You try thirty years of torture and isolation and see if it doesn't take you a little bit of time to get your priorities straight, Peter. I was angry. I was hurting. I wanted vengeance, and I was blind to the fact that I had something far better than that...that I had the chance for healing instead. And I am very sorry for that, and very sorry that you got caught in the cross fire. It is one of the biggest regrets of all of my life.
*crosses arms, shaking head and looking down* Yeah... fine. Alright. It's just ... like you said, after thirty years of all that, sometimes it's hard to believe you'd just change, just like that.
*dry laugh* I'm not saying I'm suddenly Ghandi, love. But I am sorry, and I'm trying to see the world as not so bad. And I haven't got any sinister plans going at the minute.
Honestly? Nothing all that interesting. *makes a bit of a face, rueful* I lost 30 years of time--news, culture, technology. I've sort of been trying to catch up.
I'm taking a computer class. And I've been doing a lot of reading to try and get the political nuances I missed. Honestly, the 80s seem like mostly a wasted decade.
Pop culture is by far the most difficult though--I'm not certain what's even worth my time.
