> [@Rhiannon8404](#): > > Thursday is brown. It never even occurred to me that anyone could think of it as any other color. It’s interesting, isn’t it? Although I know that my colour associations are as aribitrary as anybody else’s, I still find the idea that a day could be green or red somewhat odd, more actually, it feels _wrong_ to me. Makes you wonder how much else of differences of opinion in the end come down to different wiring. ---

I’m the world’s most boring synesthete. Oh, I’m synesthetic, no question … I will always remember being very frustrated when I was about 6 because I kept asking my mother “what color is Tuesday?” and couldn’t get an answer (for some reason that day doesn’t show up in color). But here are my other hardwired, synesthetic assocations: Sunday - reddish grey Monday - yellowish grey Tuesday - ??? Wednesday - orangish grey Thursday - grey Friday - black Saturday - grey 1 - white 2 and beyond - grey Now doesn’t that just make you wish you were synesthetic? ---

The colors of the days of the week are a simple matter, really. For a _real_ challenge try identifying the sex of each letter of the alphabet. No guessing! ---

Mondays are white Tuesdays are blue Wesnesdays are orange Thursdays are purple Fridays are red Saturdays are blue Sunday doesnt have a colour. On my month wheel December is at the top and its kind of a 3d wheel. Numbers also have a direction, 1-10 goes one way before branching off to the right to go from 11-20. > [@](#): > > The colors of the days of the week are a simple matter, really.
