I was at work, and our store had reopened recent after a HUGE upgrade. We went from a smallish building to a massive warehouse woth 4x the items we use to have and upgraded systems. We haf a big inspection coming up, so we were all getting ready for it making sure every last detail was perfect. For a moment i was at my register and boss man was working next to me. He told me to do something and then walked off. I said 'ok sure no problem' over my shoulder as i kept working. In our conference room there was to be a meeting for a reunion of old college guys. They came in, there were 12, and headed towards the room. They had a red jacket with a yellow emblem which i couldnt see, and they worr it backwards. This was all they wore, the backwards sports jacket. I quickly turned around covering my eyes going "oh dear. I did NOT want to see that." And i grabbed a armful of stuff and proceeded to head back to the warehouse storeage room. The doors were the simple swinging back and fourth kind that could be opened from any direction, yet as i got closer to the door i was wondering how i would open it. As I continued walking, a coworker passed by asking "hey, you want em to get the door for you?" And i replied, "no, its ok i think I got it" giving a warm smile as I continued to the door. As i got to the door, an older skinny gentleman with soft white hair, in a blue polo shirt, and slate grey pants opened it for. "Oh! You didnt have to do that! Thank you so much for helping me." I said. The gentleman replied "no, its ok. I wanted to help". As i entered the storage area i turned back and adked him to wait for me, that i wanted to give him a gift for being so kind. He said he didnt need anything but i insisted. So agreed to wait for me. I set the things down and wondered what I could give him. A coworker suggested a shirt. "I dont know we have one big enough. I need a 4x" i said even knowing how skinny the old man was. I checked the conveyor belts and couldnt find a single a shirt. I decided the best i could do was a soda. I went back to the door and peeked out the window to see if he was still waiting. All i was was a naked old guy wearing only socks and brown shoes kistening to music while napping on the floor. Extremely embarrassed, quickly left window and headed towards the vending machine for a couple dr peppers. The sleeping man was gone when i exited the doors to the main floor, and the old guy was patiently waiting close to the door looking casually at tvs and empty shelving units. I handed him a dr papper and said "thanks for being so patient and waiting. Im sorry it took so long. Its not much, but heres a drink for you". The man took the soda and said "oh its fine. Thank you for the drink I really appreciate it." And then walked off. As I turned and other younger tall skinny man had his back to me. Inoffered the 2nd dr pepper to him. It was Dr Sheldon Cooper(from the big bang theory) and he smiled, gave me a big hug and said, "why thank you! You are now my most favorite person in the world!"

Me and a girl were in the woods by the lake. We were trying to get to the cabin right by a parking lot where my husband was waiting. As i looked over he waved and yelled "y'all hurry up!" And we waved back, starting to head his direction. The path, like in most off trail places, was very uneven and some places you had to use a tree to hoist yourself up over a steep hill. We kept along the lake edge making our way across so we knew we wouldnt get lost. I was fall, the forrest floor was covered in gold and red leaves, the lakes water was so perfectly still it was like a mirror just reflecting the sky. Even though it wasnt far, our venture back to the cabin seemed rather long and tedious. We also had to makensure to be quiet because there was a bear that was suppose to be sleeping. As we continued, we were almost there. It was the last hill and then it was the home stretch. As i climbed up, i saw black fur. "Wait turn back! We have to go around!" I said. I looked back at the fur and it was a sleeping black bear cub. I sighed in relief saying "nevermind. Its just a baby bear". I looked over by the lake and noticed there was a bit of a drop off, dry patch right next to the lake that you couldnt see. "Oh no. Wait." I said, as the mama bear woke up and looked at us. "Oh crap shes awake" i said, "we gotta move now!" And we hurdled the hill as the bear stood up and began coming after us. We ran and made it to the parking lot where my husband was waiting. As i looked back, the mama bear and her cub were at the forests edge, they stared for a few seconds then turned back going back into the woods as me, the girl, and my husband calmly walked across the parking lot to the cabin.
