Mama said there'd be days like this

Problem: my keyboard suddenly wouldn't respond to the left-shift, enter, 3 or F5 keys. No idea why this is. Tested with mskey.exe, tested on another machine...still those four keys aren't working.

Solution: Get a new keyboard. Walk 10 minutes to Staples, find the same make and model, buy it, return to office.

New problem: New keyboard's spacebar is broken.

When I say "rinse and repeat" I mean that when heading back from Staples—this is the Chicago Loop, so one walks everywhere—it started to rain. Which is good, because the dewpoint is about infinity.

Now I'm cranky, damp, hot, and tired (which was a pre-existing condition today), and unproductive.

Waaah.
