Ok, full disclosure. I’m going to game night tonight with my game group. We are doing a murder mystery set in 1985. We will be dressing the part, hair, makeup, clothes, etc. it is so over the top that I will be going to get my entire makeup makeover in a few hours by my grandson’s wife to be sure I have it right.

HOWever I will come home laughing afterwards as I always do with that group. We will have good food, great drinks, lots of conversation and laughter and an overall fun time. My wallet will not be lighter at the end of the night, and all of us will have silly photos to remember. It’s ok to dress up and have fun together with good friends. To pretend you’re having fun for the sake of squeezing a few more dollars out of an increasingly fatigued group of people who long ago learned how not to let go of their feelings is just sad.
