Adobe Illustrator Acting Wierd

Ok, this is weird, I’ve never had this issue before. I’ve been using illustrator on my laptop and for some reason when I use the direct selection tool, I cant highlight the points on a path. It’s totally odd. Can’t grab the handlebars, (can’t even see the handlebars). Can’t grab the points unless I do it blindly. But that doesnt help much. Can’t convert points either. This is really bad since I have a project that I need to get done for a client and this is really holding me up. Anyone know if there’s a setting or something that I can change… or what. Thanks a lot.
