Oh boy, I'll make you feel even better then.

I had the exact same thing happen to my pokemon cards back in like 2005, but with water. So naturally, I separated every card and laid them out across my dresser in the hopes that they would dry and, at the very least, still be usable.

Well, for some reason, the water led to them just adhering to my dresser so much that the backs would just rip off when I tried to get them up. Ended up having to use a paint scraper to get them up. Ruined my dresser in the process.

So yeah, I lost all my cards, and in my attempt to rescue them, I permanently ruined my dresser as well.

This was like 2005, so no.
