Well, eyes open long enough to get the hands on the start points... closing eyes now...

OK, so let's see how this works. I blather for a bit relying on muscle memory to hit the right keys. That ain't gonna happen, because I have to correct myself frequently as it is- find home- which is difficult when typing with a black keyboard and the only light being the moniror plus one reading lamp to save a bit of energy.

OK, let's see how I did... (open yees)...


... wow. Only two errors. That's a LOT better than it felt like.

And now, I'm not really much of a touch typist. I'm essentially a two-fingered typist who can crank the two-finger bit up to about 60 WPM.

Still, a paragraph with only two errors... I'm making more errors with eyes OPEN than closed, actually. I'm just correcting them as I go so you'll never know (and I won't remember) where they are.

Interesting experiment. Maybe I'll do it again sometime with a longer post.
