Things to Do in Chicago

Today was pretty much a normal day except for a buzz call I got this afternoon from a name I’ll not name (not that you’d know him, it’s just not vital). He’s in some distress and I’ve done my best to help him in the past, but it just seems like it’s futile. He never seems to take excellent advice or reckon he’s done anything really incorrect. His whole life has been like this. I’m always having to be the one to tell him that he’s on the road to total destruction. I have to say things that I don’t want to say, but I care for him… and a name has to say it. I’m about to wash my hands of it and just try to be there if the flood ever subsides. I can’t let it change my family by getting to involved. Dammit.
