Re: to Curious on the eye color thing…

I recently read that geneticists now know that the formerly hard and fast rules regarding eye color are not so hard and fast.

Also, any eye color that is not brown is technically blue, including green, gray and hazel. So a hazel eyed person and a brown eyed person can, indeed, have a blue eyed child.

that’s such a good point, and one I feel I should/must heed. but am loathe to. I so despise the idea of learning code.

ugh.

Those pieces of carrot cake were SMALL! very TINY! and also, “carrot.” That is, contained actual vegetables.

Wow, this is really helpful. I attended the first day, actually i sat with you at one session, but not the others you talk about.

Update blogroll: soon!

Thank you SO much for this summary. I should have been there but I goofed off at the pool instead. Some things never change : )

Thanks for the info on the subdomain! I had no idea and I actually have several for rent. Everytime anyone does a search for “Mocha” they end up with something in the porn industry.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Wow. I learned something new again. Thanks for the info since I didn’t make it to those sessions.

After Lisa and Lynne’s writing class, I realized that those whimsical subject lines that I had so much fun creating? Not so useful for searching! Oh well, it’s not like anyone is going to be googling about most of my topics anyway.

Thanks for the summary! I went to a lot of the same sessions and managed to take pretty good notes until the last class, where I zoned out completely like a high school senior in June.

Here I was feeling stupid for being hungover the first day and missing all the workshops and now…I can catch up with it all! It’s just like copying off your homework, Julie!

Did you say on Amalah that your dd has blue eyes and you and her dad don’t?

Just curious…we have a similar situation and have had dr’s (wtf?) tell us that “its genetically impossible for a brown eyed parent and green eyed/hazel eyed parent to have a blue eyed child”

are you similiarly having the impossible?

Seriously curious…
