Am dipping into Hofstadter's "Fluid Concepts and Creative Analogies. Have right up front found reference to a thought I long ago pegged from his "Le ton beau de Marot", namely a complaint of sorts on H's part that the immediately preceding thoughts should somehow shape current thoughts. In "Le ton..." it's the way having recently spoken Spanish influences current word choice, in "Fluid Concepts..." it's how having recently typed "Bloomington" seems to have influenced a typo on what was meant to come out as "blue moon." First, I think H has really mischaracterized how the typo came about; he describes the "oo" and even the "m" as "jumping the gun." More likely, I'd expect, a.) blue moon, despite orthography, is a single unit, the kind of thing from which eggcorns are born, a phrase, formerly separate words, so often seen in juxtaposition that many folks fail to parse the words separately at all, much as I was once stumped by cup board (cubbard) such that the omission of a space between the two parts of this phrase seems almost natural, and b.) indeed having recently engaged the muscle patterns of b-l-o-o-m in service of the sounds of "Bloomfield", and using an internal auditory lead on the typing, that particular muscle pattern set had stronger associational bridges. But, boy oh boy, does that presuppose a lot...
