Bike problem this morning

Bike problem this morning.
The chain I lock my bike up with rests on the spokes of my back wheel when locked. Because of this my spokes bend and loosen up. I know this and normal check my wheel to make sure it's true. However, I haven't been doing normal maintanence lately.

Can you see where this is going?

So, about half-way to the train this morning I hear a pop and then my bike begins to wooble. (Sigh)
My rear wheel is so out of true now it's hard/dangerous to ride. Made it to the station and most likely will ride home but, tomorrow I will need to set aside some time to true up my wheel and give my bike a good once over
