Colours and days of the week

So, something I found interesting on QI last night was that nearly everyone associates the days of the week with colours, subconsciously. The reason I found this interesting was because I've always had colours I associate with days of the week, I thought it was just me - so does anybody else do it?

For me:

Monday: Red (pinkish)
Tuesday: Bright, sunny yellow
Wednesday: Deep sky blue
Thursday: Darker than Tuesday, a more golden yellow
Friday: Green
Saturday: Dark blue
Sunday: Purple-red
 
Yes, for ages!
Monday = Blue
Tuesday = Green
Wednesday = Yellow
Thursday = Dark Green
Friday = Red
Saturday = Pink or White
Sunday = Pale Blue
 
I never have. Wait- nearly everyone?! You mean I'm the strange one here? xD I thought it was Stephen and whichever contestant it was that also did it that were weird. But Stephen rules, so that's ok.

Seriously though, I don't get how a day can have a colour =s
 
Monday: I don't know. I'm trying, but it just... doesn't work.
Tuesday: Yellow.
Wednesday: See Monday.
Thursday: Yellow.
Friday: See Monday.
Saturday: Red.
Sunday: Green.
 
Woop!
Monday = Orangey Dark Red
Tuesday = Darkish Blue
Wednesday = Darkish Green
Thursday = Brown
Friday = Almost Black
Saturday = Redish
Sunday = Yellowy White

=P
 
Monday: Black. Black like the very pits of hell. Blue.
Tuesday: Pink
Wednesday: Black
Thursday: Brown/grey
Friday: Light purple
Saturday: Dark purple
Sunday: Yellow

I blame this entirely on the day siblings (and the items they give you) from G/S/C.
 
:3 Ah yes, the QI colour discussion.

Monday's blue.
Tuesday's a Limeish green.
Wednsday's black -.-
Thurday's Yellow.
Friday's a White color
Saturday's orange.
Sunday is purple.
 
I'M NOT ALONE!!! Actually, I'm like this for almost every word and number. ^^;

Sunday: Gold
Monday: Grayish-Purplish
Tuesday: Scarlet
Wednesday: Olive
Thursday: Wheat-colored
Friday: Yellow
Saturday: Blue
 
Sunday: Yellow
Monday:Green
Tuesday: Red
Wednesday: Blue
Thursday: Purple
Friday: A Dark Navy Blue
Saturday: Orange
 
I really don't know. I usually never associate colors with days, but I do with months... But I think everyone does that. :D
 
Monday: Black
Tuesday: Brown
Wednesday: Navy Blue
Thursday: Forest Green
Friday: White
Saturday: Red
Sunday: Grey

No particular reasoning behind it, except that Monday is the start of the school week, which leads me to thinking of darkness and anger...
 
Monday - Red
Tuesday - Red
Wednesday - Red
Thursday - Red
Friday - Red
Saturday - Yellow
Sunday - Slightly darker yellow.

Probably due to a poster I had when I was younger to tack me the days of the week. These were the colours (except Saturday and Sunday were exactly the same yellow) and the week was circular, with Monday/Tuesday at the top, and as you go clockwise, the week goes on. I like it in these colours; the weekdays are red because it's a darker colour and although I do sort of like red, this shade that I imagine is the evil kind, so I dislike it just like how I dislike school. Weekends are yellow because they feel bright because I'm free during the day. Sunday is now darker in my mind because I dislike Sundays more than Saturdays because of the fact that it's school the next day, I have to do the work I put off on Saturday and I have to have Sunday dinner which I hate.

While I'm at it I'll describe how I imagine other things. I don't gave months or years colours, but I imagine the months as a ladder shape thing, with January being in the lowest gap between the 'steps' and December being on top. August seems brighter without actually having colour because it's the Summer holidays =D

As for years, I see them as a line, lower being to the left. The further back you go, the darker the years look. It only gets completely black until you reach the first year, whenever that is.
 
Monday: Red
Tuesday: Blue
Wednesday: Orange
Thursday: Brown
Friday: Orange
Saturday: Not sure
Sunday: Yellow or white depending on my mood
 
Thursday is dark green, but I don't have any for the other days of the week... I don't think...
 
monday grey.
tuesday tan.
wednesday darker grey.
thursday greyish blue.
friday washed out red, but not pink.
saturday pinkish.
sunday yellow gold.
