Oh, and I am watching Sahara and making fun of Matthew McConaughey with my friend over AIM and she linked me to this. :D It's so amazing because it seems like he isn't even trying and he just automatically can talk like that... I think the way he said "something" (after barbecue) was the best.

I saw The Dark Knight at midnight last night and it was amazing. I want to see it again.

I might go see it again. Morning movies are only $5. There really is nothing else that I want to see, besides maybe Wanted again. But if I don't want popcorn in the morning it's not worth going for me. Because I really want to eat popcorn at the movies.
