Yesterday was our last full day in Chicago. We mostly sat around the house doing nothing. Well, not nothing nothing. There was board gaming and puzzle-putting-together and book reading and napping and such.

I mentioned before that we stayed in an airbnb. I'm always kind of intrigued by the kinds of decor people choose to put in these places.

A small-ish dining room with a wooden table and the entire back wall covered in a mural of the Chicago skyline.

I suppose a Chicago skyline mural in the dining room isn't the worst choice, but it kind of gave me vertigo.

A gray wall with a tall niche (maybe six feet tall?) occupied by a large vase thingy. The bottom half of the vase looks like woven wicker while the top, narrow neck looks like porcelain. Poking out at the top are white fake vegetation and red fake vegetation and also stems topped with hearts.

This was also in the dining room. There was some discussion about whether the vase thingy was bought for the niche or the niche was designed for the vase thingy.

A gray wall with framed 3-D flowers in shadow boxes. The small hallway to the right leads to a kitchen nook and the kitchen itself.

The shadow boxes on the living room wall were kind of nice.

A geometrical shelf unit hanging from the wall. There are some fake plants in a small clear vase on top, a fake (I think) succulent in a ceramic vase on the bottom. In the middle is a sign that says "Live. Love. Wine."

Okay.

Large butterflies displayed in shadow boxes on a white wall in a kitchen.

I like large dead butterflies in shadow boxes on my kitchen wall.

This I kind of liked. It's a series of what look to be magazine or newspaper articles framed and running up the wall by the stairs that led up to the bedrooms. None of them had dates on them, but the one featuring Cloud Gate (THE BEAN) said it was a new addition to Millennium Park. So not recent.

Some kind of fuzzy-ass green thing with flowers stuck on it that might be intended to look like a cactus. It's in a wicker basket surrounded with wicker balls, green fuzzy balls, and other rock-like items. Weird.

And then there was this.

Here's a view out one of the side windows. We were in a single unit of a condominium building near Lake Michigan and close to the edge of Loyola University.

A view out the side window of a condominium complex that's very close to another condominium complex to the right. Between them are a sidewalk and a wrought-iron gate covered in vines.

Dinner was a stir fry made of a bunch of things left over from previous dinners. I cut vegetables again. It was yummy.

In the evening, we went to the Annoyance Theater. Here's their Wikipedia page. The show we saw was Roll for Comedy, which was advertised as a comedy show using D&D mechanics. It was fairly D&D lite, but I found it pretty amusing overall. One of our party was chosen to go on stage as the Evil Wizard, who had been afflicted with a silencing curse. The curse was to be cured by making him laugh, and they eventually managed it. I laughed a lot, which is all I could ask.

This morning, we had to be out by 10 am, so we had breakfast and skedaddled. I was asked to scramble eggs, so I did.

And now I am at home on my couch with my ridiculous tiny dog.
