I woke up this morning to ankle-deep water in my house.

(Sorry for the crappy local news site.)
By the time I got out of my house and over to my (slightly higher-ground) neighbors, the water was waist-deep (inside the house). We stood on dining room chairs in my neighbor's living room until we were finally rescued by boat. When we started, the water was 3" from the bottom of the chairs - by the time the boat got there, they were 3" above the chairs. We passed the time by passing around some whiskey (to stay warm, of course, the water was 35 degrees) and talking about how we were going to hit the insurance companies to replace all of our ----.
I'm currently sitting in my mom's living room. I now own my wallet and my underwear (I tossed my wet stuff for some stuff of my neighbor's when I got there).
I'll get pictures online eventually, if I can get ahold of a camera - my cell phone and my camera are floating.
