Wow, everyone, thank you for the great feedback.

Mouserocks: I hope you have recovered from your lol stitches.

Deadly Chakram: Thank you. No double reveal. Jimmy is perpetually obvlious.

Queen of Capes: Clark never stays miffed at Lois for long.

Framework, EvelynC: Thank you. More posting after I finish this reply.

Lynn: I'm sorry, Lynn, the conditioner is a trade secret. You have to trade covert Superman information for the name.

HappyGirl Thank you and I hope your enjoy Mayson's part in Part 2.

Bobbart: Yep, Jimmy's in deep doo-doo.

AntiKryptonite: Lois didn't really start to complain about Clark's disappearances until S2. But you caught me. laugh I didn't know when I was going to set it when I started writing. blush Hope it feels more mid-S2 in this next part. Yes, I love irony. And poor Mayson has drawn the short straw this fic. She would be the one to open Lois's eyes. How would Clark feel if he saw Lois's Clark Excuse List? Hmmm. I picture him rolling his eyes, shaking his head and groaning "Lo-is!" to himself. One of the reasons this story is all from Lois's POV.

Thank you all for the great feedback. I hope Part 2 doesn't disappoint.
