http://www.worthgodwin.com/wet-computer.html This video explains what to do about a wet computer or cell phone, and also what you must *never* do if you get your electronics wet.
All I can suggest (sorry so late, I don't get a chance to sign in often) is dry it out and hope for the best. I'm not a big fan of those third-party warranties places try to sell you, but if you get one that covers accidental damage, sometimes they're not so bad. Hope things worked out for you.
Don't feel dumb -- you just didn't know any better, and there's a difference between the two! This is exactly why I made the video, unfortunately most people only see it *after* something bad happens.
As I mentioned in the video, if you turn it on, you get electricity flowing in the wrong places and it damages the components. Sometimes it does major damage, sometimes minor. I've seen some electronics die instantly, and others limp along for weeks or months before breaking down completely.
wow, i totally turned on my laptop like right after i spilled water on it then i saw this and thought about how stupid i was. what happens if you're one of those people who turns it on?
