It is the keyboard’s fault .

Apparently my pounding on this poor sensitive instrument of communication has taken its toll. (In fact I ruined two previous keyboards- they can only take so much of my flying fingers it seems)
I have noticed that certain letters sometimes are missed altogether – a double” ll ” is hardly showing up at all lately . o and p , have become best buddies as I can’t type one with out the other tagging along….. f and g , well they too are becoming and item .
As this poor keyboard reacts or doesn’t react, as the case may be, I look like a complete illiterate at times.
The flat black matt finish of the keyboard has certain areas that are now shiny and polished with wear and tear ( oops! a “t” buddied up on that one making it teart).
Now I could spring for a new keyboard, I could run spellcheck to ave ( no s that time) you all from tearing your hair out or going cross-eyed – I could even reread my stuff….( I do try on the blog but for those that receive my emails and forums thoughts – I beg forgivenss ( another “e” lostt- ) oh ! damn I give up !!!! – I will see if the budget will allow another keyboard!
In the meantime I will use the excuse “Misty is my new secretary !”
