Thoughts? Concerns? Queries about whether or not I had amnesia?

Elle, welcome back!!!! And I loved this. Giggled most of the way through it! Starting here: Lois' expression darkened a moment later, and Clark began to wonder if the person on the other end of the line realized the longer they tried to reason with a Lois Lane hell bent on being right, the closer they stepped to needing a new job. "Excuse me? Haven't you ever heard of the customer always being right? I want to speak with your manager!"  And you've got their banter down perfectly: "Not yet, but give it five years, and I'll probably be popping an aspirin every time a breaking story comes in and consulting my therapist about my stress level once a week. And I'll stick my nose in where it doesn't belong and - "
"Lois, you do that already."
"I do?" Lois' eyes widened. "Do I pry too much into your life, Clark? I do, don't I?"
Clark fought back a grin. "Lois, you're a reporter. You have three Kerth awards because you're nosey." Poor Lois! Will Lois and Clark ever manage to have a normal wedding?  Loved the last few paras, by the way. Can't wait for more! Wendy 
Just a fly-by! *waves*

Wendy already nabbed all my favorite lines.  So I'll just say ditto, and note that there are only 3 more days in January.  Welcome back, Elle! 
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

Elle, this is just great  Just like Wendy I had to giggle all the way through. Poor Lois, she's at the edge to sheer madness. Please let them have a perfect, romantic wedding with the result that they are actually married, ok? Oh, and that ASAP! Julia

Hi, Welcome back!

Don't like Luthor, unfinished, untitled and crossover story, and people that promises and don't deliver. I'm getting choosy with age.

Cute story.
You've definitely nailed an anxious and stressed Lois.
As was pointed out, there are only three days left in January.

Just caught up and I have to say you are right on the money with this. I can practically 'hear' Lois' voice. Can't wait for more! ~Liz
Lois: Can I go?
Clark: No.
Lois: Oh come on, Clark, why do we go through this? We both know I’m going to go.
Clark: Then why do you ask?
Lois: I’m trying to be nice.

Elle, Clark knew to tread lightly when the first thing he heard when entering the newsroom was a frustrated Lois Lane. So glad he's back. And will Lois! I loved Lois on the phone to the Wedding Invitation people. Loriel
