I am thankful that I have never seen The Lake House, because then I never have to lose the idea that, since she’s in 2006 and he’s in 2004 and he wants to reach her, Keanu Reeves ends the movie by stuffing himself into the mailbox and then Sandra Bullock goes to open it and he busts out of there and they end up having a huge fight and breaking up. *

* Seriously, I did other things with my day – productive, normal-human things – but I passed a window display that had this movie in it (I’m assuming for Valentine’s Day) and it’s the prevailing memory I have from today. This is why my friends have to regularly remind me of things we did together, because they remember it as “The Day We Went to See That Band” and I remember it as, “That Time I Saw This Really Strange Old Lady Carrying a Loaf of Bread Under One Arm and a Dog in the Other.”
