No point in being nervous, just be awesome. Shower beforehand, and dress nicely but casually.

wagon you say?

why so nervous, is this someone you have met before, or an online deal? I never worry about the first date, it is pretty much just a test. It is the 3rd and beyond when I know it is interesting do I get nervous

First date so expect the unexpected.

Unexpected response to your post is Montego:

Just helping you get ready!

That wagon is perfect. Thank you!

I know her pretty well, I just haven't been on a first date in years. Combination of not really caring and being too broke to afford taking a girl out haha

I just hope I'm not too horribly awkward!

Here's a Porsche for you. Try to relax..........take some deep breaths. I imagine your date is just as nervous as you are.

I think the Montego is always a good response. Awesome car, Montego. A full-size coupe, Montego. Car you lost your virignity in, Montego?

...maybe not that last one....

I haven't seen any nonsense from him recently. I figured he got bitch slapped back to yesterday by one of his "conquests".

Hey man, you never know when you might score on the first date. Smelling nice is important.

All but the last one, haha I was already married for over a year when I bought the Montego (and had never seen one in person before I bought the one I found). If I was over a year into marriage and still a virgin, I think I would've had bigger issues to be concerned with!

Man, I can't re-find that post. Hes probably off at a bar, talking to 50 different woman at once, using his 'techniques'.

According to him, the secretary is totally hitting on me because she asked to borrow my stapler. I promptly told her no. Even my boss is hitting on me! "Can you attend the 1pm meeting?" "No". I'm irresistible!

Yeah yeah. Congrats on your looming 10y anniversary, old man!

Haha, maybe conceived? I did the maths, and discovered my daughter was conceived around my wife's birthday. My daughter was born a couple days before my birthday. So its like a double gift!

haha, well not that I like to think about it, but neither of my parents ever owned a Montego so that's out (thankfully)

lol, that would be our 10 year dating, we just rolled past the 5 year wedding 2 months ago. and I'm surprisingly young, despite the long term marriage, old car, buying my second house and having a kid - just turned 28


Kinja'd!!! zeontestpilot > MontegoMan562 is a Capri RS Owner
07/31/2014 at 16:42

Kinja'd!!!1

You just gave me a thought. Since I am the first born, and I love making my parents feel awkward (its my role in the family I think), I'm gonna ask them where I was conceived.

Now I just got to figure out if I should text and ask, or wait til dinner when we all head to Frankenmuth tonight, lol.

Ahh. I just broke up with my HS sweetheart, lol.

I'm 20, so pretty close actually. The second house is probably the most impressive part of the lot, honestly. Having my own child in 8 years scares the shit out of me, though.

Would have scared me at 20. And you could say she's my College sweetheart lol we started dating beginning of my sophomore, her freshman year at Michigan State. Never stopped lol

Yeah bought our first house 4.5 years ago. so I was.....23 when I bought a house.

I'm in MI though and it's cheaper to buy a house if you can scrape together a down payment then it is to rent. Prices are coming back so I jumped on the opportunity for an upgrade, making a nice 25% profit on the first house.

It's definitely like that with the housing market in Texas, I just don't think I want to be tethered to College Station for the time being, so I rent. I've definitely thought about buying a house and renting out a few rooms to pay for the mortgage and then some.

I was also graduated, married, and in my 2nd position in my career field when I bought I wouldn't have while still in college.

You at TAMU?

Yes, computer engineering. I work full time, so it isn't quite cut and dry, but that was pretty much my logic. I'd like to explore/settle down in more interesting areas.

Ha, can you imagine? That would a great youtube channel. Dates with the "cool" comic book/movie villains. You want to get together and make it happen, there could be some youtube ad revenue in it for us.

Yeah no harm in wandering a bit. I knew I wanted to be in Automotive Advertising so the Metro-Detroit area was kind of the place to be. In fact I turned down an almost identical salary and job description job in Atlanta to stay in Detroit to work on automotive.

If I'm doing advertising I want it to be in a section I truly enjoy. We've hopped around a bit in Metro Detroit, but this new house is going to be long term, like unless something drastic happens (like winning the lottery or something haha) we'll be in it until kids are out of high school.
