Kdrama recommendation - on Netflix, Flower of Evil. Great twisty psychological thriller about a female detective and her loving husband who may or may not be a sociopathic serial killer. Lots of interesting psychology about how well do we actually know our partners, is love a feeling or an action, how well do we know ourselves and trust our partners.

Very happy that twice in the last day, I understood a sentence in my Korean drama without having to translate it in my head! Granted, they were very short sentences ("Don't go, please" "I'm doing okay") but still, I'm excited that things are starting to gel in my brain a little. I'm looking forward to the day when I can watch them without the English subtitles. This is really kinda unexpected, that I am having so much FUN learning a new language at this point. It really wasn't on my radar.

I went to the local boulangerie and ordered my croissants and quiche with a flawless french accent, causing the other patrons to look at me like ... whoa !!!

I speak moderately good Spanish and I find Italian pretty easy to understand because it is so similar. Italian men sound so sexy too!

Super fun song my middle son sent me today - look on youtube for Brooke Alexx - All My exes' Moms. Very fun song about how all her exes' moms still love her. I can relate! Mr Big Lots' mom often says hi to me when she's on FB, and the guy from Brigadoon's adult children still love me!

I find it completely hilarious that no one challenged this comment about Italian men ;D
