Engine stalling after hosing engine bay?

I'm very bummed, my engine ran perfectly fine with no problems as long as i've owned it, I just drove it yesterday. This morning for some stupid reason I listened to my dad and hosed down my whole engine bay after scrubbing it. I went to start it a few minutes later (I should have let it dry or not have soaked it in the first place) and it started puttering, as I let it run it got worst and worst to the point where it puttered so much the engine died out and now it won't start. The check engine light came on a few minutes after starting it, i've never seen that light on my car, now I'm so sad that I ****** up my car like a bafoon. Does anyone know what might have happened exactly, obviously water got into something but I want to know where, how, and the price/ difficulty of fixing it. 2000 honda civic dx

You probably got water inside the distributor. Best thing you can do is let it dry out. It's common on older Hondas with distributors.
