Seriously! I’ve been trying to figure out why the heck I
can’t type without a ton of typographical errors. I’ve been at this since I took typing in high
school. Remember when the teacher would
roll up the huge screen that held the layout of the keyboard when it was time
to take a test? Trust me I know where
the keys are, it’s just my fingers apparently still do not.
For a while
I blamed it on the fact I’m ambidextrous, I liked that idea, I could blame ‘something’. This was not my fault.
Then, I
decided I had fat fingers, so that the keys ‘next to the key’ I wanted to hit
got in the way. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Lately I’ve
been looking at what the actual mistake is, before it (I) correct it and
I’ve found it has nothing to do with being ambidextrous, of (or) having fat
fingers. (I originally typed
pingers.) You will noitice (that should
be notice) the incoorect letters are randomly typed with absolutely no rhyme or
reason. The ‘f’ is notwhere (notwhere?) near
the ‘p’ on the keyboard; the ‘i’ is simply an addition to the word, as is the
second ‘o’ in the word correct that should have been an 'r'.
Seriously. SERIOUSLY!
I have a terrible problem. For a
writer this si (is) absolutely ridiculous. I have no choice but to depend on
word/spell check in order to put anything out for publication. Then, I edit, edit, edit, and re-write,
re-write, re-write.
Maybe, I’m
trying to type too quickly and my fingers can’t possibly keep up with my brain
that is at least half a sentence ahead of them.
Well, that’s just a stupid wxcuse, (wxcuse?).
Damn it!
Here’s the think (thinkg)…’er thing. A couple of days ago I was answering my Bible
study questions, recording them in the margins of the book, when I discovered
the same thing happens when I write. Why
it took me so long to realize this I df (do) not know. But, there I was writing, reasing, (erasing)…writing,
erasng (erasing). Lo wod
no wonder my pencils are always ‘like
new’ while the erasures are ‘nubbins’ .
There has
got to be a name for my conditon (condition) “Lord same (save) a duck.”
Crap! I asa (am) sooooooooo done.
