Color

I have finally figured out what my favorite color is.
Lucy asks me all the time what my favorite color is, and I really don't know. I usually say lavender although that's not really it. I know it sounds really dumb but it bothers me every time she asks me, that I don't have a favorite color. I think to myself, am I so lost as an individual that I don't even know what colors I like? Nothing like a four year old's question to make you ponder the deeper meaning of your life.
Anyway, now that fall is upon us and Halloween is around the corner, traditionally "fall" colored things are everywhere and yesterday it struck me. ORANGE is my favorite color! I love orange! I was genuinely pleased to figure this out. It is the little things in life, I guess!

According to some lady online, having orange as a favorite color says this about you:

Orange: This color of luxury and pleasure appeals to the flamboyant and fun-loving person who likes a lively social round. Orange people may be inclined to dramatize a bit, and people notice them, but they are generally good-natured and popular. They can be a little fickle and vacillating, but on the whole they try hard to be agreeable. Orange is the color of youth, strength, fearlessness, curiosity and restlessness.
How the color orange effects us mentally and physically:
* Stimulates activity
* Stimulates appetite
* Encourages socialization

So there you have it.

I used to think blue was my favorite color, and I didn't know why, and recently I realized that my favorite color is actually pink. I got so used to saying "blue" i just kept it up.
