Good Looks

The winter weather condition really gives commuters a challenge on the road, plus a longer commuting time to work. Despite all that, I'm surprised that I am actually benefiting from the extra quality time I spend in the car chatting with dad who drives me to work every day.

Thanks to the snow and the slow traffic which got me to know more of my dad, learnt how popular he claimed to be when he was young. Not sure how much mom knows about it, but I was half smiling while listening, because it was so much bragging. I take most of his words, not he is my dad, but obviously the genes run in the family and I have half of that! :) From the old photos I remembered, he was really one attractive man in his twenties.

In reality, world is cruel. So I did not really inherit the good look gene from dad. My aunts and grandma were beautiful. Certainly there is a capacity of pity about missing that gene. It is alright, I was in Math and work in tech, full blown good looks would just over kill. Having just right is appropriate .. perfect.

Speaking of good looks, don't you find good looking couples make ugly babies, and ugly couples make great looking ones? Is that fair, when fairness works out in the second round instead of the first? I am not sure how the bio magic works either, but by patterning my observation seems pretty far right.
