[#002] omg keyboard
So for the longest time, my laptop has had issues with its keyboard. I don't know why, but I remember not using the laptop for a long while, and then coming back and poof, THREE KEYS JUST RANDOMLY STOPPED WORKING. And go figure they were the T, Y, and O keys. Which are pretty fucking important. I mean just look at what I've typed, and there's an obnoxious number of just those letters. (I apparently always have this luck because if I'm remembering right, my last laptop also had keys suddenly stop working. (Well, one of them broke because of my brother--the P button which was an easy fix.) But then I think eventually the E key stopped too. lol)
Anyway, because of this broken keyboard, I basically stopped writing. Which, I think, was also one of the reasons I stopped using LJ or anything because I'd be resorted to basically posting largely when I was at work. Which was hard to do when I was trying to, you know, work. (HAHAHAHAHA what am i saying.) But also because it takes time and thought, and if I was trying to write, I'd want to devote time that was not being taken from trying to sneak shit around my boss. (cough, not that I ever did that. ofc.)
BUT THEN. I was at B's this weekend, and I realized that keyboards are hooked in via USB. And i thought. Wait. If a mouse can also work, even with a trackpad. COULD A KEYBOARD WORK TOO? So when I came home today, I promptly stole borrowed my parents' keyboard (it's their spare one so they don't really need it) to test out my theory and....
WELL I'M WRITING THIS POST, AREN'T I? hahaha. I already have obnoxiously tweeted a ridiculous amount now that I can. I feel like having this keyboard is so dangerous. BUT IT'S SUCH BEAUTY. BEING ABLE TO JUST FLOW. GOD. I MISS THIS SO MUCH.
So right, my point. Well, I actually made resolutions this year. So far, I've been pretty good about keeping them (remind me about them in like two months--see how well they're going snort), but one of them was to write more again. I thought I'd ease my way into it, so I told myself, write at least 2k each month. 2k used to be nothing back in my fandom days, so I'm hoping I can recapture that same magic now.
THIS POST IS BASICALLY JUST GOING, SOB SOB, I HAVE A KEYBOARD NOW. SOB SOB. WITNESS THIS BEAUTY. SOB SOB. YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.
