Today I went to The Museum of Surgical Science. It is located along the lake and in a rich neighborhood, so I also walked around and gawked at all the fancy homes. I had lunch under the L and met a friend who moved here from Seattle. We had an adventure going out into a suburb to an Art Institute party where some famous artist had some instillation. Her art ended up being totally underwhelming, but the party was fun and full of lots of artsy kids. We missed the last train, so we had a crazy time trying to get a cab back to the city. Our tragedy was hilarious, and we all got back safely.

One of my favorite paintings ever. Fairly certain this is not the original.

An example of lots of murals
