This summer I was visiting an old boyfriend and his wife, my age. She brought out her Barbies to show them off, she had all the original gear, gold lame sheath, leopard skin pillbox hat, stole, even the itty-bitty charm bracelet. It reminded me of the awful things I used to do to my sister's Barbie with GI Joe, but the friend did not think that was a funny story, nor did my sister, when I reminded her. GI Joe was not anatomically correct, but he had something - more - than Barbie (or Ken). At least, that's what I remember. Some kind of - well, I can visualize it but I can't describe it. Like a u-shaped fold in the plastic, maybe? Is that right? Or am I just confabulating again? |
