    I just had to suck it up and continue driving it home. I think it took 5 or 6 days for it to fully dry out. About a week later she reveals that she wasn't just watching TV,

    she was tracking the approaching storm and waited until just before it arrived to make me drive home without the top. Her timing was perfect. I'm still married to this evil genius.
