when i was driving home from work today i took note of a song on my car radio when i was almost home. then i searched the key lyrics and found out it was 'kings and queens' by ava max. it appears that many of the things in the video depict the lyrics as well. she is on a throne and has a sword, and there are plenty of dancers. there is a big dinner table, and a life sized chess board. and an interlude with maybe a dozen hat wearing guitar players. it looks like those involved with making the video had fun with it, as even a parrot seems to be dancing to the music. when i was looking up the lyrics i liked what was written about the song. it was called 'a message of empowerment', which is evident with a lyric such as 'no damsel in distress, no need to save me'. ava herself said 'i was never accepted, and i think a lot of people can relate to that. school is never easy, but it teaches us to be kind, most of us'. wikipedia said ava is from milwaukee, the daughter of immigrants from albania.
at work there was a spike in the overnight packages, 36 in all, so i stayed a little late to get it caught up. in the evening i went on a walk and found 26 cents. the 'big bang theory' rerun was when raj thinks he is dating his phone. i made the weekly visit to the hy-vee in eagan after looking at email. no surprise how the order was larger than last week's, as i try to buy only what i need, no more no less. and i needed more this week. it was odd that the receipt showed reese's peanut butter as 'general merchandise'. i already knew there is tax on it since it is considered to be a candy bar and not food. not much postal mail, which is the way i like it. i got a postcard about medicare benefits, not sure why, when i am not eligible for it just yet.
