A Working Keyboard

I'm grateful for a working keyboard! So here's the story. I spilled water on my laptop and it seriously had to go into ICU for like 30 hours...sitting on rice (some trick that absorbs the moisture). Anyway, today I attempted to turn it back on and bring it back to life. It turned on fine and didn't scroll or type uncontrollably, and the space bar worked! BUT the x, c, and e key didn't work. At all. And I just happen to use an x in almost all of my usernames and I quickly discovered that e's are used constantly. So, I had the idea to copy and past those letters from saved URL's. It definitely worked and I was able to log in to everything. But writing an e-mail took forever. Then, my roommate's boyfriend told me he had a BRAND NEW KEYBOARD that the company he works for gave him that he'll never used. He hooked it into my laptop and poof. I can type now and work for Texas A&M and do what I need to. I've never been so grateful for the x, c, and e key. It's the little things in life I guess that you don't realize how important they are until they are gone!
