Stuff and nonsense

Back from Download, which rocked mightily. Even poorer as a consequence -- and I haven't paid for the ticket yet. Also caught a cold at it, which seems most unfair in June. As a result, am at home, sniffling miserably. Trying to teach myself to type Dvorak to distract myself, as a result of this webcomic, which I heartily recommend. This seems reasonably mentally undemanding -- except, perhaps, on my motor cortex, which is labouring and protesting. However, in the short term, I now am slightly cross-eyed, have a headache -- and you would not BELIEVE how long this is taking to type! I'm even slower than on the smartphone! Been meaning to do this for literally years, though, and if I can scale the formidable learning curve, I *will* benefit, every single day, as a result.

So, for your delectation and delight, here's a bit of my typing practice... It's from the same book as this was, and according to Google, my humble LJ is the only place on the Web where this deathless and indeed peerless verse can be found.
