ohdaesu1 really hit the nail on the head with this gift. His note said that he took the heat into consideration with the gift selection, and, well, this is the first time this summer I've been glad it's hot!

My awesome gifter got me MY VERY FIRST SUPERSOAKER EVER! Yeah, my parents didn't believe in "guns," so the only squirt guns I ever had were the really crappy party favor ones from birthday parties. I can't wait to break this bad boy in, especially since it was 111° F today!

After I'm done soaking ALL THE THINGS, I can come back in to enjoy an iced-out drank, with my hiphopsicles. I'm a little too excited to freeze these puppies up!

Additionally, I got some pop rocks, ring pops, and little boxes of grape gum; my gifter must have seen that I frequent /r/snackexchange, and like random acts of candy! I can throw these back while reading my new book, "The Age of Wonder." It looks like it's right up my alley, and is jumping the line to the front of my backlog of books to read!

And finally, ohdaesu1 got my wife some soaps! Two bars that smell really good, and a whole bag of octopus-shaped soaps!

Thank you so much, ohdaesu1! Your gift is awesome!
