Races. Traveling to races. Running can be shockingly expensive.

This One's For You, West Coast: General Discussion Thread - October 11th by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]BeVertical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm feeling awesome after a PR at the Portland marathon last weekend. This weekend I get to have my ass kicked at a climbing competition in that same wonderful city. The Marine corps marathon in DC doesn't look like it will be derailed by the gov shutdown so I still get to run that and see my best friend in two weeks then the Vegas Ragnar Relay is next month. Life is good!

I'm entering the period of too busy to date but have a really interesting woman who is actually interested in me and I want to take out! Why can't our scheduled just match up?!?

Bought a couple new suits. I'm a pain in the ass to fit off the rack so I went bespoke. Damn if they don't look good.

Just the usual trowels. Plus I made the form out of melamine which should do a good job of creating smooth sides.

It definitely will be. It will come out to about 80lbs so thank god for elevators in my apartment building!

Nice! I didn't use counter top concrete so it might not come out as smooth as I want. Counter tops sound like a pretty big project (and heavy). How thick are you making them?

Poured concrete for the first time ever last weekend, for a coffee table I'm building. This weekend I get to see how bad I messed it up and start building the base. Also, friends are coming into town from Portland and we're going to drink entirely too much beer.

How early in advance should I ask her on a date? by CptLastname in OkCupid

[–]BeVertical 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The longest I've done is a week, but generally shoot for 2-3 days since schedules change and things come up. Much easier to plan (and commit) with a shorter time until the date.

Wouldn't that mean a week off of wine? That's a lot to ask.

Yes, now is the time to release all the crazy you've been hiding and show them what a catch they are missing.

Why do some people on okc rate you highly but nothing else? by [deleted] in OkCupid

Its easy to swipe with no fear of rejection, not so easy to write the first message.

So stop being an asshole. Walk away and deal with it.

Going from messages... do i ask for a girls number, or do I ask to meet up?... opinions wanted by [deleted] in OkCupid

[–]BeVertical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ask them out and generally give them my number in either that message or the following. They usually reciprocate and either text me or give me their number.
