So I ripped the nail off of the middle finger on my right hand. Its ripped right down to the quick. I use my hands a lot, like normal people do, for hand like things. Well now my freaking finger is all swollen and ouchy. I can still flip people off (not like I would, though. I can think of much classier insults than a simple "fuck you") but typing is difficult.
So basically, I realized that when tying, I use a combination of finger poking and normal touch typing. I use my thumbs for the space bars but I only use two fingers per hand to type. its actually surprisingly efficient. I mean, I would never get tricked into typing "greasn burger dan" or anything like that.
We have AIM set up so I can order parts from our vendors. Mostly i use this as a way to converse, rather than order parts. I mean, I have a phone for that. As a result, a lot of goofing off on my end happens. And maybe theirs. I dunno. So one day, John changes the "y" and "n" keys on Pete's keyboard. Pete makes typos galore anyway so at first I didn't notice.
Me: Hey where's you go?
Pete: luych
Me: Oh. what'd you have?
Pete: Its greasn burger dan
For some reason I found this absolutely hilarious. It wasn't until John pops up and tells me about the key switch that it made sense. The worst part was, he was convinced something was wrong with his computer, freaked out and if I recall correctly, tried to format his hard drive but was stopped.
Poor guy. Sometimes we'll still call him Burger Dan and he doesn't get it.
Erg. I was going to go somewhere else with this post. Whatever. I need more NyQuil and a nap.
