It’s
been a while since I posted anything, and I’ve recently had some weird shit
happen to me at work. So, I was typing stuff in for a column when suddenly my
computer turned off and the screen seemed to gradient downwards to black,
making the screen look off. Now, I had just worked on this column for about 6
hours now, and it was gone. Poof. It was my own fault that I didn’t Ctrl-S it,
and it pissed me off. So, I stood up, calmly, walked over into the break room,
made some coffee to calm down, and then it hit me. I threw the hot coffee at
the wall and yelled some profanity. A coworker was sitting in the room and
asked me what the hell was wrong, and I told her. She walked out of the room,
came back, and told me that the computer was on. Now, I realize that it was
probably my hallucination, all the way up until I walked over to my keyboard
and saw some of the keys blacked out with a marker in some weird fashion, like
this:
qWerTyuIop
AsdfGHjkl
zCvbNm
The uppercased letters were the only
ones not crossed and blacked out, the lowercase letters were. I raised my
keyboard up and asked who did it, but people looked at me silly. I looked again
and it was back to normal. I asked my manager if I could go home and lay down,
told her about my sleep issues and she let me go.
Hope you can get something outta
this, Doc.
