I can't type

[lisamoe]

I spent some time tonight chatting online with a friend. It was really fun, but I'm a terrible typist. I really can spell, but I can't type at all, so I seem sort of semiliterate when you talk to me online. Now I wish I'd taken typing instead of metalshop in Jr. High. I don't need to be able to make a tin pencil holder. What was I thinking?

Metalshop = class full of guys goofing off
Typing = class full of geeks, with a pushy teacher telling you about your every mistake and to work faster

This was high school, the concept of being one of the only women in a group of men, far outweighs the advantage of being able to type 100 words per minute..

Oh Yeah...
