Strange Memories

When I got up this morning, I was thinking about my grandma, and how we used to go toy shopping (window shopping of course). I remember her, several times, threatening to buy me a Barbie doll if I misbehaved. I remember being so worried she would carry out her threat. I wanted Stompers and Tonka Trucks. And later, Transformers and GI Joe. Once in a while I got a Stomper. Got lots of Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars. Had one Tonka dumptruck (die cast). But we were so poor all I got were the generic Transformers rip-offs, the K-bots (K-Mart).

Ah, memories.
