FIELD NOTES
When I was six years old, I wanted a Voltron robot toy. It cost $30.00. My parents would not buy it for me. I had an allowance of $3.00 per week. My parents said if I wanted Voltron, I could save up my allowance until I had enough to buy it. The next ten or so weeks felt like a lifetime. But I remember the day my parents told me I had enough money. I remember going to Toys-R-Us. I remember carrying Voltron to the checkout counter. I remember handing the money to the lady on my own. And I remember loving that toy more than any other toy I had. I took care of it better than any other toy. It was then, and remains now, my favorite toy that I ever owned.
