Once in a while I do something, and whenever I use my mouse to scroll my code the text gets larger/smaller.
I hit escape etc., but I can't get out of this mode w/o having to restart vs.net.
What is the secret?

CTRL + scrollwheel zooms the IDE. Hit the CTRL key a few times or blur the window (i.e. take focus away from it, sometimes VS gets confused).

In short: this happens because while scrolling mouse you may accidentally hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard. Once you release your Ctrl key this zoom IN/OUT behavior should stop.
You may effectively disable this behavior - How do I disable zoom on control-scroll in Visual Studio 2010.

Yes, ctrl + scrolldown/scrollup results in zoom out/in.You can use the dropdown containing the zoom level(in percent) at the bottom left of the screen in source window to revert it back to normal. 100% is the normal zoom percentage.
