You think the crumbs are bad. The other day I was really tired and took a break from coding so I could close my eyes for a bit - so i laid my head on my keyboard.

You know, I never knew how bad a keyboard smells.

Know the feeling too well. Habit of wanting to surf the web during lunch.

End up not leaving your PC for 9 hours straight and wonder why your eyes are tired when getting home.

Note to self - remember not to try this on my own stuff...

cheers Julie!

Benjmaiwoo, great comment! Maybe it's time you swapped your keyboard with someone else.

I look forward to a time when we get water proof, food-proof, hot-coffee proof keyboards (that are easy to type on... not like most of the inventions that currently exist in this category)

oh man, good thing I hadn't just taken a swig of my coffee when I read that. It would have been all over my keyboard, my screen, etc.

I think one corner of my keyboard's starting its own geology. A few months ago I spilt some cola down there, and due to the wonderful sticking power of old dry cola, it's got layers of old foodstuffs down there.

We go through the dieting era (poppy seeds from bread. Sunflower seeds. Marked absense of any proper food).

The Drinking-a-lot-on-schoolnights era (Bits of sausage sandwich. Old bacon. Evidence of strong coffee)

The cold turkey era (Old turkey. Not very warm)

Who knows what micro-archaeologists will discover. They'll probably get themselves a very small core sample and delve even deeper into the history of my keyboard. The mysteries will all be revealed.

Sorry it's so long. Got a little carried away...
