Note added to goal Buy a business suit
I'm calling this one done for a couple reasons:

I got a blazer a week or so ago, and own some decent skirts and such.

And also, I have a job now (thankfully) that is casual enough to allow us to dress casually (doubly thankful!).

With my next paycheck, I will have reached this goal! Having a job helps so much with this goal; go figure.

Rules for self include no 'edited for television'

I've been working on this goal on-and-off for years now, but since I'm so close now, I might as well set a goal to finish within these next 1001 days!

For anyone pursuing this goal, TCM and DVDs from your local library may be able to help you along (for cheap!).

Note added to goal Send a secret to PostSecret
I know some may not consider this, but about a month ago I submitted a valid secret through the PostSecret app, and received 19 hearts.
It may not be much, but it's a secret to me, and with that secret, I was able to connect with at least 19 other people in this world. So I'm marking this 'done' today on 31 December 2011.
