My MacBook Pro Got an Unexpected Shower

At the beginning of last weekend, I was sitting at my desk with a bottle of water while watching some TV shows.  As one of the shows ended, I reached for my mouse and accidentally knocked that bottle over onto my (nearly) three-year-old MacBook Pro.  BIG WHOOPS.  My first instinct was to unplug it from everything and shut it off immediately, followed by taking the battery out.  Next, I flipped it over to drain out the water that had just fallen on the keyboard and started to dry it out on a towel.
