What you don’t have, you don’t need it now
I think for most of us, we remember our lives by music. The song that was playing (in your head or otherwise) while something happened.
I’m here at work, listening to stuff from my phone and U2’s Beautiful Day is playing.
All I remember is the first time I woke up beside him. He was getting ready to go to work, and he played this on his stereo system as he got ready. There was nothing spectacularly romantic about it - I was just in the bed with messy hair and bad breath and zombie face while he ironed his work shirts and pants - , we were just enjoying some good Bono at six in the morning. And then he leaned in kissed me, and continued with his morning routine. It wasn’t even a WOAH GA WORTHY kiss, it was just a small peck on the forehead.
I think I remember it so fondly because it was the start of the most wonderful thing that happened to me in 2009.
