What thing did I forget that is probably related to the following list of various things that might be the details of the thing I might have forgotten probably?

• A dumpster
• Muddy, slippery ground
• I slipped in some mud?
• Feelings of inadequate height
• The dumpster might have been taller than I am, and I do not like that about dumpsters because they are very difficult to climb into?
• At least one baby raccoon
• A very ripped up blue plastic bag
• The raccoon was maybe inside the very ripped up blue plastic bag?
• Lots of screeching
• So much screeching
• It hurt my ears, I know that
• The moon looking very judgmental
• The moon did not say anything, I doubt, but it looked very judgmental probably
• Handling very fragile things
• Moving things with my teeth, which are not very good for handling very fragile things
• Moving very fragile things with my teeth even though I know that handling very fragile things with my teeth is not a great idea
• Maybe the bag was fragile?
• Maybe the baby raccoon inside the bag was fragile?
• Oh, there are faint memories or even more screeching
• It is difficult to stress just how much screeching there was
• The baby raccoon was definitely contributing to the screeching
• I think wanting to find a place for something was involved, but I do not know
• Finding a very warm place to rest my face in my cave because I wanted to be warm
• But I always want to be warm?
• I think I found the baby raccoon in the blue bag
• I was definitely very hungry during all of whatever this was
• But I am always very hungry?
• I wanted to help the baby raccoon
• And it was inside a plastic blue bag and screeched a lot
• The moon was just so judgmental
• Why were you so mad at me, moon? What had I done to you?
• So maybe it was night
• That seems reasonable
• The screeching is in my mind, though
• And that baby raccoon
• Oh no
• I remember now
• I had to find a warm place for that baby raccoon I found in the dumpster because it was very clearly very upset about being inside the dumpster and I think I left the blue bag and the baby raccoon in my cave
• Oh no, the bag is still in the corner of my cave but the baby raccoon is not
• Um
• There is no baby raccoon anywhere
• I checked all around my cave
• And all over the place
• Um
• Well
• Oops
• I hope it is okay
• It is, right?

I am a bear.
