I discovered that I

I discovered that I can touch type.

That probably sounds odd coming from a woman who’s spent a significant chunk of the past ten years at a keyboard. My shameful admission is that I always watch my fingers. Not so much to find the keys, I guess, as to will the words to come out of my head and onto the blank page.

Yesterday, as I was concentrating simultaneously on two things on my screen, I suddenly realised I’d typed an entire paragraph without once looking at my hands. What a revelation. My style and fingering leaves something to be desired (my jr. high typing teacher would cringe) but it gets the job done.
