Okay, so I embellished a bit. OKAY FINE, I'm way off. But still, getting stuff for being a cool Dad is cool.
Remember my berfday when I got this? Well, little did I know that The Wifey had already acquired my Father's Day gift at that point. Little, that is, until she said, "I already have your Father's Day gift." Then she tried to give it to me. Several times. I had to tell her repeatedly that the gift she got was for Father's Day and that if she gave it to me early then what would I have on Father's Day?
Well, that lasted a couple weeks. One day - not Father's Day - I came home from work and was presented with this:
That, ladies and gentlemen, is a Char-Broil Quantum Infrared Urban Gas Grill. That's 21,000 BTUs of steak-searing heat, built into a compact, 2-burner unit perfect for a family of three. All stainless, all the time. Yep. I has one.
Well, not content to leave my Father's Day present-less, The Wifey and The Little Girl conspired to sweeten the deal, both literally and figuratively. Literally, by getting me some Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream (which I never get because The Wifey doesn't like cookie dough - blasphemous, I know - so I'm nice and get something she likes) and some oversized cookies with which to combine into ice cream sandwiches. *squee!!!* Figuratively, by getting me the first two seasons of my favorite currently-running TV show, House, MD. I am loved, and I have proof;)

Sweeet! Because of regulations we're limited to a Weber Q-100 grill on our little balcony. My wife got it as a "generous" 30-year present from the Big Private University where she works.
