Bad Luck out of the way - ready for good luck and good karma.

Karma - Through the law of karma, the effects of all deeds actively create past, present, and future experiences, thus making one responsible for one's own life, and the pain and joy it brings to him/her and others.

Luck - Luck is a chance happening, or that which happens beyond a person's control. Luck can be good or bad.

Ever say, "well if that's the worst thing that can happen?, then it's all downhill from here!" OR "I hope that’s all the bad luck we are going to have?"

Ya see, I was just about to close the laptop for the night and I spilled a whole cup of ice water all over the keyboard of the laptop.  I immediately pulled the power plug and flipped it over while turning off the power button. At least it was water and not coke (my normal drink). After gently shaking it to dispense the water out, I took it to the bathroom and used the hotel hair dryer on it. Then after some more shaking was almost satisfied I had all the big stuff out.  I wasn’t completely convinced so I placed it on the end table in front of the air conditioner for an hour.

While waiting for it to dry some more in front of the AC, I got a new cup of ice water and then knocked it over on to the alarm clock on the other end table by the bed. Ok, no more water for me tonight.

I crossed my fingers and turned the laptop back on and it booted. Everything seems ok.

So, if that’s the worst thing that can happen for this trip, I’m glad it's out of the way.
