Every night before bed I take a relaxing hot bath. It helps me wind down and forget the stress of my day and puts me in sleep mode.
Sometimes I read in my bath, Sometimes I just lay there and relax, and sometimes I actually fall asleep! Sometimes I add bathsalts and sometimes I add bubbles.
Sometimes Birdie and Banjo will come lay next to the bathtub with me and nap and once Birdie tried to take a drink of the bathwater. I had to get on to her so she doesn't do that anymore.
Since I've been so busy lately I've started taking my laptop in with me and getting some work done. It's a really small notebook Mac computer so it's light. My bathtub is a huge garden tub so I have plenty of room in there. I'm always careful not to get my Mac wet.
Until Wednesday Night.
I've been pretending the past two days like this accident didn't happen. Like everything is fine and that I'm not stupid but I think last night it finally hit me that I actually did drop my laptop into the tub. I actually did ruin my laptop. My lap top with all my photos on it, with all my editing software, all my music, all my wedding photos...MY WHOLE LIFE is in that stupid lap top..
...Oh but you backed it up right Jenna? You saved everything on a backup drive so you don't have any problems right?
Wrong...
So I've had it open and upside down for the past two days letting it air out, hoping and praying it will work. I turned it on last night and it worked!
Kind of
The screen is no longer colorful. It's very faded and water blotches are everywhere.
The shift key is evidently stuck along with the caps lock key because every time I tried to type I just kept getting this:
!@#$%^ AND THIS
I'm typing from my work computer, which will have to be my sole computer until I can get mine fixed but I'm screwed on the weekends.
Do you have any suggestions for me? Can this be fixed or will I have to buy another computer? Can apple fix this or the Geek squad? Has anyone else been this stupid and taken their computer into the bathtub with them then watched in slow motion as it dropped into the water while you desperately tried to stop it but you just couldn't do anything but stare at it open mouthed and dumbfounded?
What does a person do without a computer?! Without the internet!? I'm scared...help me.
