Yeah man, I drove through some deep ****. Scared the **** out of me, thought I was going to seize up the engine, but its running fine.

I got stranded off of the UNT campus at an apartment complex for an hour and a half, waiting for the rain to let up. It was like a freakin river around there man! I was real lucky that I didnt damage my car.

here are some pictures I found on the wfaa website:

OMG!! Those are the g/fs apartments! Thanks for the pic I'm going to forward it to her.

That whole complex got soaked. Water line of 4 feet on the interior of it, but luckily only a few inches got inside the apartments (dont know about people who had their windows open). Last night and all today they were pumping water out of peoples apartments, but it still smells like mold and the carpets are all squishy. Thank goodness school lets out soon.

On the bright side, her camera is being repaired, the car still runs, and shes safe.
