I’m with Franz Kafka. I’m a monster, grumpy, suffering severe bouts of COF Syndrome (that’s cranky old fart syndrome in case you want to use it), and my writing is currently being done with one middle finger of each hand (the casts on each hand stop the others being useful — and I still have to use a thimble on each to make it just long enough to give the bird to each key pressed without also pressing the keys either side, or above/below).
Anyway, I’m not able to write enough, and the one-finger salute feels rude to both me and the written content.
But … I’ll be back … back … back …

It’s okay, I have enough self-pity to go on with for quite a while (just never expected to have both thumbs out of action at the same time).

I type one-handed all the time, typos are a real bitch, when actually my spelling is really good, and it does sometimes mean I hit “Send” a second too soon.

atm I seem to have a problem with too many spaces popping in when I’m not looking. Yeah, it’s a bitch, especially as I like to write with my eyes closed while I’m visualising a scene (touch-type at abt 80-120 wpm with the use of both hands in good shape – learned from writing a ton of code and associated documentation – which I will never do again).

Funnily enough I never typed much more than chopsticks. But strangely enough despite programming them half my life, typing fast was never required. Even when I got into design, and was more likely to be using Word, hands that were more agile than brain was a waste.

I hope that this phase shall pass soon. I hear you about the COF syndrome though. That was me for a few weeks when I strained my lower back and was not able to ride. I am back riding now and my husband is glad to see the end of the COF!

It’s always the partners who recognise the syndrome first.

Your COF is a cousin of our KOF then. Hope you get more nimble in your hands soon.
