I made a boo boo.  I stuck my SD card right into the cd drive on my new Mac.  It's a SuperDrive, so you just pop the disc in.  And now it's disappeared into the abyss.  I have a desktop Mac, and the SuperDrive is located on the side, like 1/2 an inch from the SD drive.

Honestly, this was bound to happen eventually.  I'm a pro photographer so I'm inserting and ejecting (that's what she said) cards all the time.  Should have been paying attention, but that isn't always possible in my crazy house.  

I have tried a butter knife.  I have tried tape.  I have tried a credit card.  I have tried turning it on it's side and gently shaking.  I would like to try sticking a stack of post-its in there...but no gots no post-its.  I have tried combinations of all of these things.  I don't know what it looks like in there and what I'm supposed to be feeling, and nothing is working.  And now I'm screwed on so many levels. 

So, nerds, help help help me please.  I'll take any suggestions as long as they aren't things like "don't let go before you know it's the right slot next time."  Already on it.

 UPDATE: My hubby, Brian, is a flippin genius!  He turned the entire contraption on it's side, jiggled it around, gave it a bonk, stuck a credit card in, did some more jiggling and flipping, and out it came!  YESSSS!  Apparently his big ol dinosaur brains are bigger than mine!  Someone's getting some nookie nooks!
