in ten years i'll be about 29/30 i'll be in the process of working my way up to partner of a law firm

I see myself engaged - maybe a newlywed BUT no kids just yet. I will most likely be living in chicago because i love that city to death, probably downtown chicago, in one of those gorgeous apartments overlooking Lake michigan (when the kids come we're moving to the 'burbs) I will be serving on city councils and boards, and very active in the Dem. party, so that eventually, when I decided to run for the Senate or House, i have my name out there and plenty of local political experience!
Plenty of travel behind me and in the future is a must - I love going to new places!
