I've done it! I'm now consistently typing at about the same speed as I was before, only now I'm actually doing it the "proper" way—I was good at typing without looking at my keyboard before, but I feel like I made more typos than I do now (probably becuase I'm actually using the home row now).
Anyways, here's the monkeytype stats thing:

So yeah, didn't end up documenting much (not that there was much to document anyways) but that's the end of that, I'm not going to update on this specific topic anymore but I am hoping to keep updating more frequently than I have been (as I said in the previous update yesterday).

I decided yesterday that I'm going to try to learn to touch type. The method I use to type right now is pretty fast and I don't look at the keyboard much but I do sometimes and I feel like I make mistakes because the placement of my hands on the keyboard isn't really all that consistent. I've done a tiny bit of touch typing years ago, but not enough to be really comfortable with it or anything.
Here's my stats right now on monkeytype (left is how I usually type, right is touch typing; both of these are on my keyboard at work so I'm probably slightly faster on my mechanical keyboard at home):

My hope is to get as quick at touch typing as I am at my current method, and hopefully that'll help me improve with my typos. I'll probably keep documenting my progress as I go :)
