A good way to practice and get used to the controls is to play a bunch of singleplayer games like Dark Messiah, Oblivion (games in the first person perspective) I wouldn't jump on the bandwagon and play Counter Strike much because everyone on there is pro and will whoop your ass leaving you under confident and less reluctant to return to *****ty console gaming.
And about the mouse, I used to use a black standard wireless Microsoft one, and now I have a Razer Copperhead and the difference is quite noticeable. Wireless mouse are not as good for gaming because of the response time. As long as you have a wired mouse which you are happy using you are fine. Expensive mice are expensive because of their customization (being able to change the dpi, weight etc)

Just practice on newbie servers in source or COD. Only way to get good is get your ass whooped and learn what people do.

So?
I play by myself all the time, awp servers and all.
The mouse may not or may make a difference. I essentially suck, so even with the MX518 I just went from being bad at sucking to being good at it. However, you will feel the difference, oh yeah, gaming mice are built for that kind of stuff.
May I suggest this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...4178&Tpk=mx518
^^^ A legendary mouse, and if you have extra dough, go with a Razer Banshee
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...azer%20banshee
I played with a banshee once, oh my god, this thing is amazing, makes you feel like you have a 13" penis, because 12" is not enough
