Remember when I said I would update you in a week on how the typing was going? Well, I need the practice now…so here are the things I have discovered thus far (probably nothing new for you but again, I need the practice)

This is a painful transition. I’m fairly comfortable with my low-grade hunt and peck and having to relearn everything is kind of maddening, it’s like my brain knows what it wants but my fingers aren’t ready to deliver yet.

Typing of the dead is a lot of fun, and I’m finding the tutorials to be much better than what they have on Mavis. This is really a fun way to actually learn something – the graphics are old school arcade (well, the game is fairly old), it’s really intense to play, and it’s much more rewarding to save humanity than to copy old tomes word for word. Oh, and it’s full of zombies…like, overflowing.

I’m finding myself frustrated whenever I need to use the mouse…I’m longing for the little red track mouse thing on my old thinkpad.

More soon, this whole typing thing is supposed to get easier right?
