179.5 again today. Yesterday was an S Day (my birthday), but I didn't go crazy. I tried the snacks at Fabrica Central, a restaurant that hosted a meeting I attended for work. I would like to go there some night for dinner. I also had one slice of cake. I did stay up too late though with friends, so ...

Why the sweater?
Okay, I don't know why this is a sticking point for me, but why the sweater? Is the theory that 8 pounds swung at you would not hurt if covered with a sweater? What am I missing? I now have a sledgehammer, so I might be starting this workout. Worst case, I am ready for future demolition/home repairs.
