I have a small, unexplained cut in the middle of the back of my head. (My theory is that someone snuck in and did brain surgery on me while I was napping the other day.) It doesn’t hurt or anything and I can’t see it - I’m mostly only aware of it when the hot water hits it during a shower.

Because of this, I have been mostly forgetting it’s there … Except when something brushes or bumps it and makes it itchy, when I reach up to scratch at it without even fully realizing.

Then I really struggle with this impulse.
