My super-power

As I was reminded this afternoon, I have the ability to make dogs pee.

But, not all the time: just when they sense that I'm annoyed at them.

And actually, not all dogs: just our dog.


So really, I have the ability to make our dog wet – just a little bit – when he thinks he's in trouble and I'm about to reprimand him. Which makes it a pretty limited super power, actually.


I guess it's my ''alpha male'' pherenomes, or something: I was just going to pick him up and put him outside – I wan't even going to yell at him – and I was trying to be all casual about it. But I guess he sensed my deeper emotion.


By the way, my maximum lifting ability with one arm, in an overhead press (i.e. standing up, pushing from shoulder height, straight up) is now at 31.5kg – which is 69 or 70 pounds. I'm pleased. I supposse that means that if I know any 140 lb. people that want to lie across my head while I'm standing, I can lift them...

My eventual goal is to be able to ''dip'' myself, while leaning against a wall, upside-down. From this, I hope to be able to learn how to walk on my hands.
