The day I notarized a love letter

You wouldn’t believe it, but I once had a couple asking me to notarize their love letters to each other. It was a surreal experience — like they wanted a legal commitment before the romantic one! It’s proof that not all notary work is just dry paperwork. Anyone else have funny or unexpected notary stories?
