Today's Notes 4/25/21

Good afternoon everybody,

Last night's stream of ESPN Major League Baseball saw the wrap up of the 2004 season, as my Philadelphia Phillies finished with a record of 111 wins and 51 losses and that was with me simulating most of the second half of the season. A big goal was to make sure Jim Thome won the triple crown, and he did with a batting average over .400, 48 home runs and over 180 RBI. Now I thought about just simulating the playoffs, but Iceman was shocked I would do that, so on Saturday of this upcoming week, we'll continue with the first half of the post season.

Continuing to look for stuff of interest when it comes to older games and things of a collective note, and I think I have a bead on things like Die Hard Trilogy, WWF WarZone and Tomorrow Never Dies for the PSOne. Obviously the first of those three will go into my idea of having a 'Bruce Willis' night when it comes to games associated with him. The other two are more for completing collections, as I have WWF WarZone is the one game I'm missing related to WWE wrestling games from the PS1-PS3 era, and it's the last one I'm missing from the Acclaim published wrestling games from that same era. Tomorrow Never Dies falls into completing the James Bond collection of games, but I know I'm still missing a few. 

Finished a Rule34 fan fiction commission last night, and got $50 for it, granted my interest in the pairing of Kelly Kelly and Randy Orton was not exactly all that high, since Kristi and I did everything logically possibly with those characters during our long writing collaborations.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout was about 43 minutes, but since it's a Sunday we did about 20 minutes extra. In comparison to yesteday, this workout was a few minuets shorter but we still burned an estimated 1083 calories. We finised up Sophie's Best Friend Achievement today during the daily workout, so for the extra portion I did, we switched to Bernardo, and quickly unlokced his related achievements of New Student, Best Student, Stylist, Fashion Designer and Fashion Saboteur. At this point 80% of the in-game achievements are now unlocked. Also stepped on the scale today and I'm down to 249 pounds! 

Tonight we'll be playing Overwatch, as we do every Sunday, and we'll be taking full advantage of the Archives event which ends this week, so we'll be going after the Mercy skin right off the bat. We'll get this stream started at around 7 PM EST tonight.

And on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
