This is a strange but rather necessary training excercise for my brain; not having the luxury of looking down when typing

. I find I am 90% there already, I just got lazy over the years. Good old AT102W, a good KB to train on, if not a tad stiff for my liking/
Weird - I find the typos come from my brain not pre-processing the next character to type, properly. My fingers race ahead of my mind, causing finger slips/collisions galore! haha!

Nothing new, really.
Talking about "My fingers race ahead of my mind", are you aware this is the 13th thread you opened since joining a bit less than 3 days ago?

I have to practice my touch typing somehow. Why, do you have nothing to say then?

To practice touch typing, just take and type an existing (not an own) text of some length.
You won't really practice by writing a sentence or two every now ant then.

...and when you've done that, why not continue there?
