG hair looking straight at the camera with elbows on knees. That is so freakin' cute. ANYONE?

Couldn't find it either. I have spent the last 20 minutes looking too!! He is YUMMMY!!! I feel like I am in 7th grade...which by the way, when I was, I had a crush on Michael J. Fox...you know the Back to the Future version!! What a dork!

The only thing I know to do is to ask the person who made the video where they got it from. (I was wondering where it came from too )

I'm so giddy! Less than four hours! Eeek!

TOTALLY, I think I saw it in the theatre 7 times. I still think he is cute. But lovin' JK, if you know what I mean.


Do you want to ask?

Who here bets that the promo happens in the last 2 minutes and then we are left hanging (ourselves, literally) for the next 7 days???????

I'm new to the boards. You all make me feel so much more "normal". I can't find anyone at work who watches the show. Thanks. I needed some JAM therapy!

YEAH! Welcome aboard. Just one word to help you feel good about yourself here...

SEARCH.

That keeps you off of many people's hit lists.

Happy Office Day.

A warm Message board welcome to PB&JAM!



I WISH!!!!! *heavy sigh*

Next season they will have a baby, find out that Creed is not really certified in Pennsylvania and have to get married all over again.

Now there's a wedding I would LOVE to go to.

Welcome to the boards!!! It is nice to have other crazies to obsess with...not everyone understands... I don't even understand myself!!

Oh Jazzman! We all know that is the furthest thing that would happen. It's all a bit of fun!

I think we all know Jim is probably not going to react well to Pam's "honesty". I think we may see a CN freak out all over again. I'm fully prepared for a Jim breakdown.



Yes! Pam being honest and actually admitting feelings for Jim is what I'm hoping for. At this point, how Jim reacts is not my concern. I just love seeing Pam turn into an amazing, honest and courageous woman.

I know my wedding won't happen. I just like to daydream.



OMG!!!! I was completely in love with MJF! I'm so excited to find someone else who was too! I must have seen Back to the Future 100 times as a teen. Ahhh, memories.

I am honoured to know someone who loves MJF and JK!



Welcome!

This is the place to let all your JAM hang out.

Enjoy the ep tonight!

Has anyone else's stomach been in knots all day? I feel all nervous inside like I am the one who is going to have to confess my love to Jim tonight.

I'm pretty sure we are not gonna get a proper dose of JAM till next week, but even so I am just soooo proud of Pam right now. She has come such a long way this season... YOU GO GIRL!!!! Three cheers for Pam! I have realized this season that I am more of a Pammer than a Jammer. I just want her to be happy (and I think Jim will do the trick).

Even if she doesn't get the answer she wants right away at least she will have the relief of getting things off her chest. I was in a similar situation a few years ago. I ultimately got rejected, but I just remember feeling a great sense of relief despite all the heart-ache. Its hard to keep all those feelings inside for that long. Of course Jim is different than that guy and he will come around. I have absolutely no doubt about that right now.

2 hours and 45 minutes... I bought a mini-bottle of champagne to celebrate... just like Jim.

I'm a little confused about what time tonight's episode actually starts. The main page says 8:42, but the promo said Earl was 1 hour tonight. Does anyone know for sure?

I plan on watching Earl anyway, but I'm still at work and have tons of stuff to do before The Office starts, and might have to use some of 'Earl's' time. Once it starts all bets are off for the rest of the night for me. I won't be able to get anything done.

BTW, good luck with the bets. I hope both PH and QOE win. That would be extra awesome (and I really don't want to see the Karen sigs... even for 3 days).

Two and a half hours to go and it's killing me. It's raining here and I'm concerned about two possible scenarios tonight. 1) My satellite goes out, I have no tv antenna and have to wait until tomorrow to download episode from itunes (don't think I could handle that); or 2) My satellite stays on, but is interrupted every two minutes (only during the Office, not during commercials because we have an EXTREMELY overzealous weatherman who seems to secretly like it when we have bad weather b/c it means he gets more air time) and if I only get snippets here and there and ultimately have to wait to see the entire episode tomorrow, I will officially be calling in a bomb threat to my local NBC station.

So, do you think you guys can go ahead and start the bail fund, or you can wait until the offical "Obsessed Office fan arrested for bomb threat on local station for pre-emption of recent episode" announcement on CNN. If you guys don't see any posts from me in the next few days, I'll be at the Lee County Jail, Tupelo, Mississippi, so you'll know where to send the money. *crosses finger and prays to Thor himself that the weather will blow over in the next two hours*

Okay, I'm really gonna need therapy. I have to miss The Office tonight! My family is driving up to NY for a wedding, and I probably won't get to see it until the 16th (my birthday!). I don't know what to do! If anyone can help me not die of lack of Office, I would apreciate it.

That is cool!! Yes, I had a magazine picture of him hanging in my locker.... Maybe we love them because they are both funny...and it doesn't hurt that they're cute too!! AHHH!!! About 1:40 minutes till show time!! Can't wait!

