2004

  My aunt came from Peru in the Summer of 2004. 
  She brought with her a kid-sized doll. It was a present 
  for me. The doll had a colorful gym leotard on
  and when you pressed the button on her chest,
  she would sing a work-out song. 
  
  I felt bad that I didn't want my present. So, I
  kept it in my room. It stood next the small TV 
  stand that held my Micky Mouse TV. When my aunt 
  went back to Peru, I kept the doll in my room. 
  Because it was a present from her and I don't 
  see her much, at all. I didn't want my parents 
  to think I didn't like it. So, I kept it for 
  years, wiping off the dust when needed.
