I have odd eyes as well. My right is a light blue while my left is the same light blue on the top half with the bottom half being brown. My eyes have been this way I’m told since I was a toddler but were originally all blue. One of the most interesting aspects of this though seems to be who notices and the reaction of the people that notice. You’d be surprised at how many people I’ve known for years have never noticed. It sure makes it easy to figure out if someone is actually looking into your eyes or looking through you.

An old lover of mine used to tell me that my normally very blue eyes turn to grey when I’m “in the mood.”

Australian Shepherd?  
Cute.  
But last time I looked in the pasture they were cows. Now I’m gonna run out and round them up so I can milk them for all their worth.
