Need Mentor in San Diego

I'm a new notary in North County San Diego. So far I've been studying the handbook, asking questions, and the like...but what would be really helpful would be to be able to tag along with an experienced notary/signing agent and observe them during some signings. Anyone out there who wouldn't mind mentoring a new notary?

My email address is : [e-mail address]

Many thanks!

I'm not sure how to handle this. A new notary who is actually trying to learn how to do the job BEFORE his first signing? Why that idea is just crazy enough to work!

I'm a little far from you (Los Angeles) but if you strike out in SD and are willing to make the drive up here, let me know. I'll email you my info.

Envious & Jealous

Cali - I want your email because I am always thinking of something too silly to say here, but I can't get to you.

In fact, you came up in conversation the other day...my son wants to go to a sporting event in California.

(Mock me and scoff, but I have no idea what it is
and, won't pretend to--too busy for sports,
except for my Aggies [--don't say a word, Hugh--],
but it must be a big deal for My-Son-the-Scrooge
to turn loose of his dollars.)

I told him, well...let me just email CaliNotary-- I am sure he'd be glad to put you up for a few days! Of course, I was just kidding about that--actually, the game (or whatever it is) is in San Diego--but there again I realized I think of you and don't have your email.

Once I have your email, however, I'll be sending
you MY flight schedule. I plan to come to spend
a few days. I am sure you'll be happy to take a week off so
we can put on Mickey Mouse ears and go do
Disneyland.

Dang, I can't remember the last time I was at Disneyland. It must be close to 15 years now. I'm definitely overdue. I'm sure the board will survive without me yelling at people for one day. A couple of weeks ago I had a signing a few minutes away from Six Flags Magic Mountain. I had the whole afternoon free and was seriously tempted to run over there for a few hours. But I figured it was too expensive (almost fifty bucks to get in now) and it wouldn't be very much fun by myself, so I went and ate at I-Hop instead. Which was almost as fun I'm sure.

It was sweet of you to think of me to provide free room and board to your son though

BTW, you have my email now.
