Domestic comedy

Something I never thought I’d hear Elaine say:

“I think I’m gonna watch my soap.”

The soap in question is Do You Like Brahms?, a Korean offering about music students (Netflix).

And now I’m thinking of John Ashbery’s poem “Korean Soap Opera.”

Elaine asks me to add that her flu is a long story arc. I am taking good care of her.

5:39 p.m.: She’s now well enough to have written a post about the show.
