This happened to me a lot, and I finally ended up experimenting with
other mice. The batteries would fall out if I squeezed the mouse body
too hard, and the connection would frequently drop...did some research
and found out that was a common problem with the Kensington mouse I was
using (don't have the exact model number handy).

Currently I'm using a Logitech wireless mouse with extra buttons. It
uses a dongle in a USB port, which is a minus, but it never loses the
connection and the extra buttons are a big plus for me.
