A spilled cup of coffee

This morning I spilled a whole cup of coffee, a big one, on my work desk. The one with all my computers and wires and disks.

I immediately went into action, throwing everything of value off the desk as quickly as I could, including both my cell phones, an iPhone and a Nexus 6.

I then cleaned up the mess, thankfully none of the equipment appears to be damaged, and I went and read for a while. To try to calm my nerves.

Then, I got a phone call. My iPad was ringing. Someone was calling my iPhone, it said. But where is the iPhone???

I still can't find it. Oy.

Eventually the battery will die, and when that happens, how will I find it. And I have this great Apple Watch that's useless without the iPhone.

Oy. Oy. Oy.

PS: Shortly after publishing this, I found it. It was in the pile of rags I used to mop up the mess. Whew.

PPS: There are little dried drops of coffee on my monitors.
