Bloglet, the gentleman's mock turtle soup -- Moss made it sweeter than myrrh ash and dhoup
Yes! Success! Name Droppers, a game specifically designed for steno students, was working well, but it was slow, buggy, didn't show me my mistakes, and was graphically sort of hideous. But then I realized I didn't need a steno-specific program-- anything that accepted keyboard input would work. I remembered the ridiculous typing games of my youth and went searching. Lordy, there's some lame-ass stuff out there, and most of it wasn't suited to my purposes (had to accept custom word lists, forgive inaccuracies, and execute completion automatically) but finally I found one that was just right, not to mention freakin' beautiful: Typestriker. Functional, exciting, and freee! It even displays my undefineds! Yeehaw. Now I'm gonna convert all my chapter lists into level files and go pound me some steno spaceship arse.

It's quite true. I'm extremely wonderful just now. I dare say in fact I'm quite fantastic, and I should n't be at all surprised if I were mad.

In steno class on Monday, I learned how to write "whore", "gimp", and "I enjoy watching kangaroos frolic about".
