(pardon quality of photos. I used a dying cell phone to take these. it couldn't really focus or get good light.)
So, I am going to be heading down to my parents' tomorrow to work in a space that is not a disaster for a weekend, and as some of you may recall I'd had some issues with my main computer in that the i key wasn't working right and kept falling off. Well, yeah, it hasn't exactly stopped doing that, even though having it at the Apple Store fixed all the other issues. (They replaced the bracket. It just died again.)
My other computer, my primary 'work' machine, does not have a working charger right now. I've been using Brady's but I can't bring it with me.
So when this happened:
I was just like ugh, oh crap, now what.
And then I remembered I had a bluetooth keyboard that I usually use with my iPad. Awesome! Except that my lap desk isn't really big enough.
I do, however, use Dap sticky-tack as a stim; squishing and stretching it for tension relief. Which means I have a lot of Dap sticky tack around. It is actually useful for things besides tension relief, and while I still don't use it to hang stuff on walls I have used it to fix shoes, and now, to stick to the back of the stand sections on the keyboard:
Which was then affixed to the computer, and as it turns out it is exactly the same size as the MacBook keyboard. A++.
I used it to type this post. Here's to innovation.
