Week 3: BAFL Stats

Another week has passed, and as is our practice here at Army 2.0, it's time to crunch some numbers.

Of note this week, I finally managed to read a book that is NOT part of Oprah's Book Club. Pretty amazing, I know. "No Country For Old Men" is of course written by Cormac McCarthy, the same author as OBC selection "The Road". As befits something written by McCarthy and filmed by the Coen Brothers, NCFOM was a thoroughly compelling read. Thanks to Lauren who very thoughtfully ordered the book for me from Amazon.

Also of note, I nearly duplicated my previous week's effort at the gym. In fact, the run number there is a misprint--I actually ran 15 miles this week.

Now, a lot of you are probably asking yourself--why all the talk of workouts and fiction reading? The Army wouldn't train you up, uproot you from your life, and send you all the way to the Forward Edge of Freedom just to read and run and get your swell on, would it?

Of course they wouldn't. But I have been very disciplined in making the best use of the small amount of leisure and free time I've had. That sliver of my day is fixing to diminish here shortly, as I assume some new responsibilities that will likely keep me busier still.

That's a good thing, though. Being busy helps make the time go by faster. Here's hoping I still have time to update the stats, at least. Defending freedom and promoting the rule of law might be important and all, but without BAFL Stats, is any of it really worthwile?

I'll let you chew on that for a bit, and I'll holler at you all soon.

BTW, more guest bloggers coming right around the corner!
