Okay, so, because I'm researching dogs, I've steeped myself in the TV show "The Dog Whisperer" with Cesar Millan. He's fantastic. His training places HIM as the pack leader of an animal, and thus gets the dog to play into a submissive role to the leader's dominant one. There are consistent tricks you can pull to communicate your dominance.
I wondered if it would work on kittens. So I tried it, and low and behold, the kittens are mellowing out around me.
So...today, finding myself back in grump-mode at work, I started reviewing the moments of the morning, trying to figure out the thing that tripped me up. And before I knew it I was practicing Dog Whispering on myself. Self-Reflexive Pet Training. Canine Behavior Modification Sans Canine.
This, my friends, is what happens to creatives exposed to too much of anything. Imagine me after watching Rainman. Yep. I talked like that for days. Definitely for days.
