Wireless mouse

Having a wireless mouse and a wireless keyboard, that seemed cool. For about 10 minutes.

I haven’t lost either one (which could be scary). In fact, since I never move either far from the computer, there is hardly a reason to be untethered (though not bumping into the wires is probably an advantage I haven’t noticed). I do notice that sometimes the letters don’t appear in the order I typed them….

But these things burn through AA batteries like nobody’s business. Two nights ago, I ran out. And the remote. None in the apartment.

Did I prioritize? Yes. For one night, my CO alarm and alarm clock were without batteries, while I kept the important devices running.
