Wanton Hubris

So I’ve never owned a grill before. I know that calls my manliness into question but it’s true. My wife and I went out today and bought one because we figured it was time.

As we’re loading it into her truck, a guy comes up and offers to help out. I gladly accept and once we’re done he compliments me on the grill.

As we’re pulling out, another guy walks by and upon seeing the grill, gives me a big thumbs up and a smile and jokingly calls out, “When’s the barbeque!?”

We get home and I ask my neighbor to give me a hand lugging it into the backyard. He does and then we have a conversation about the grill, it’s specs, and we left off with my being tasked to report back to him later as to how this grill performs.

I feel like I’ve gained membership into some sort of club that I had no idea existed.
