Default keyboard all of a sudden is japanese....

I'm not sure I did anything other than maybe update xorg during one of my weekly updates, but for some reason my keyboard is completely mapped wrong now (at least I can type). From doing searching online, it seems like evdev remapped some keys recently or something, I'm not really sure, but right now a bunch of keys are wrong. For example:

UP key: keycode 98 (keysym 0xff26, Katakana)
Down Key: keycode 104 (keysym 0xff8d, KP_Enter)
Left Key: keycode 100 (keysym 0xff23, Henkan_Mode)
Right Key: keycode 102 (keysym 0xff22, Muhenkan)

My page up, page down, delete, home, end, right control and right alt keys are all messed up too.

Anyone have any idea what could have happened? I didn't change any configuration in xorg.conf regarding keyboards, I didn't physically change any keyboards (although plugging in a second USB keyboard results in the same things happening with that keyboard too).

I need help
