This Colorful World

September 17, 2022 / Conal

Before I was married to an artist, I saw the world in simple colors.

Green was green. Whether it was your run-of-the-mill fescue grass you find on suburban Canadian prairie lawns or the coarse baize covering a billiard table, the color was simply green.

Same for blue. Whether it was the crystal-clear sky on a cloudless day or the inimitable, googly-eyed Cookie Monster, the color was simply blue.

The Ballcap Rainbow

My artist wife walked into my basement office and noticed my baseball caps hanging on the wall.

Immediately, a look climbed across her face. It was one of those unmistakable looks that only a husband notices.

I no-sold noticing.

Meanwhile, her eyes continued to slide their way along the width of the entire wall in my office, which was adorned by a new, white baseball cap rack running the entire length of the soft blue paint. Her eyes finally came to rest on me sitting at my desk.
