Hi,
I accidentally spilled a little lemonade in my keyboard last night,
and I think the keyboard is now fried. I shook out all that I could,
and stuck paper towels in between the keys, and left it upside down
overnight hoping that it would dry out and work, but no such luck.
With my keyboard plugged in, the machine doesn't display anything so I
can't tell exactly what's going on. I am able to finger there and see
that there's no one logged on, but I can't login and it doesn't
respond to any keyboard input, but it does recognize the mouse.

I'll probably be going home early because I'm not feeling well, but if
Derrick's not here Pam should be able to let you in my office.
Thanks,
Carla
