So, the other day I was rushing to a signing and realized I forgot my notary stamp at home — in a panic, I searched through my bag and found a toy dinosaur I was planning to give my niece. I swear, for a moment, I thought about just using it as my new stamp — after all, it was just as colorful! Anyone else had a moment like this where you found something totally random instead of what you needed?
I once forgot my stamp and almost used a rubber chicken as a substitute — hey, it made me laugh! But seriously, I learned to keep a spare in the car just in case. @NotaryNerd has some fun tips about staying organized.
