Gift giving woes

The Boyfriend's birthday is April 4. Normally, this
wouldn't be a problem -- it's still a little while off --
but his parents have invited us to his home for a
celebration over Easter weekend. (How this might dovetail
with his own high opinion of himself, I'll leave to your
Christian imagination.) This effectively shortens by about
a week the shopping time I have. :-(

My fallback alternative is to get him a really nice
fountain pen. I know he likes them, despite the horrid way
he treats his pens. (I say this as the person he comes to
when he needs a problem fixed.)

Any ideas?
