Well, it made me laugh

So yesterday I was in trial. The case ended in a settlement. But the part that made me laugh was when we, meaning my clients, myself, and my co-counsel, were walking to lunch.

There we were, walking down the hallway at the court house. Co-Counsel and I were loaded down like pack-mules with all our trial gear (we didn't have a courtroom at that point). When I saw another lawyer standing down the hallway whom I had not seen in a long time. It took me a minute to realize who it was, but then I realized it was a lawyer I used to work with back at my old firm of Working For Better Money.

I saw him. He saw me. And turned his back at me refusing to look at me until I had gotten on the elevator.

As soon as we were passed, I couldn't stop chuckling to myself. Co-Counsel asked me what was so funny. So I told her

Angrybell: "You see that guy who keeps turning his back to us in the black suit?"

C0-Counsel: "Yeah."

AB: "That's Mrs. Angrybell's ex-fiance."

C0-Counsel: "Oooooh scandal!"

So of course, once I got off the elevator I had to whip out my cellphone and call Mrs. Angrybell. I told her what happened. Her responses made me laugh.

Mrs. Angrybell: "Did he say anything to you?"

Angrybell: "No, just turned his back to me."

Mrs. Angrybell: "Well why didn't you go over and offer to show him pictures of Angrybabybelle?"

So since I didn't share with him, I figure I'll share with you all.



Isn't she cute?

She's gorgeous! And yeah, you took the classy move by not making him face you, but I'm with MrsAngryBell. Pics of AngryBabyBell would've been awesome.
