If you woke up and I was in bed with you, what would be your first thought?
Post a reply, then post this in your LJ and find out what my answer would be.

On the other hand, if i HAVE woken up in bed with you... post that.

In 1994, I was driving through Des Moines when the first snow storm of the year hit. My car ended up in the middle of the highway stuck in the wet grass and snow. After getting a few doors slammed in my face and waiting for a tow truck to come, a woman in a sports car stopped and offered to take me somewhere warmer to wait. After running a couple of errands she dropped me off at a nearby gas station where I began my three hour wait for a truck to rescue me and my car.

Tonight, while I was driving home, I saw a silouette of a man frantically waving by the side of a near-dead car on the side of the road. I don't recall thinking that I should stop but I found myself stopped then backing up at the side of the road not 50 feet from his car. He asked to use my cell phone and I told him to hop in so I could take him to the gas station up the road. He gave his service more information than I've provided my bank to open an account but, after a few minutes, he said they'd be there in 30 minutes to pick him up and rescue his car.

I never knew the name of my savior that evening and Troy he never asked (and I never offered) mine. But I hope that in the years to come, he'll think fondly of that nice stranger who decided to take a break from their busy schedule and help out someone in need just like I think of that woman who helped me.
