Adulthood

Sometimes you just need to draw something silly. (And if you know where that hat is from, you earn +5 nerd points)

Recently I've been doing "grown-up" things like working, worrying, and general stuffiness. I tolerate it for a majority of the day, then go home to be silly.

Put on my mismatched pajamas, read my weekly adventure comics, and watch my favorite band take off their pants on stage. On a good day, I'll go out with friends to drink, then play on the park swings after hours. On a great day, the bats come out just after dark.

Or if it's a raining, we stay inside and play a video game. Usually it's one that involves hitting monsters for gold and experience. Yelling at the TV is not required, but it seems natural after kicking a giant in the shins.

And if I must go solo, there's tons of fun to be had around town. Zoos, aquariums, museums, galleries, parks, forests, caves... I want to see them all.

So maybe I'm not really a "grown up" by some people's standards. But those people can stuff it, because there are adventures to be had and I refuse to miss any of them.
