What do you do after swimming with the phone?

The best thing having a water resistant phone is the ability to enjoy it on water, but as you all know the back cover of the xperia active does allow water to enter between it and the water resistant cover, so what do you do after? do you dry it off or just let it dry on its own?

I used to dry it off after, open the back cover and wipe. but recently I have decided using the wrist strap supplied after I accidently dropped my phone on the pool 8 ft deep, I could not rescue it so I had to call my friends. , now as you know the dilema of removing the strap and the back cover, I wonder is it okay to leave the space between back cover and water resistant cover wet.? and uhm my phone is fine, it kept recording till it hit the bottom of the pool.

Thanks for this.  My phone got wet for the first time the other day - dropped in a sink with water running, which always happened to my previous phone :-).  So I removed the back and was shocked to see water.  I thought the water resistance had failed. I'm glad to find this is normal
