I think I mentioned that I had a nice review just before leaving for Reno. I deliberately neglected to mention just how nice is was because I was waiting for word to become official.

Now it has. I am now a partner of my law firm. This is a moment I've been awaiting for the entire 21 years of my professional life and it feels every bit as good as I thought it would. --Bob

That's fantastic - It has to feel fantastic to achieve a goal that has been out there for so long a time.
