One of the greatest things about being an adult....

.... is that you don't have to wait for other people to take you on adventures.

The other day I got a wild hankering to go to the aquarium. First I herped around the idea for a few days, checked out the Seattle Aquarium's website, and then thought about asking a few friends  if they would like to go or not.

And then it struck me.

I was an adult.
I could go to the aquarium any day I liked.
I didn't have to wait to see if anyone wanted to go on some far off date.

I could just go to the aquarium.
