Last night I took the L downtown for a last meal before all Chicago's bars and restaurants close for the next month; Sari wouldn't go with me. A sad scene...no one on the streets, no one on Michigan Avenue's Magnificent Mile, and no one in the very-popular restaurant in Water Tower Place.

Sat at the bar. They were giving away free hot popovers...delicious! But with no one else in the restaurant, it was kind of a morose meal. But a lot better than the leftovers waiting for me at home. Asked the bartender what he planned to do for the next month, and he just shrugged. Paid my tab, adding an overly-generous tip out of sympathy, and trudged back home. Washed my hands with extra care....and, avoiding a glance at my investments, (Dow down another 13% today) went to bed. After extracting 800ml using my catheter.

Kind of a depressing day....
