I sometimes imagine-type. I've heard that it's a decent way of practicing, according to some studies (on non-typing, but I believe it should transfer).

When I started out touch typing, I remember fingering the layout away from the board, and after became somewhat obsessed for a short while, to the point of imagining typing in my dreams etc etc.
My name's Pinkyache, and I've a habit. Phew, got that off my chest.
I also remember kind of doing a strange fumble, hope and hit on Ktouch one evening, and I flew through the exercises. Though thinking about it, it was more a case of a monkey on a typewriter, eventually I'd hit the right key.
