A neurological
phenomenon that causes a person
to associate colors with everything from letters
to days of the week and even people and emotions, graphemeàcolor synesthesia doesn't have many practical uses in my own life, unless you count the time I filled awkward silences at my spouse's company Christmas party by entertaining acquaintances with the colors my brain links
to two particularly unpopular high school foreign language teachers with whom
everyone in the group
happened to share an F - filled history.
