Meeting your favorite Broadway star and talking to them for 5 minutes.
Going to the ocean and realizing that there is no salt so that it doesn't get in your hair and you don't accidentally inhale salt water and get sick--and you have a GREAT day at the beach because you can actually go swimming instead of just reading as usual.
Seeing your favorite band in concert in your town--no traveling three hours away.
The course of true love never did run smooth.
