Finger trouble

At lunchtime I managed to cut my finger on a tin I'd just opened, which turned out to be unexpectedly so razor-sharp that just brushing it very lightly broke the skin. Bah.

It's very annoying to lose the use of my left middle finger. Typing without it is requiring considerable concentration and feels very strange. In particular, letter combinations such as ‘er’ and ‘tre’, which I'd normally type using a finger-drumming sort of motion, I now have to stop and think about and type one finger at a time. It's a good job that the QWERTY layout doesn't have too many adjacent letter pairs that often occur in English text, or I'd be having even more trouble.

Fortunately, it's Friday afternoon, so I don't have much typing left to do this week, and I can mostly rest it over the weekend. But bah.
