http://twitpic.com/v3tez - 4 hours later... it's finally finished. Looking forward to seeing Liam's face in the morning. #Fatherhood #GiftAs
 |
Step 14 complete. This thing is amazingly huge. #Fatherhood #GiftAssembly
Hoover Dam! The fake grill on the Little Tikes Sizzle & Serve Kitchen takes 3 "D" batteries. #Fatherhood #GiftAssembly
Step 12 complete. Yet more drilling. Ugh. And to think that this is a children's toy! #Fatherhood #GiftAssembly
Step 11 complete. Was delayed after crying in the fetal position for 5 minutes. #Fatherhood #GiftAssembly
Step 10 complete. I really hope Liam likes this gift. #Fatherhood #GiftAssembly
Step 8 was easy. Just finished step 9. More drilling. Ugh.
Step 7 complete. Starting to think that the assembly of the Little Tikes Sizzle & Serve Kitchen should be classified as NP-hard.
Step 7 in-progress. Wife is giving me strange looks for swearing at a plastic toy. #Fatherhood #GiftAssembly
Step 6 complete. Have officially declared this gift the worst idea in the history of man. Auchentoshan, my old friend. How are you? ;)
Step 5 complete. POS-whatever-the-Hell-its-called gift is nearly halfway done. #Fatherhood #GiftAssembly
Step 4 complete. (Thank God I found batteries.) Sweet scotch eases the pain... and stress. #Fatherhood #GiftAssembly
"What the Hell? This thing takes batteries?" The number 1 question asked by fathers on Christmas Eve.
Step 3 complete. Congratulating myself for not having destroyed my son's gift yet. Moving on.
Ugh. The electrical drill has been its appearance. It's all downhill from here. #GiftAssembly
Step 2 complete. Step 2a: Take a sip of Auchentoshan and ponder why the hell you bought this gift. #Fatherhood #XmasEve #HellOnEarth
Step 1 complete. Step 2: Bolt crappy-looking sink to fake faucet. #Fatherhood #KidsGift #XmasEve #HellOnEarth
Step 1: Assemble plastic gas stove to bed box. First? A small sip of Auchentoshan. I'd might as well "ease the pain" before it starts!
http://twitpic.com/v35lj - On Christmas Eve, this equates to "some assembly required" for fathers.

Debating a move to scotch after unpacking the Little Tikes Sizzle & Serve Kitchen (AKA, the Father's Nightmare).
http://twitpic.com/v32vd - Epic. The Little Tikes Sizzle & Serve Kitchen comes with fake food (hot dog).

RT @energizedtech: Really enjoying my Toque from #techdays_ca 2008 . Wonder if they would make sweatshirts for 2010? :)
Reviewed instructions for Little Tikes Sizzle & Serve Kitchen. Safety goggles & electrical drill required. Time for another glass of wine.
Update: One glass of red wine done. Little Tikes Sizzle & Serve Kitchen assembly? Well, the box is now open. ;)
I have a bottle of red wine and my son's gift to assemble for tomorrow morning (kid's kitchen playset). Here we go.
Two boys at home now. Wowzers. A much fuller house.
