█ █ SCARY ACCIDENT!/ current to do list ;;
10 years ago
So firstly I thank everyone who said kind words while my father was in the hospital the past couple of weeks with life threatening conditions. I'm so thankful to say that he has been moved to an in patient rehab for two weeks. So he's getting back to his old self and can probably come home soon.
Secondly I had a terrifying accident THURSDAY night. I had an incident with my gas oven from the 70s.
Left the pilot running (oh god i can't believe i did that) for 10sec then proceeded to open the oven door and light the pilot.
No exaggeration, EXPLODED IN MY FACE AND A GIANT FIREBALL CONSUMED MY HEAD.
Thank everything alive I AM OK. I have some burns on my lips, eyelids, nose and hand. I also lost a portion of my hair and my eyebrows down to the stubble. I'm so thankful that I'm ok and I didn't have to go to the hospital. Or you know, be horribly disfigured for the rest of my life. So other than scabbing and a little mental trauma, I'm going to be fine.
I lost a bunch of work days and I really hope I can make them up in commissions later.
This month....has been the month from hell.
That being said February is going to be better. I just know it. ;m;
I'm finishing up

I thank everyone waiting on art or trades for waiting so patiently.
Have some work to show soon guys so sit tight!

Its really no more than severely chapped nose lips and a lil on my eyelids.
Also I'm lucky I don't use any sort of hair products or I could have lost enough hair to be visible.
Thanks for caring about me you ball of sweetness. ;3;
<3
Probably be a good idea to get a new oven so you don't have to worry about this again in the future ;w;!!
//worries
I'm chapsticking and oitment crazy right now.
;0;
Also glad to hear your dad is getting better!! ;v;
I think that oven needs to be replaced.
well, a get well soon to your dad! and maybe you should play the lottery now, before all the good luck vanishes. :)
Protocol for lighting a gas device is: You light the match first, THEN you turn on the gas. Could have been a lot worse. I'm glad it wasn't.
Thank you very much for the good vibes.
The positive thing is I think I'll get your piece done tonight. It has sooooooo many layers of media on it. I've had to do it in stages so the paper wouldn't disenegrate. Thank you for being so awesome to work for.
I'll be getting back to your ref sheet shortly. ^^
My god, its terrifying to think....what if?
Like if it had been 40sec of the pilot being on vs. 10sec.
Thank you to higher universal powers for allowing me to keep my ability to create.
good to hear too that your father is doing better
This community always makes me feel more stable and strong. Thanks for bein a part of it.
May nothing top that for some time.
I am thankfully ok. Just have to keep ointment on my dry spots.
Thanks for saying so.
So glad you're okay, I hope the burns aren't too bad. ;; *sends hugs and healing vibes*
But all things considered I'm not in pain. Thank you for those vibes
Stupid, but lucky.
I've got a peeling nose. Seriously no biggie.
Yer sorely missed on the east coast.
I hope it'll be a looooong time before something scarier happens.
I've had the same run in with a rogue BBQ...
Maybe Johnny Cash had a similar run in?
(I really wish I would have seen this post earlier .. *bows head*)
Glad your father is on road to recovery (reading other previous journal... glad he recovered from a set of serious issues there, that is great news).
I am happy to hear your situation wasn't any more serious, *whimper*, it used to scare me lighting the gas oven when I was a child (I was scared of matches/flames full stop then). *give a kiss to his finger and puts it gently on you hand, then lip, nose and eyebrow...* hope they get better and you have no issue with any healing.
Wishing you the best, the cook beaks you back (ever so softly as to not hurt you in your recovery!).
Mmmm crêpes! :9 *awkward fawn mouth with chinney whiskers caressing beak crêpes *
I am doing well I'm interstate for work... Getting aquatinted with a new area. Sitting in a park here which is rather nice. I am doing well.
I'd happily make you crepes (I'll leave the accents of :p takes me long enough typing on a mobile)... Would offer to feed you if around *chirps*
I don't know what to do next in mask.. Was thinking of casually watching TV *laughs*
Sitting in a park sounds like heaven to me. Its not park weather here in NY. Just gotta hold put till spring.
*Uses cutest prehensile tongue ever to grab crepe from yer beaky*
Someday i know we are going to meet.
I'd happily sit in a park with you and hold pancakes in my beak and offer them to you... OMG *squints in glee at the prehensile tongue and shakes head to fluff up feathers*...
Would love to meet, you are a good creature *chirps*
(hope you deer are all healed now)
I have a feeling our paths are going to cross someday.
I would love to cross paths with you. I enjoy the times we talk.
<3 a better month has started for you, this brings a huge smile to my face.
Thank you for dropping in to say so though.
