I got off work "early" today -- left at 5:30 PM, having been there at 6:00 AM -- and decided that I had enough energy to do my laundry tonight. While the first load was washing, I spend 30-40 minutes on the treadmill and exercise bike. I then changed over the laundry and decided that I'd earned some time in the hot tub. After ten minutes or so relaxing and soaking, I got up, reached for my room key in might right pocket, and realized that I'd left my pedometer on when I got in the hot tub.
Oops. Soaking in hot water is good for people, but not pedometers. Needless to say, it's probably dead, but I did take it back to the room, remove the battery, dry it out as much as I could, and left it setting out to dry, just in case it might decide to come back to life. I've been needing a new one for a while anyway ever since I broke the original bracket that held it to my belt.
