Bloody Cat!~

I had a very nice surprise this morning when I switch my laptop on. A key was missing!

Originally, it was the letter M missing... M for 'mischief'... This bloody cat! I could recover the key, replace it with another one but then what ? I have a hole on my keyboard? Damnit! What was I going to do with this broken plastic thingy? Call the tech center?

Yup, I did... And they direct me to someone else who send me to somewhere else who... Well, you get it. So, unless you are willing to send your entire laptop to God-knows-where, there's no way I was going to get that bloody piece of plastic. I even called Marseille in France! So, tonight, after spending a fair amount of my time on the phone, I had only two options... Leave it as is... Or try to fix it.

I took the second option. MacGyver style! I looks like crap now, but I have the key back.

Oh well... :| I guess I'm good to go find a new keyboard... Hmpf! Bloody cat!

That happened to me once, and no cat to blame. I noticed my volume key (upper right hand corner) was missing one day. No idea where it went. So I had to remove a less used key and use that. Still ended up with one space on the keyboard. Almost as baffling as the missing sox case. Every time I do a load of laundry I seem to lose one. :-(
