There’s a dead mouse on my desk. In typical Windows fashion, my computer went all wonky as soon as I needed it most and as soon as there was no support staff. Saturday morning, I sat down to my computer, and the mouse was dead.
I’m almost ashamed to admit that I couldn’t figure out what was wrong with it. Windows claims that the registry is corrupt, but I’ve stopped trusting Windows a long time ago. Tried deleting it from the Hardware Manager, then re-adding it, but to no avail.
When was the last time you used a computer without touching the mouse? It takes a lot of patience. It’s Monday morning now, and I’m waiting for the IS guy to drop by my cubicle. In the meantime, I’m enjoying a moment of mouseless blogging.
I suppose I shouldn’t complain. After all, I happily used mouseless computers for years before mice became de rigeur for PCs.
Hmm. There’s a Mac in the corner. Do I dare…?
