KickA**
Was in a meeting today with my law partners - a rare occasion ever since I went into mission; the last time we all saw each other in the same room was Christmas dinner - and I came to a scary realization. I'm still the same cut-throat, street-smart, hot-tempered, adjective-proficient litigator at heart. The type that wouldn't hesitate to give a client a long sermon on quality and value of professional service, or to stick a four-inch stiletto up where it really hurts (funny, because my male partners are all frontliner-type frat men, but when irked, I'm more "violent" than any of them). Although I would probably never again exploit this "talent" for selfish gain...or so I hope. Surprisingly, I've still got it, after almost two years of not even crossing the threshold of any court. I don't know whether it should be cause for concern or celebration, but I'd feel sorry for anyone who'd be on the receiving end of my wrath-when-in-attorney-mode. But nah Kenneth, I'm not going back to practice anytime soon. I might kick some a** on the side, but I'll never make a living out of it...ya hear?

i think it's like riding a bike (or so they say because i can't bike in the first place). you never really lose the "touch". it's a talent. i have similar moments when i thought i would not be able to do something again because my current position does not require me to anymore. but then one day i have to do it again and... the magic is still there. i can imagine you cut-throat and all - i think it's an aspect of your self that makes you an even whole-r person. it's your warrior nature. we all have one. i guess the key thing is that you won't be making money out of it. :-)
Hehe, yeah the "Xena" in us is bound to come out sometime or another...not exactly a pretty sight, but boy does it feel GOOD. ;-)