Sorry you won't be able to see the new ep. If it makes you feel better, there will always be a recap on the main Office page to catch you up, and I'm sure *everyone here will be more than happy to give you an update. Hope the welding goes well, and be sure to have a slice of Sbarro's pizza for me while you're in NY!

I am using the same kind of mind control that Jim uses to send the sunny weather we're having here in Ontario (Canada) over to Mississippi.

1 hour and 37 minutes to go!!!!!!

I just know this is going to be a red-letter episode!!!!!!

Beeswax,
I just rewatched this video...I just loved the music and the pics of Jim/John and remembering all the episodes! But as I was watching, my stomach knotted up in fear, anticipation and a tad bit of dread about tonights episode.

I am soooooooooooooooooooo nervous!!! I don't want Pam or Jim to get hurt...Karen can throw herself in front of a train... no, not really. But I just am sick. What is wrong with me? Why does it matter?

By the way, my little rocks (sedimentarys) are going to bed early tonight too...hubby is out of town so I am on my own. I have kettle corn and diet coke as a treat (no champage for me...the kids will make me miserable tomorrow) and am truly going to enjoy this episode. Maybe more than once!!! Pam Beesley, give the people what they want!!!!!

I woke up this morning, & my first thought was "It's Thursday!" Woohoo. I'm Mountain time, so I've still got 2hrs 30 min. But I'm considering waiting to watch until all the kiddos are asleep so I can concentrate. hehehe

Ultimately, before this series ends (Heaven Forbid), James has to buy a house for Pam that has a terrace where she can plant her flowers.

But for tonight: GO PAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marked arm,
It took me a second to understand your name, but I get it and laughed hysterically. And that episode was such a heartbreaking one with Jim refusing Pam's present and then talking with Michael on the couch (first about the marked arm and then about the rebound...

Also, I must say I have stared at your signature picture for the last five minutes. And I keep waiting for him to wake up and smile at me. *going back to stare and wait*

I...too...also feel...as...you do.

I think we just need to go into tonight's episode thinking that Pam is going to get the JAM ball rolling. We also should prepare ourselves for some heartache. Jim is our wildcard tonight. If Pam does lay it all on the line, then we should let our hearts soar for her because she will have come so far!

We also have an hour long ep next week in which Jenna said would cover a lot of awesome ground. I have no idea what that ground is and whether it really will be awesome, but I'm going to chase that feeling.

I am on the edge of my seat! I am going to take a shower and prepare!!!! Will be back tonight to discuss!!!

OK, I will chase it too. Hope I don't get winded!!

I have a feeling this episode is gonna be ranked up there with Booze Cruise and Casino Night when it comes to pivotal Jamtasticness. Its been a while since we had one of these (not since The Return?) and I'm not sure my weakened JAM-heart can take it. I might go into cardiac arrest.

Tonight is a good night for Jam... I can feel it. All the signs are there. Today I got stuck in a traffic JAM. Then I happened to have a peanut butter and JAM sandwich for dinner. Now I am camped out in the living room in my paJAMas waiting to watch some JAM on t.v. Coincidence? I think not.

Here's more proof:

I was sitting next to someone who just had to JAM to some music I did not understand.

My friend called and said she was going to JAMaica.

My stapler got JAMmed.

I wanted some JAMbalaya for dinner.

My baby has some toe JAM.

I don't think it's coincidence!

One of my favs:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=nLge0Uxd4Ec

60 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know this is random, but I am looking for a really angsty JAM video montage. Can anyone here point me in the direction of one?

Someone on another chat is looking for one. Don't ask me why.

This one always gets me.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcVv5h7OoXI

Season three has been all about the angst! I don't want any more angst.

Bring back that lovin feelin!

Hi everyone,

I'm back, wine glass in hand, ready for this awesome episode...I'm so excited!
Although I don't expect much from Jim tonight, I am really psyched for our Pam tonight. To follow with our longstanding basketball analogy:

The ball's been in Pam's court since CN. She has spent all this past year learning the game, learning the moves and the plays. She's made plenty of mistakes, but she's learned a lot. She's lost the ball out of bounds, she's turned the ball over, she had several good chances to take a shot, but didn't. She even took herself out of the game and sat on the bench for a brief period! But now she's ready to make a play. Last week she was dribbling calmly at center court, sizing up the defense, analyzing their weaknesses. She feels strong, ready. Tonight she will start slowly, then charge down that center lane and take her best shot! And we will all get to watch her!

Pam, I am so proud of you!!

Wow, I like that analogy!!! I hope Jim hasn't lost the love of the game and Pam scores a three point jump shot!!!!!

Its probably been posted in here before, but I thought I would put it up in honor of the beach trip we are about to embark on.

I am way too freaked out right now. Is it normal to have this much anxiety about a TV show?

Viva La Jam!!

JAMMIN'

Ooh, yeah! All right!

Did I hear that RJs pilot did not get picked up?

I would not worry about it too much. Jenna said that the writers have already decided the direction the show will go next season.
