Big news in the world of my head, as I recently purchased a Raptors toque. My collection of toques is now up to seven, which means that if I wanted to (and you better BELIEVE I want to), I could wear a different toque on each day of the week. A rotation of haberdashery, if you will.
Also, I seem to have unintentionally created a rainbow of headwear for myself. I now own a....
* red toque (Raptors)
* blue toque (Blue Jays)
* green toque (Packers)
* mostly yellow toque (Packers)
* yellow-green-white toque (Packers...I should note that these Green Bay toques were all Christmas gifts, as even I would find it excessive to buy three different toques in support of the same team.)
* black toque (my 'winter is coming' Game Of Thrones hat)
* grey toque (my plain hat that looks not unlike the kind worn by the Edge, which was intentional)
I'm only a few colours away from being a regular Roy G. Biv. I guess I could get a purple toque in honour of my alma mater, though Western's taken so much of my money that I'm hesitant to give them another dime. (Donation letters and e-mails make me laugh and laugh and laugh.) Not sure what chain of events would lead me to buying an orange toque. I do like orange juice, at least. That would actually be a pretty hilarious answer to hear from somebody about their clothing choices:
"Nice orange toque."
"Thanks! I love orange juice."
Why a Raptors toque, you may ask? Well, it looked kinda cool. Drake and I do share a birthday, and all. My grandma attended a Raptors preseason game years ago and the team's PR staff really went out of their way to show her a good time; moved her seats closer to the floor, got her pictures and autographs with several players, etc. If this team is so kind to my grandmother, the least I can do is buy a toque out of appreciation. This isn't to say that all of my toques were purchased due to some family association. House Stark has never done anything for my grandma --- she wasn't even invited to Robb's wedding. (Wait...)
