“Oh, brace yourself for another doll story,” Harley said, half-smiling. “This is yet another sore spot, of course, because my dolls are forgotten about, but my mother’s dolls are the ones that get to have their own space in the china cabinet. Anyway. Do you remember those career-oriented Barbies they released in the eighties when a feminist commentator got angry at Barbie only being pretty?” When Denise nodded, Harley went on. “Well, my father would take me to the toy store all the time after our errands—okay, looking back I know his errand was so clearly buying a fifth so he could drink it that night—but forget that for a moment. He took me to the toy store and always let me pick out what I wanted as long as it was under a certain amount. That Barbie was expensive, though. At least, expensive to me. He didn’t want to part with his drinking money, and while that might seem irresponsible, it was also perfect. I had an allowance, he told me, and instead of getting something small every week, I could save and get something big. Like that special edition Barbie.”
