My first one was a waste...literally
I live in a rural area south of New Orleans right off the Mississippi. I pull up 5 minutes ahead of time and call, no answer. I grab briefcase and get out the truck. I knock on the door to no avail but see a shed slightly to the left of the main building. I'll investigate, so I walk around to the side calling "Hello? Anyone home?" Then I see him. My borrower is sitting (or rather sprawled) on an old Farmall tractor with his shirt unbuttoned. Odd, but I trod on. I call out to him to no answer.
It was then that I noticed the 1/5th of cheap whiskey and said "oh good lord..." He roused himself as I got closer and quite literally hollered at me "Let's DO this!" To which I promptly replied, "Sir, you are not of proper cognizance to be signing anything. I'm going to call and let them know we need to reschedule." His answer was slurred, but I believe as follows: "Suits me just fine, I'm going make pancakes with little Molly." Don't know, don't want to know. Now I'm waiting for me next which is the opposite direction from my house but only 10 minutes away. What did I ever do in a previous life or this one?
