Eyes Closed

Still typing with my eyes closed and slower than snot (sorry for the visual) so I thought I would just post a snip.  Or three. Cut from Eve’s book after Eve and Ben rescue Hanna: “You’re frightening her more, Captain. Let me—“ “No time to coddle her, Doc. Wouldn’t be a favor anyway. Look around.” […]

Snap, Snarl, Growl

Every computer I came near today hated me.  Can you possibly imagine how much fun that was? Let me put it this way.  I do attendance for 800+ kids.  On the computer.  There’s just no way to get it done without the computer. I enroll kids.  In the computer.  Otherwise the district can’t track our

Yurgh

Movie Night

Bly’s home, and that means movie night. So…what have I accomplished?  Well, I am typing this all in dvorak, so that’s something.  I spent an hour or two working on getting Flame into the computer.  Keyboard practice and work that needed doing at the same time.  Yay! When I couldn’t take any more practice (read

Should Get to Work

But, yanno.  Just not ready yet. And dvorak, for any wondering, is driving me mad.  Holly Lisle compared changing to recovering after a stroke, and it’s an apt simile. My qwerty speed is something like 75 wpm.  Dvorak at this point is more like five.  By the time I get anything said, no one is
