Wish me luck — two interviews today.

It all started with an amazing birthday surprise from my Wife. She bought me a 60-minute holistic massage. I've had sports massages and Thai massages before — but I don't think I've had a holistic one. The treatment began with questions about where I hold my tension, am I particularly stressed at the moment, etc. Then the masseuse got to work on my back and neck. Where there was a lot of tension. She asked me to drink lots of water, and if I felt emotional, that I should try to sit with those feelings.

Is the age of my daughter. She is growing up into a very self-confident person. When I remind her of this, she gives me the credit. I am confident in many things, and like to challenge myself.

Why do I really enjoy watching Eurovision? Why do some of my male friends think this says something about my sexuality? Are they so insecure in their own, that watching hot naked male gyration might make them feel something? 

It's strange how some numbers become linked in your head with specific things. The first one for me was three, the magic number.

I found a solution to yesterday's problem. With the help of Firefox and the Print Edit WE extension, I created a PDF for each page of the Microsoft module. So for some courses this is 7 PDFs. I then used the free (but you have to register as a user) Adobe website to merge them into a single document.

I have a problem. All the work I've done for Microsoft isn't attributed. I have the source Markdown in my forks of the Learn repo (which I'll lose access to when I leave my current job).

I'm trying something different today. Writing into the iOS LanguageTool app. It doesn't officially support Markdown — but that's the great thing about Markdown. It's just plain text, so it is supported.

What a great movie. Although I guess some people won't watch it now, as the bad guy really is a bad guy.

Gratitude.

Today was always going to be my hardest blog post.
