Barbie and Me

Posted on March 7, 2009 by Jo

I
never imagined that BARBIE and I had anything in common, but it seems
that we do.  Sort of.  Both of us are turning 50 next week. 

Barbie's 50th birthday is the 9th, and mine is the 10th.  But!  I was
born in Pakistan on the 10th, which was still the 9th in US, so we may
actually share the same birthday….for whatever it's worth. 

To
celebrate Barbie's 50th, she's getting her own store in Shanghai.

I
think I may have had a Barbie when I was young.  I don't remember.  I
do remember my trolls and matchbook cars, though!
