We're all dark too, but only a few of us have dark eyes. My brother looks like the Russian side, and I look like the Irish/English side. Genetics are so weird.
Yeah, I'm a pretty standard Russian jew. Dark hair, eyes and olive skin. When DD1 was born I got excited that she had my skin complexion but that just turned out to be jaundice
Pets? Are you blond? All the Russians I know are blond. Where in Russia? My great-grandfather defected from St. Petersburg in the mid 1800s.
2 cats. They went to live with my inlaws for 2 months after our house was a construction zone from a drunk driver crashing into it. Came back about a month ago and well, I think they like it at the ILs' better.
I'm from St Petersburg as well and very much a brunette. My kids however look nothing like me with their blond hair, blue eyes and I've been asked if I'm a nanny before.
Been lurking for a long time and ashbride's asinine comment made me come out of hiding.
About me....married 5 years (together 10),two kids 7 and 3. Originally from Russia but I've been here 20 years, favorite drink of choice is vodka. Always, always vodka.
Ask me anything, I'm excited to start posting here finally.
Last election, J went around town with a bunch of friends and stole every single Obama sign in town. They never found out who it was (someone better alert Officer. M!), but it was in the papers, on the radio, on the news, everything. I remember hearing about it. Who knew a couple years later I would be marrying him!
So your husband is as much of a douche as you are. You two were made for each other
