A Note to Chicago Travellers

This is for the guy I saw sitting sitting on a bench at the Damen Blue Line stop, one hand holding a phone to his ear, another hand holding his forehead, and a pile of puke by his feet.

Judging by your backpack, you were like me: on your way home. And just didn’t quite make it. You didn’t strike me as someone who was just out drinking and partying, you looked like you were sick, and needed to be in bed, with some water on your nightstand and a thick comforter covering everything but your face.

There’s some nasty weather out there tonight. In addition to the 5 inches of snow we’re going to get, there’s both a Blizzard Warning and a Blizzard Watch. And some major wind chills tomorrow.

If you’re reading this, I hope you’re at home. And if you’re not at home, I hope you get there soon… especially you, sick guy at the Damen Blue Line stop.

Bundle up, Chicago. It’s a nasty night tonight.
