Spilled water on my macbook pro!

Alright, Sunday afternoon I spilled a glass of water on my new aluminum unibody macbook pro. I immediately turned it upside down and wiped it clean and tried to get any water out of it (that went in) that I could. The computer shut off right away when the water went in it.

It's now Wednesday afternoon (3 full days) and the macbook has not been turned on or plugged in.
I have had it sitting in an "A" position upsidedown letting it dry out for these last few days.
Now, my question is, what should I do at this point?
Should I try to turn it on? Wait a few more days?
When I try to turn it on should I plug it into the AC adapter?

I'm just looking for any tips at this point!!
Thank you!

Sorry, I didn't realize that. I posted in there as well, though.
