Hrllo
I sometimes like to see what it would be like typing in the dark by closing my eyes, turning the monitor off and trying to write a message without going back to correct mistakes or look at the keyboard if I forget where the letter I need is situated. I know, it’s a geeky thing to do but it amuses me to look at my terrible typing skills also really helps pass a dull day at work

or as my first attempt said:

I sometimes like ri rus whsy it vould ne like tyopuov= in ryg darj by xlosinv ny eyes, tyrnind rhw monitoy idd too and tryicnde to wrhue ths messata without sopjne dscjh ro dirrffet hudtsjers ir look su the keyboars ri i fogrude whrwre tje jeyyrt i nwws os sutuayrd.

...should you ever go blind (cheery, but it happens), it's touch typing lessons for you, methinks.

Blind
Should I ever go blind (God forbid)I believe I have more chance getting my guide dog to learn touch typing faster than I could.

I thought...
that would be a brilliant idea, so here I am, sat in a broom cupboard to emulate the dark (as it's morning now, so it would be kind of cheating..) typing away and giggling like a loon, waiting anxiously to open the broom cupboard door and see my dyslexic blind typing results.

Problem is, I can touch type.

Bollocks.

EDIT: Aaargh, womanwithverylongusername kinda blew the punchline by getting her reply in before me..

Oh well
*sighs*

I can touch type though.

an an extra
You can get keyboards with no letters on the keys, to turn it into a permanent mystery
