/Sounds like "WAHS" (as in "water") + "kah" (as in "car")/
In Peru, completely wasted, hammered beyond any point of recovery. When someone is huasca they are not just tipsy: they are done for the night and there is no coming back until morning.
“No puedo creer que llegara huasca a la reunión del lunes.”
“I cannot believe he showed up completely wasted to the Monday morning meeting.”
“Se metió unos piscos y en veinte minutos ya estaba huasca perdido.”
“He had a few piscos and twenty minutes later he was absolutely gone.”

Echar la foca
To laze around doing absolutely nothing productive: lying on the couch, staring at the ceiling, maybe snacking. Used in Mexico. The image is a seal (foca) flopped on a rock going nowhere fast. There is no shame in it though, sometimes a full day of pure idleness is exactly what you need to recharge.
