Author's note: Well, this summer I became obsessed with WW, and the same day I went back to school the WB went back to showing the PILOT! I was so psyched to finally being able to see the 1st season, that I didn't care it is on daily at midnight, meaning I won't get much sleep for my classes.
So, I wanted to write something about the WW since day one, and here we go: Donna's diary. I know this has been done before, but I hope some of you enjoy a kind of post-ep fic that will be written as I go through the series. Let's see how far I get, because I will have papers to write for college and so on.
Also, this might get a little confusing if you don't remember very well these episodes, but I really wanted it to be Donna's diary, and I thought sometimes she would retell the events of the day, but sometimes she would just want to rant, like we all do some days.
Finally, for some episodes that don't have much material of Donna's thoughts I will just put two or three days in the same chapter. Some days, like the first, get a chapter of their own.
That's it. Sorry for long note, I had to explain myself. Of course I don't own a thing! And please review, I'm still pretty new at this. Thanks!
(The Pilot)
DAY ONE
Today was absolutely one of those days. I mean, the kind of day when I become more of a baby-sitter/mother rather than an assistant in the messy life of my so called boss: Josh Lyman.
I was really worried for him throughout the day, and he sure could tell because I did something that seemed rather unlikely to ever happen in that office; yeah, I brought a cup of coffee to the Deputy Chief of Staff of the White House.
What? It's not a crime! I know for a fact that 97 of all the assistants to senior staffers in government offices actually bring coffee in a daily basis to their bosses. And don't dare doubt my facts! Trust me, I know these stuff, though I don't know the percentage of assistants that get their bosses to change their shirts when they are in their worst whining phases.
Anyhow…Josh did something really dumb that he often does, and he did it on t.v.: he let the words out of his mouth without thinking twice. It really got him into trouble, and I was terrified that he could lose his job, that I could lose him.
Ok, ok, that didn't sound right. But he is my boss, and despite ALL the disadvantages, I really like working for him, and even as much as I love CJ and Sam, I wouldn't want to be with anyone else.
Fine, I'm sounding too mushy for my own taste, and I don't want this diary to turn into a bunch of fluff. Actually, let me rephrase that, I WON'T let this turn into something corny, or overly dramatic, it's supposed to help me relax about the stress of the day.
And speaking of that, in the end he kept his job, everything's ok.
Tomorrow's goal: find out what's up with Sam, I know Josh and him are hiding something, and they should be aware that it won't be long till I find out. Just so I can offer my help, of course!
Now: SLEEP!
