Retcon

In the show Torchwood (in which everybody snogs Captain Jack) there is a pill they give to people who find out too much about their missions. This pill, called Retcon, makes the regular public forget about what they've seen and experienced. Those of you who have seen the episode Adrift, go here for an extra treat:

The other night, I had a dream about a former BFF. In the dream, we were still friends, and had gone to a conference together, even saving seats for each other. So sad to wake up and remember how much things have changed. Once trust has been lost, I don't think any relationship can be salvaged. It just hurts too much.

So, I wish I had some Retcon to forget the past, but still that trust I once had has died. In a song from Wicked, there's a song that goes "There are bridges you cross you didn't know you crossed until you crossed." I wish I had known more about what was going on, and decisions that were made that I should have been consulted about, but wasn't. I'm trying not to be so blind now. Still makes me sad.
