Synesthesia

I learned recently that I have a condition called synesthesia! For me, letters of the alphabet and consequently words have colors associated with them. The letter A, for instance, is red. Words like apple, atom, autumn, and aardvark are also all red. T is kind of a muddy gold. Z is a dark blue. Days of the week also have heights! Monday is really tall. Tuesday is quite a bit shorter. Cool, huh? I thought of this the other day as I described listening to the new Maroon 5 album, It Won't Be Soon Before Long, as deep red with a shiny silver curve running through it.

I added my first K (light blue) word to my dictionary: kerning (also light blue). Have I mentioned I'm a closet font nerd wannabe?
