Top 2 Tuesday/Easter


I've decided to join the fun of Top 2 Tuesday, hosted by The Undomestic Momma!
This week's topic: 2 random things about you...

1) I have color-graphemic/ordinal linguistic personification synesthesia.  In human terms, I see numbers as colors and each number has a personality in my mind.  I know this sounds crazy.  But basically, when numbers are in dark print on a light background, I see this: 


and when I look at numbers together, I associate numbers with a lower value as more "meek" than numbers with a higher value.  Weird, huh?  

I didn't even know that not everyone saw colors with numbers until I was in college, when I told someone their phone number was "really brown."  Weird looks ensued.

2)  I was born without wisdom teeth.  I think it was God's way of taking pity on me, after I was forced to have braces my first years of high school.

Easter is coming!  I am so excited for my Mom to host Easter in her brand new house.  I am going to help her set up on Friday.


And then I saw this.  And I was all like,

HOLY &*$@!!!
I MUST MAKE THESE CUPCAKES

  (From who else?  Bakerella,  Find the recipe here)

 I will just die if I don't make these.  I love them too much.

I'm finally getting a haircut tonight!  I shamefully admit I haven't had a trim or color since November, and right now, my roots looks trashtastic.  I will be sure to post a few before and after pictures!

  1. I don't ever associate a number with a color but I do think they have feelings. Like 9 is a bully and 5 & 6 are friends and they don't like 7. 3 is a baby weakling to me.......

  4. That is so cool that you have that! I'm a psych major so I read about synesthesia at some point. Everyone in class thought it was the coolest thing. :)

  5. You are so lucky about the wisdom teeth! Is Bayley a rottweiler? I have a rottweiler, Dooney, and Bayley kinda looks like her a little.

    I love your blog, Im following you now!

  6. That's funny. I don't see numbers as colors, but I guess I do see them as good and bad. I really like 0, 3, 5 & 7. So a number that contains a lot of those I feel are good numbers. I don't like 2 & 8. Why? I don't know. So imagine I've had the same pin number for YEARS because when it came in the mail it was a combination of the first four I listed.

  7. Thanks for all your comments ladies! Who knew there were so many of us who feel numbers have personalities! Crazy!
    And I know I'm blessed to have never experienced wisdom tooth extraction-- isn't it about time we evolve and stop being born with those pesky things?
    Hope you all had a wonderful Tuesday!
