...is for red (hair). My hair has been, quite obviously, a singularly defining force in my life for as long as I can remember. I have gotten so much attention for it.

Guys, I am getting a bit sick of Encyclopedia of Me. I think I should finish what I've started, but oh, man! It's October first! There are other things to talk about!

Happy October, by the way!
