°2013.01.14.Mon | Baking Scars
While I like tattoos and a few piercings, I’m not so fond of ear stretching or purposeful scarification. However, I am proud of my baking scars.
The most recent scab, gained via a pot pie, is presently a minor nuisance. But the scars on the outer portions of my (palm side) wrists are kind of elegant. They are the result of my weekly pizza baking as I place and retrieve the pizza from the bottom of the oven without having first removed the lowest wire wrack.

Self-determination theory posits three psychological needs:
- autonomy: control over your life, such as what you work on
- competence: satisfaction in your performance, such as mastering a skill
- psychological relatedness: good relations with others, including that one is appreciated

Young Korean women primp and photograph themselves as if they might forget their own faces.
Older Korean women wear big visors, have little dogs, and cover arms and hands as if the sun is instant death.
Older Korean men deck out in hiking gear as if they will soon be trecking Patagonia.
Korean Buddha’s sport thin mustaches as if they wish to beguile prajna.
