have you fiddled with your fonts lately?...
seems like youve either opened a bad font or closed it...either or, reset your normal system fonts in whatever font software youre using.

is there a quick easy way to do that? I was using suitcase fusion up until a week ago and then it kept crashing, I have been trying to go back to fontbook.

As iREZ says you could have a bad font(s) - try starting you machine in Safe Boot mode as it will trash you Font Caches for you and then restart.
Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
otherwise you'll need to remove/turn off any unusual fonts as they may be clashing for the standard fonts.
start by removing any fonts in your Home folder/Library/Fonts and then restart.

Could you have turned on a different keyboard setup in International Preferences? Looks Japanese...
