With the exception of losing a good portion of my roof tiles and having the large ficus tree in front of my house land on my garage, the Brazenette and I came through Wilma relatively unbattered. There's still much to clean up but I am incredibly lucky that my power was restored yesterday. My high speed internet connection is not working at the moment, so I am having to use a dial-up connection which means no access to IM at the moment.
I will confess that of the 7 or so hurricanes I've ridden out, this was the only one that scared me. I'd prefer to never again hear some of the sounds I heard (like my neighbor's satellite dish smashing into my living room window... thank goodness for hurricane shutters) and I never hope to see my driveway flooded all the way to the garage again. Mostly, I'd like never to have a discussion about the availability of ice and gasoline with anyone ever again...
Still, I am incredibly lucky. I will not make the deductible on my hurricane policy and that is something to celebrate.
(And there's still like 25 days left in hurricane season. *Sigh*)

I'm so glad you guys are ok. As long as there's nothing critical to fix, and if your office is closed, I'm here if you want somebody to help you think up arbitrage opportunities. Or any other kind of assistance that you might need.
Be careful, and again, glad you're ok.
