What I'm listening to right now.
The Avalanches, "Frontier Psychiatrist." This song was on the radio in 2001, I think. I associate it with living in Burbank, California, and driving on the 134 toward Pasadena to visit my dad. I imagined going to visit a frontier psychiatrist, who would help me in some difficult-to-define but appropriately frontiery way. The video is pretty entertaining, in and of itself - I can honestly say I never saw it before right this moment.
I made a Tomato & Yogurt Curry from a pre-mix ("seasonings only") package, earlier. This is quite adventurous, since the directions on the package are entirely and solely in Korean (see right).
So it was a cross between a Korean Language lesson and a cooking class. I wonder if this has potential as a means of motivating me to study Korean better. I kept confirming my understanding of instructions and vocabulary with a dictionary and/or googletranslate, worrying I wasn't making it right. But the basics: veggies and potatoes (I left out the meat called for in the recipe), boil in the first packet of mix, add the second packet, then the third, serve over rice. Here it is.
Dot dot dot. Life, it turns out, goes on.
