Last night I was in full 1970s costume that I had sewn this weekend. I went for hair and makeup at David’s Salon because why not? Might as well have fun and be beautiful at the same time.

I loved my hair and makeup so much that I took a lot of photos. I finally changed the profile photos of my FB and IG accounts. 🤣 I got my money’s worth.

When there was an open-mic opportunity, I sang Roxette’s It Must Have Been Love with the band hired for the party. The chairman of the company hosting the party said he didn’t know I could sing well. He just knew me as a reporter who trailed him for almost 20 years. 🤣

He was in such a good mood that night despite finishing a board meeting so late into the night. I was able to ask him questions that are discloseable to the stock exchange! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It really helped that I made an effort with my costume and hair and makeup. He was in a festive mood.

As I told fairy gaymother K, life is too short not to indulge in frivolous things such as going all out on costume parties.

He told me, you really are in a better place now, aren’t you?

The last time we saw each other was last Friday during the journalist association anniv party. He said I look happier now after quitting my post as team leader. I look like somebody who has taken a great load off. My face is more open now, K said.

That is really how I feel about life in general these days.

White Stripes is finally inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

How amazing is that a two-piece band can create so much sound?! Meg and Jack White were honored by another two-member band, Twenty One Pilots, with their own rendition of Seven Nation Army. Bass guitar and drums (with keyboards on the side) are all the things you need to create this whole lot.

And here’s Ric Beato breaking down why Seven Nation Army endures.

Meg White gets a lot of hate for her simplistic drumming but here is Drumeo analyzing why she is one of the top drummers on this planet.

Her zero ego lets Jack’s guitar riff shine. She doesn’t overwhelm, she supports.

White Stripes = just two people who can make a big sound.
