Need help with probability

 

My sock drawer contains two red socks, two white socks, and two blue socks.  For three days in a row, I pull out two socks out of my sock drawer at random.  What is the probability that I get matching socks on all three days?

there is 6 ways it could happen: r, b, w   r, w, b  b, r,w  and so on blah blah blah

and there are 6*6*6 total possibilities so 

6/6*6*6 is 1/36
