Today is a good day.
Not five minutes ago, I discovered that I can highlight text and then hold down the right mouse button to drag it elsewhere in the document.
Holy crap.
After using a computer for hours per day for about a decade and a half, this shortcut never was made known to me. I am immensely proud of this accomplishment. After all, it isn't every day you learn something this earth-shaking.
But I am hesitant to report it in a broader medium (i.e., a Facebook status update), because I have this sinking feeling that everyone already knows about it. Kinda like Alt+Tab. No one really talks about it, but everyone knows what it is.
So here I am, in the aftermath of my world-changing discovery, and instead of celebrating the achievement with, I don't know, a Coke Zero or something, I'm trying to figure out, with the years of personal contact I have shared with various mice over the past generation, why I hadn't stumbled upon this earlier.
Today is no longer a good day.
