Last day of the Year, Mom update and other notes

Good afternoon everyone

Yesterday was a bit rough for me as a lot things just hit me at the wrong moment. Mom's still in the hospital at the time I'm writing this, but I do know they took her to get her radiation therapy, and they have changed the food she's eating to be softer since she's having trouble swallowing. If anyone would be kind to donate to her gofundme to help cover these medical expenses, you can do so at: https://gofund.me/6adf8354

Did reach out to talk to the FN Dante Savage and had a nice short conversation, was nice to hear a different voice in the mix of all the chaos and insanity I'm experiencing.

As for last night's stream, we featured the back half of the Persona 4 cast story in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax and came to a realization that the entire plot for P4AU uses elements that ended up being used for Persona 5, witch a 'god' being embodiment of desires, a crossover of the 'TV World' and the 'Real World', and with Sho basically having the same back story as Akechi! Still, P4AU does in some regard give closure to the cast of Persona 4 in its epilogue.

We also did an arcade run as Teddie, and I thought I didn't like using him in vanilla Persona 4 Arena, but the changes and refinements in P4AU meant the A.I. on Normal meant using Teddie was a lot harder than it needed to be. We ended up clearing out a few achievements 

For the raid, we dropped in on MissJackieLin who was playing Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight over at twitch.tv/missjackielin. Always nice to drop in on other streamers who are playing games within the same franchise.

Finished the Mass Effect short story commission and started on the next commission request for a WWE not-so-short story, but I also got in a request for another Mass Effect short story. So I'll probably go back and forth writing both, since one will take me less than than the other.

Went through some stuff to throw out and found a couple of things worth keeping, including the framed inserts that celebrated the 1995 Hall of Fame inductions of Richie Ashburn and Mike Schmidt that were in the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Uppercut Combo #1, Advanced Combo #1 and Beginner Combo #2 for 34 minutes.

Stepped on the scale and I weighed in at 240 pounds! Okay maybe a two pound margin of error, so possible 242 lbs.

What do you call a can opener that doesn't work? A can't opener.

Song of the Day: I Can’t Wait by Nu Shoaz.

For tonight's New Year Eve stream, we'll do the usual bouncing from game to game, opening with DKO Divine Knockout and then going from there.

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