Luck, Life, Karma...

So I said to my pencil the other day
Probably a mix of all three...
For all the people I've pissed off, irritated, wronged and what not, if you wished something horrible happened to me, I guess tonight was probably it, barring few worse things.
I work at a fast food restaurant, in the middle of training to become an assistant manager. I was working the kitchen tonight.
One of the duties is to empty the bins full of grease. They aren't heavy, no more than thirty pounds. Easy and harmless to do if you're wearing the sleeve length mitts, which I was.
Then I stepped on an uncooked, thawed french fry. Before I could say 'oh shit' I knew I was in a bad position with almost 30 liters of boiling hot grease in my hands. So, no I'm not horribly disfigured, I don't know how I managed it, but I did, I didn't fumble the bin of grease.
It splashed, I've got second degree burns from my lower arm right up to my shoulder. I also landed on my elbow, causing hairline fractures.
Unfortunately, I'm right handed, and this all happened to my right arm. I just got back from the burn and fracture wards. Gonna try and make as speedy a recovery as possible, but they're saying my right arm won't work the same again. Probably means I'm done drawing for a long time.
I'm going to bash my head against a wall until I get back into the swing of things, I just want to publicly apologize to everyone who's been patiently waiting for art, it's gonna be a bit longer. I hope this levels out my karma for a while.
