Marked Forever

So one morning I was getting ready for work, standing in front of the mirror, and noticed what looks like a bullseye on my stomach. I took a step to the left. It moved too. A step to the right. It moved too. I thought, has someone got a rifle site on me? (It takes me a while to wake up in the morning) Then I remembered that the day before, my dog had knocked in to me as I was putting away the hairdryer, and that I'd burned myself. It's months later and the scar remains. (The curvature visible in the picture is due to the iPhone and has nothing to do with the curvature of my belly). (OK, that's not really true).
