Key change

Okay, this is weird. Am typing on the original keyboard that came with this computer, while my enormous divided Save-Chaz'z-Hands keyboard is drying gently in the bathroom (on account of yesterday's wine incident leaving it with one key inoperable - uh, the return key, which pretty much renders the whole machine inoperable). It's a really odd keyboard anyway, this, the smallest I've ever seen with a desktop - perfectly well-made, just tiny and flat and pretty safe to knacker my hands. At the moment my fingers keep falling over each other. Which is, as I say, weird, because they're also used to working on v small keyboards, both the new-to-me Vaio and the old Packard Bell Easymate 770, and I'm completely comfortable with switching between those and the big board. This is just an odd halfway house, and I'm stumbling: not quite sure which mental instruction-set to engage, I guess.

I ought to do some work. I suppose. Haven't written anything for days, what with one thing and another; and I'd planned to dive into Big New Fantasy from May 1st. But I'd planned to have finished Stupid SF Novella before the end of this month. Even a week ago, I was still thinking I could do that, with a bit of a death-march charge. Hasn't happened, can't see where it will happen; too many distractions just now, I can't close the doors on the world and just buckle down. Hey-ho. I think my buckles are broken.
