Dating in SD is trash?

13 Upvotes

Hello,

I'm newly single in San Diego. I've never really been much of a dater so this is all new to me. My last relationship was longterm and we met in school, so I didn't really have to go out to get people.

I'm 36, Latina, 5'3"

I tried online dating, but it was definitely the worse experience of my life. I think that I need therapy after a few months of trying it out.

My friend suggested volunteering. Has anyone tried meeting someone while volunteering? I also thought about joining a dancing class. I saw that Tango del Rey has dance classes before the club opens to the public.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Transport to parks from Temecula for out-of-country visitors

2 Upvotes

We live in Portland, Oregon. My sibling and her family are visiting from India for a family wedding at Temecula, CA. They are staying with their family for approximately three weeks, around mid-June. They want to visit attractions around SoCal, including Legoland, SeaWorld, and other city attractions. They are a group of eight, comprising four adults and four children, ranging in age from 5 to 20 years. Questions

  1. Transportation - I see limited public transport. Additionally, UberXL accommodates a maximum of six passengers, so we would require two rides, which is expensive. Wild thought - Are there shuttle services to visit parks? Is there a local taxi service that could offer such a ride? If nothing works out, they are considering a single large car. With ~60 miles per trip, it may be tiring for someone out of the country.

  2. Discount prices for parks - I am familiar with CityPass. Any other discount options? I remember visiting Disney World (Florida) in 2011, where the Florida Hospital gift shop offered discounted tickets to Disney World. Not sure if they still do. Any such hacks around San Diego?

Thanks

Trying to book Safaris and tours at the Park and Zoo so far sold out

3 Upvotes

Don't know if this where to ask but I've been checking both the Safari and Zoo sites trying to book a Safari or zoo tour this November. Am I fooling myself thinking later maybe one will become available or do they stay sold out even this far out?

Does anyone know the ballpark price per lb rate for scrap laptops in San Diego?

3 Upvotes

I’m in the middle of doing a deal with a computer recycling center to buy a lot of their scrap laptops and I was wondering if anyone knew about local scrap laptop prices.

I ask here because prices are different regionally and might even be different within the region. I don’t want to offer something that will get the door slammed in my face, but I also don’t want to massively overpay since this business is just getting off the ground. I would likely be making a profit even if I slightly overpay, I do want to offer a good incentive to work with me, but I don’t want to be dead on arrival if the first few hauls are a complete bust.
