Actually, that is why I did it. Chris and I had a fight. When that happens, we try to walk away and come back together after we cool off. I needed to kill a few hours, and take my mind off stuff, so I drove up to the theater. Jumper was about to start, so I chose it. It took my mind off of stuff. I know you got more serious stuff going on, but it is just what the doctor ordered. I went with very low expectations so I enjoyed it and went home to make up with Chris
