Do a reality check you might be dreaming

Oh I wish.

Well, there are really just two possibilities. Either you've spilt some crumbs or something in your keyboard which physically stops those keys from being pushed down propperly, in which case the solution is obvious, or they've just stopped registering the keystrokes, which would pretty much mean you're fucked and have to get it fixed.

I'm not sure if that voids any kind of warranty, but it's definitely doable. I have switched out the keyboard on my laptop twice actually. Once because I got some coke into it and it lost functionality, second time keys just stopped working, maybe due to overheating.
