Is it just me ?

No, sorry. Days, months, years, numbers, none of these is anything but what they are. I am a very straightforward person and don't see things in colour or different shapes. It's a wonder that I dream in colour.

This is great that so many of us view months, weeks, in visual ways, especially those who use colour.

It's interesting Ana that your days of the week are coloured. If you arrange to meet someone on a Wednesday to you immediately see yellow?

And yes Jing in my mind's eye this ellipse, sideways egg does have a side, well let's perhaps say left and right surface. March is on the far left.

Well Joy I can see your century quite clearly.

Now to take things to a higher level. I see the number 5 as female and 6 as male.

Over to you.

Hmmm, very interesting, NanKate! I see the calendar year as four rows, each consisting of three months, working down from the top. (Top row is Jan - March, below that is April - June, and so on...) and I just assumed that was how everybody saw it, but obviously not! Days of the week are all in a line, beginning with Monday and I can see two weeks at a time.
Years are in rows of tens - the 20th century is a vertical stack of 10 rows working upwards, each reading from left to right, however... this century has started with 2001 to 2010 reading from right to left and 2011 onwards positioned above, going left to right. So, when it gets to 2021, I presume I'll do a sharp left turn and start moving right to left again in a sort of squared-off spiral!

Sadly, no colour anywhere!

Gosh I am so thick,I can't quite believe it. Days are days, months are months and numbers are numbers. Should I be concerned?

My day lines go to the left, Jane! How odd, now I think about it - I'm not left-handed.

I had never heard of this.

I believe what people have described here - especially seeing letters and numbers in colour - falls under the definition of synaesthesia.

It makes me feel really ordinary

I see the numbers 1-100 in a curving path as they appeared on the snakes and ladders board I had as a child. After 100 they all just go off to the right

Days of the week in a continuous line to the right. They don't have a colour, but each day has a different feel and level of energy.

My days and months have no shape, just distinct colours. Peoples' names all have colours too. I often use the 'colour scheme' when counting days as it,s quicker than reciting the full word to myself. Interesting. I didn't know anyone else saw colours in words.

Yes, I see the days of the week in a straight line as well, but there isn't an end - I can see into next week as well.

Days have their individual colours too, e.g. Monday is scarlet, Tuesday crimson, Wednesday yellow, Thursday blue etc.

Does an egg have a side?

I think it's amazing you know what "ellipse" means.

I see the months and the days of the week in a straight line, since you mention it, stretching away.
