I was just about to get into bed last night, after recording the Stacker Sports Pod and hiding Easter Eggs, when I remembered to check my step count. As often happens, I was stupidly short of my goal: just 7 steps this time.
My step counter is not nearly so precise as to actually record seven steps, so I knew it was either go to bed or do some chores for a bit to get enough more steps to register.
Well, I got the steps easily enough, only to discover the dog had an accident on the carpet that I now needed to clean up...and it turned out we had run out of the cleaning supplies we use for such incidents. So, I had to do some basic chemistry at midnight to mix up a makeshift cleaning solution to keep the carpet from staining and wait long enough for it to do its magic before drying it out.
Had I just taken the L on the steps, the dog would have just fallen asleep and peed in the morning. I doubt the Workit payout will prove to be worth the hassle this time
