That is completely cool. I am jealous.

Two is blue and three is red and there is nothing I can do to change that. Four is green but so is eight, they are however different shades of green. Forty-eight though, is yellow, go figure. Not all numbers above twenty have a color though, some of them stay black.

For me, it was always like the colors had numbers somehow:
yellow=3
blue=4
red=5
green=7
orange=8
purple=9

For as long as I can remember, I've had those associations in my head. Only those. No other numbers or colors. The weirdest thing is that when you add the appropriate colors together, brown always =12. But brown just isn't 12. :-??

one=white
2=yellow
3=green
4=blue
5=red (my favorite color AND number when I was younger - still my favorite number)
6=purple
7=brown
8=black

That's about where my colors stop. Everything in the 30's is green, 40's are blue, 50's are red

I have no idea what you people are talking about, so here's a picture of a bunny with a pancake on its head.
