This is my life. Love me or hate it's your choice, but I am who I am.

Daylight Savings, Monopoly, and Cheeseburgers.

Well today was Daylight Savings! Which means for most people that they get one extra hour of sleep. Does it mean that for me? Of course not! My body simply wouldn't allow it and woke me up at 5 am. But it was all for the best because I've had a nice productive day. Funny story - Back when I was a kid I used to think that the government created Daylight Savings specifically for the kids, like me, who had to wait out for the bus. I figured that they just didn't want us to have to wait out in the dark in the morning, so when it started getting dark they pushed the clocks back. I had no idea that the "adjusted" time was actually the summertime and in the fall we were just going back to "normal" time.

So, I woke Tim up around 6. Made us breakfast (sausage and eggs for him, 100 calorie pudding for me) then we went grocery shopping. Now, last night we were watching this show on Hulu called Julia and Jacques: Cooking From Home. And they were making hamburgers, so of course we were in the mood for hamburgers. Well, Giant Eagle has these premade patties with stuff already in them so we each chose one. I chose Cheddar and Bacon and he chose Italian. We got onion buns and sliced Gouda cheese to go with them. But more on that in a bit.

So, since we got up so early we were home by 8am! i watched some TV, he played some Grand Theft Auto. Then he got a call and got back around noon. We ate lunch (leftover tacos from last night). After that we decided to play a fierce game of Indiana Jones Monopoly. I got lucky and got the "Parkplace" corner all locked up and put "hotels" on all of the property. I was winning for a good portion of the game, but in the end...I landed on Tim's properties about five times in a row and he took me for everything I had. Final stats?

Holly: All properties mortgaged, $2



Tim: "hotels" on every property, $9043



After that horrible defeat we decided to make the burgers! Tim put Lowery's Seasoning Salt on them to add some extra flavor and they were delicious!

So now we might be watching a movie to end the night with. Great Sunday!
