Big Cat Sums Up Why We Choose To Live In Chicago Perfectly
I needed this today. It’s been a rough morning the Chief Household. Breaking in a new puppy. Constantly taking him outside the past 24 hours in 60mph winds and sub-freezing temps only to take him back in the house and have him shit on the floor. Then you open up twitter and all you hear is how corrupt and bankrupt Chicago and Illinois are right now.
I am not sure if people are aware of this right now, but around this time last year I was planning on a move for my old job. I was either going to Charlotte or Arizona. Two places with mild winters and sunshine. Sounds great right about now as a I’m cleaning up puppy piss with frost-bitten fingers. Then you watch that video of Big Cat, close your eyes, and you know it’s almost that time. That is why we live here. Those Chicago summer days where all you have to do is drink and watch baseball and maybe go for a walk down by the Lake. It’s the best summer city in the world and there’s nowhere I’d rather live.


Wrigley, boats, beaches, patios, beers. You can’t beat it. Just hunker down for the next…I don’t know…2-4 months. It’s almost time to poke your head outside and live again.
