"The Best" is when...
you make that unplanned phone call and talk for an hour.
you skip lunch, work all afternoon, and find that someone else has dinner ready.
you surprise a surly woman by making her laugh.
elves refill your gas tank when you weren't watching.
you buy a stranger coffee and hold a decent conversation.
Yeah. Those are hard to beat. Anybody want to try? What does it for you?

But, here's an unplanned moment:
You tell a corny joke about mushrooms to your 7th grade students (they're studying fungi right now) and they laugh before they remember they're 'too cool' to laugh.
Jon! I'm getting ready for work right now, but I will get off early and call you. Welcome home! So sorry things are not going well.
