Still awesome, Mary!!  The ending was hilarious  Clark and Lois are just being ridiculous (which is fine, by me!!!). You have a big talent for comedy. Can't wait to see where this is heading! And, if you run out of Muse, I have some spare here  In any case, don't you dare stop writing this!!! See ya real soon (I hope), AnnaBtG.

Oh Lord. Clark, you're being ridiculous!!!! That's all I have to say. Plenty of boneheadedness (so not a word) to go around!  JD

This is truly one of the most original ideas ever - and a challenge you are meeting royally.  Everytime I think I know where you're going, you send me spinning in another direction. I honestly had no idea she was still considering Clark an option!!!  I love the humor, the dialogue, the introspection. I could go on but just let me say that you truly astound me.

LOL, another great part! I hope Superman tells her he's Clark before they... erm... get started...  --Wanda

 Are you serious?????? They're going to make a baby??????? /thud There was something casual about how they decided on a date... "Sure, the 16th. Seems like a good day to make a baby with Superman, the old fashioned way, changing your relationship with him forever. Yep, the 16th it is." LOL. And on a different topic, /me packs her bags to Florida to kick some ugly gremlin butt. You just hang in there! *hops on a plane* Julie <g>

This is just great! I love the story idea and how you fill it with lots of great, funny and hilarious details. YAY, Clark is still an option  I think he should start working on those mind-reading skills of his... Oh, and muses like chocolate. Well, at least mine does. So, maybe you can convince your muse to stay, if you offer her some -um, make that a lot of- candy bars. Chocolate might also help her fight the gremlin... Just an idea  ~Julia

This is great!
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.

You really liked this part? Yay!  I was afraid it wouldn't be up to par; then as the hours went by and I didn't see any feedback (I take it the boards are quiet on weekends?) I thought "oh no, they hated it so much they can't think of anything nice to say, so they're not saying anything!" Let me take this moment to say how much I appreciate *any* feedback, even critizism. But I'm glad you like it! Right now I'm holding the gremlin at bay with the broom. He's nibbling at the bristles, though, and I'm not sure if that bodes well. Hurry up, Julie! And now, because I can't think of what else to say and I'm insane with sleep deprivation, I shall end this post with a little dancing emoticon.

This is very funny stuff. Also poignant. I can see how they can be so awkward about it - and it's easy for them to not touch, and be almost business like because they are feeling awkward about it.
And in the end - they will be forced ot deal with this awkwardness - because - on the 16th - all bets (and clothes, and capes) come off.
Wonder if she will catch his comment bout being able to do it (i.e. he obviously hasn't yet, because he thinks he ought to be able to do it)
Hope her endo doesn't cause discomfort, because that would kill him.
IS she going to spend the next 2 weeks thinking "Ohmygodohmygodohmygod...", almost dreading the 16th?

Ooh, I am so, so sorry for dawdling with part...um, what part are we on again?  No, it isn't the gremlin this time, Julie; he's snivling in the corner and rubbing his sore little behind. Y'see, this past week I've been taking an art class. It lasts about 3 hrs, (not counting the at least 1/2 hr it takes to get there), and when I get home I have to keep my puppy distracted so he doesn't chew up the house! Grr.  (dandy new graemlins btw, whoever's responsible ) Today is the last day of class, however, so I might have more time/energy to work on it. Of course, I'm also having trouble with writer's block, but that may just be because my muse is exhausted from all those hours of trying to teach the puppy to play fetch. Go get it, boy! Go on, go get it! Hey, where're you going?! Get back here!!! NO, Don't chew on that!!!!!!! Would you like to hear the rest of my excuses? I've prepared a list... I'll get back to writing soon, honest.
