Here There Be Pirates

Full disclosure: I injured my eye at (real) work this past Thursday…I got something in my eye and scratched my cornea while changing an overhead air conditioner filter. And yes, I was wearing PPE. A subsequent infection landed me in the ER (that’s an A&E or ED for you euro-speaking folks) late last night. Between the blurry vision in one eye and the antibiotic goop I have to put in it four times a day, I can’t stare at a computer screen (let alone a phone or tablet) for more than a few minutes.

So, at least for this coming week, I’ll be doing another ‘Lineart Week’ to give my eye a break. For my new Patrons, it’s essentially the same thing I post on Wednesdays, but all week long.

Side note: I have to wear an eye patch for the first 24 hours. The wife is already sick of me talking like a pirate.

Me: Arrr, fetch me an ale, ye salty wench!
