“Can you grab that for me?” she calls to him from the living room.
He picks up the phone and flips it open . “CJ’s phone… Oh,hey Donna…. Yeah, I think she’s around here somewhere...” he says evasively. He looks at her questioningly, but she beckons him over, “Oh, there she is… Here… say Hi to Josh for me.”
“Donna…how’s things?”
“Things are good….”
There is a pause.
“So C.J……When you said Josh wasn’t allowed to call you until the end of the month did you mean Josh… or the Whitehouse?”
She laughs. “Josh as the Whitehouse”
“How about me as the Whitehouse?”
“You as in Donna, the First Lady’s COS, or Donna, Josh’s partner in crime?”
She laughs. “East Wing Donna”
“Okay... just this once though…Any other time, and I’m going to need at least half an hour of personal gossip to pay for it.”
“Have you seen any of our briefings?”
“Ahh….. I might have caught a couple…”
He leans into the phone. “She’s seen ‘em all. It’s an addiction. And if we can’t get it under control in the next couple of weeks I’m cutting the cable with a pair of garden sheers and we’re going cold turkey.”
She waves him away.
“Have you heard what they’re saying…”
“As in…?”
“The blonde babes in the East Wing. I mean, they haven’t actually used the word bimbos, but it’s hovering there”
“Well, so are bombshell and bikinis… but I get your point. Annabeth’s great, but you do all have a certain look.”
“Anything short of dying our hair or pulling PhD’s out of our butts?”
“Oh, God, I’d love to see it….” she laughs.
“No seriously C.J. We’ve got to do something. The intimation is we’re using sex to control the nation.”
“Well, you are aren’t you?” she grins.
“C.J.!!!”
“Oh shit… you’re not on a Whitehouse phone are you?”
“Of course not… I’m not a moron!”
“Hey there’s a good line.. .you could all have T shirts made!”
“Help me out. Please.”
“Okay… well, this first thing sounds stupid, but it will solve about sixty percent of it.”
“Shoot”
“Tell Annabeth to wear her glasses at every briefing and announcement. Get the first lady to leave her contacts at home for the next six months worth of photo ops. Find her some stylish glasses that aren’t too heavy duty. Thin, delicate… something pretty. You…. ooh, you’re going to hate this…”
“What?”
“Either cut your hair to about your jaw line or wear it pulled back into some kind of sophisticated style… no long straight tresses….. and find some reading glasses, whether you need them or not.”
“Are you serious?”
“Absolutely.”
“It’s not me that’s going to hate it….”
“It’s Josh.” She fills in. “Go for a bun or a chignon… and you know… he might like the glasses.”
“C.J.!”
“Over the line?”
“Just a little….But seriously…You really think that’s going to do anything?”
“Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses…”
“Huh?”
“Just a quote….but the point is…. Glasses change people’s perception… it’s been proven… it makes people think you’re smarter…”
“But that’s so not true!”
“You know that, and I know that, but it doesn’t really matter, perception is everything…. Now, ready for the next step?”
“Go ahead.”
