Why he likes my hair short and blonde

Back when Ben and I first started dating, I wore my hair like the girl in this video. Short and blond. I was sixteen.

The Smiths' ‘How Soon is Now?’ was a required track on all of our mix tapes back then. And now, twenty years later, it’s on my iPod.

Oh, Morrissey, where did the years go? And why did I ever give away all of my Doc Martens?

I’ve pretty much been listening to this song on a loop since Friday.
