At work in a storm

Irony of ironies. I left early to come in to work (as it took me over an hour to get home last night), so I missed my boss calling me to tell me to stay home. "...but now that you're here, you might as well stay."

I just drove to the post office. Well, I tried to, at any rate. I was turned back by police because the streets were flooded and power lines were down. There's debris in the streets, mostly detritus from saw palmettos, but I saw three trashed umbrellas in the two minutes I was driving around. Despite the NWS advisories stating that the storm has slowed down and will be moving slower, my boss is of the opinion that things will start clearing up any minute now, so there's no reason to go home early.

All I can say is, I'd better be able to get out of here tonight.
