geoff puts a dead baby goat at the bottom of the hole, before planting his mango tree. damn.

nothing "goes to waste" with permaculture folks.

love how much mulch he puts on at the end, damn.

ordered soil by the yard. ordered 2 cubic yards and had it dumped via dump truck. it's sitting near my house. MUCH cheaper than buying soil by the bag.. lol.

FARM LIFE.

did farm stuff all day.. planted 10+ plants in the ground. it's getting nutty. just hope they all do good.

planted 3 papaya's, moringa's, bananas, mexican sunflower, and a naval orange tree. :headbang:

w/o's:

tons of dips/pullups throughout the day, a few sets of parallel squats.

body feels jacked up atm.. farm life is rough. tennis-elbow-ish thing going on in my right elbow for a few weeks now.. i think barbell curls are what really triggered it. but now the combo of farm stuff (pick axe) and w/o's seem to stress it. if it gets bad/scary ill chill w the w/o's.

w/o 2:

not really a w/o.. went on a 2 hour full-moon bike ride through the farms. was great. awesome weather + awesome scenery.

pc!

Santa Cruz vs tank davis

Great fight. Santa cruz showing his brawling abilities which were too much for Davis who had to switch from boxing to power it out.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRJCPXF9vvo" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRJCPXF9vvo</a>

Brutal ending.

wow wtf.

was hoping tank lost.. wow what an upper cut.

when u got power... fu*k.

thanks vag. i wouldn't need a lot of training -- i'm well-qualified and have lots of relevant experience -- but i'd be heading a small team, so the investment is not just in me but in the people who'd be reporting to me as well. so it's not something that i could ethically take if i felt pretty sure i'd hate it, as you say. but i don't think i'd hate it, i just think it's not that exciting. it's a great point about never knowing what's coming, and a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

- tennis x one hour
played with my brother, mostly just rallying but i beat him 6-2 in a set at the end. lower back very stiff for some reason. odd.

EDIT: accepted job just now, starting in january. feels like the right thing, i feel good about it.

awesome !!!

EDIT 2: also, just to say thanks again vag and also adarq for your input. it's still wild to me that i have entirely virtual friendships built through this site but there it is. i don't even know what vag looks like. but i definitely trust his advice and that's just cool.

you just forget what he looks like, hasn't posted vids in a long time. :ninja:

and sure np! before reading that you accepted, I was going to say i'd lean towards taking it as well. To me it sounded like some of the freedom of not working (in addition to personal projects/ideas/being patient) was keeping you away from it (i can related to that 1000%). But once you start back up, you'll probably be pretty happy. From what you told us about it, sounds like a solid opportunity.

sick man congrats!

and regarding virtual friendships, you're always welcome to come hang @ the farm (haha). you know I don't travel much (at all), so if you're ever in the area (SFL) lmk and we'll plant some trees :ibjumping: :ibrunning: :wowthatwasnutswtf: :highfive:

amazing. these agroforestry vids showing "re-greening" (desert/arid land into "lush" land) are incredible.

thanksgiving day farm fest: planted a bunch of plants/trees in the ground.

pullups/dips throughout the day.

back has been achy the last few days: I think i'm staying "too upright" on my ssbar squats. Ever since i started trying to be "even safer" (more iap/inhale/upright), i think it's stressing my back too much.



on another farm note: the bananas that grew on this property (been here since before i bought it), are epic. little cavendish bananas but so damn sweet/perfect. perhaps the best i've ever had.

need to get my ice cream banana trees into the ground soon.

about to bed in bed before 11 ! nice.

got offered a job today. ambivalent about it, had been leaning against taking it if offered but now that it's on the table i'm really tempted. have until tomorrow to let them know.

damn nice!

leaned against it but they made the offer more appealing? or just feels diff to have it on the table?

nice mang go with ur gut.

more the latter. been kind of preemptively talking myself into turning it down if offered, even thought about pulling myself out of contention a few weeks ago. but i stayed in and now that it's here... i dunno, maybe part of that talk was defensive, like prepping myself to be relieved rather than disappointed if i didn't get it. i was really confident that i'm a good fit for it (still am). gonna sleep on it.

ah nice.

for 6 months or so, i tried not getting involved w/ my current job (4+ years ago), and here i am. lol. friend begged me to help his friend, just didn't want to. finally did it to kind of get him to stop bugging me about it. now it's easily the best job/company/boss i've ever worked for. funny how it can work out. never know. :ninja:
