THE DARK KNIGHT

Thank goodness Wordscraper changed the look of the board! White-on-white is very hard on the eyes, and circle borders around the "tiles" help, as does being able to see what's under already-placed tiles for scoring purposes. Melia sent us an email: everyone needs to undergo Leadership Training as a refresher. Doesn't sound too bad, I guess. It'll be good to see everyone again!

The guys picked me up after 8 last night, and we discussed things like Margaret / Isabel / ROCK BAND / Radiohead's CREEP / Red Hot Chili Peppers / backgrounds to horror movies / SAW / NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. Eric said that Korey had told him about my past, and so we talked about stealing pens / whiteout / planners: "You should have stuck to pens and whiteout since it would have been easier for you to get away with it!" Note: None of us condones this now, of course. There was an insane lineup at Silvercity, and I found a $5 bill on the floor - I'll give it to Jon tonight as part payment. K and I just sat on the outside stairs while Eric ran in and out for us.

Once we sat down fairly near the front, Eric got us some iced tea and nachos with cheese / salsa. When Eric got back, Korey noticed my brother - it was such a surprise bumping into them! I'd mentioned catching a movie to Jon earlier, but we didn't know which one or where we'd go. At least Harmony got to meet Korey while she was in town! They decided to stay with us, and Korey said that we were interrupting their romantic date - not really, since Harmony's parents, sister, and brother-in-law (almost) were there too in different parts of the theatre! Jon, Eric, and I made very tentative plans for later tonight - if we're carpooling, we don't mind being at Christon's early since Jon has to help cook! I waved to Harmony's dad, and saw Holly and Peter later on.

THE DARK KNIGHT was a bit confusing at first, but it was certainly packed with lots of action! Money laundering, the Joker, Batman, and corrupt people all combined to make it suspenseful... the musical score was amazing too! Talk about evoking emotions! Maybe part of the reason why it's so popular is because Heath Ledger died, as Korey was musing to us. I took a DARK KNIGHT Facebook quiz, and got 60% on it - thanks, Omni!
