something to complain about

Mood:a bit annoyed
Song:some Hindi song
Newest infatuation:water landscaping
Secretly craving:a freaking keyboard that works!
Wish i were...a geek. oh, wait... i am!

Finally i have something to complain about. My keyboard of 4 years has crashed on me. and the 'z' key does not work. So i decide to go out and buy an external keyboard before i can replace the one that's spoilt. trying to be the reformed spender that i should be, i look for a good deal, or so it seemed. I wasted hours at the IT fair thinking it would be worthwhile. But the freaking queues went on for miles. I didn't see the point of spending a whole two hours in a freaking queue just to save 5$. i scooted off to the nearest Harvey Norman and best denki. Sadly, they are too posh to have any brand other than Microsoft or logitech. that brought me to carrefour. There it was, a compact keyboard, most importantly, with a usb port...that doesn't blow the top off your wallet.

BUT, when i plugged it just now, Mr 'e' seems to have a problem. imagine. just for the sake of 'z', a consonant hardly used (except for cadding and photoshop) i bought a keyboard that has a problem with a vowel. Keyboard manufacturers should at least
make sure that all vowels are in working order, if they're too lazy to have proper QC.

English is nglsh without vowels!
