I can tell you now that this blog post is going to take me a long time to write. I’ve gone and done a drastic thing and… *drum roll please*… switched to a Dvorak keyboard layout. I made the switch having developed tendonitis in my left thumb from carrying Nicholas around, causing significant pain when I type. Given that my job is all done on the computer (and typing), it made ergonomic sense. That said, I foresee hours being spent learning how to touch type again.
I spent my evening last night switching the keys around on my keyboard, and now I just find it funny that I was unable to successfully change the index keys. Like my dodgy fix?

And does anyone have experience typing with a thumb/wrist splint on? Should I just go one handed?
