CAM is a Republican but we can be friends

CAM is short, I mean she is shorter than me which makes her real short. And she takes off her shoes in the office, which makes her even shorter.

She is a white blondie with big blue eyes. At the age of 38, married with two children, I can still see her as a little blond blue-eyed cute girl, riding her bicycle, curious about the world, growing up with real American values, whatever they were those days.

CAM is a Republican and she voted for McPain. (I am so happy I began to work in the same office as her after the elections are over so we don't have to discuss this issue anymore...)

CAM is nice. She is authentic and simple. She is a great lawyer, coming from a big firm, paying close attention to details, making sure she follows every rule under the code. She practices in a very lawyerly manner. She asked me if I know Judge Greene in LA? She is scared to appear before him or her.

I don't know Judge Greene but I know he or she is a human just like us, was in love before probably, has lost a loved one, gets hungry and does defecate regularly (hopefully). That makes the fear go away, knowing how much we have in common with Judge Greene.

You see, we are all one and the same. (Why is this so hard to grasp?)

CAM and I are very different though. I practice my own way and break every rule possible under the code, until of course I can't anymore. And no one scares me, not Judge Greene, not even Dick Cheney.(That by itself is a scary concept.)

Despite all this, I think we will be good colleagues. We still need nice lawyers like her around.
