A sticky situation

I spilled oatmeal on my laptop yesterday. Oatmeal... In the keys, on the touch pad, on my desk, on the clothes I was planning to wear to work. It upset me until I remembered some other epic spills I'd had in the past that were much worse than this. There was the time I spilled gallons of German chocolate cake frosting in the back of my car, never fully finding a way to get all of the coconut out of the carpet. There was one time while babysitting that I splashed liquid Jello all over the kitchen floor just minutes before the parents were due to arrive home. And how about that night in college when my roommate and I made margaritas and accidentally unscrewed the bottom of the blender while it was still incredibly full? At least oatmeal doesn't stain. It's probably not good for a computer though, right?

If you need I can ask Will what the best way is to get it out. I bet he would say that you have to take the keys off, but I guess he could tell you how to do that best.

Oh, and one time at the Kunkel's I knocked over a candle and the wax went ALL OVER the wall and carpet, and also in my eyes and on my clothes. I freaked out, btu lucky for me it was a light colored candle and didn't stain too, too badly!
