Hopefully your machine will dry out and be usable - in the interim: go outside, hug your children... do anything but use your laptop.

20oz mug of tea on my first. Killed keyboard and trackpad.
Tankard of beer, large glass of red wine, glass of Kool-Aid on my second. Killed keyboard, trackpad, wireless reception reduced to half range, Superdrive died after two months.
I am not to be trusted.

Just booted up. All systems go... (for now). The keyboard is a bit crunchy, and the trackpad's button action is a bit whacked; but I can live with that until I can upgrade.
Whew. Thanks again for all the tips.

Yaaaaay!!!
Always a relief. You could just open it up and clean it. Get some ethanol and some cotton buds, go roundthe keyboard and trackpad and it will be like new!
I think it's ethanol, double check though! :)

I spilt beer all over the keyboard of my Mac Book Pro at a VJ gig one time, the space bar use to jam up but now it's fine

Isoproyl alcohol is best for cleaning internal parts, it's often sold as lcd cleaner.
