Oh, thanks for all the inquiries! The pea is out!! We had to go to the ENT at Children's Hospital and they had lots of fancy equipment and got it out in about a minute. Can't wait to get all the bills.
They gave him a stuffed bull at the doctor's office, and my daughter named it Ottery St. Catchbull. Who's a big enough kidlit nerd to know that reference?
Judy, I am SO SO sorry about your computer. Ugh. FWIW, I also had water spilled on a MacBook and we took it in to the Apple Store and told them what had happened. They were so stunned that we told the truth - because I guess apparently water spilling is not under warrantee and a lot of people spill water and then lie and say something else happened, even though as soon as they open up the computer, they can tell it was water - that they did the $800 repair for free. So you could try taking it in and being up front, but I'm sure it depends on the person who attends you.
For backup, I have an external hard drive and use my Mac's Time Machine to back up periodically - but not as often as I should.
And Sissy, for putting photos on message boards, I like using Photobucket (which is a website, not a software).
