Stairway to heaven?

I think not Batman. These are the stairs from hell.
Why you ask. Oh please let me explain.
My lunch hour has always been a special time for me to walk. I can get lots of steps on my stupid fitbit. Until this week.
4 days of torrential rain. I can't walk outside. So,
I started with the stairs. Flights of stairs.
Those bastards suck.
I went up 4 flights and down 4 flights and up four flights and down four freakin' rotten flights.
Went back up.
And
Decided I hated my life.
I then,
Walked down the hall trying to smile and pretend that it was an ordinary day.
Walked down five flights of stairs to the basement, walked through X-ray, and down the tunnel back and forth about 6 times. Then back up more stairs around the loop and back to my desk where my limbs shook. Seriously shook. My body is not liking this.
You see I have a fitbit ..ummmm.........for lack of a better word.... bossy ....boss.
My fitbit boss feels that I need to walk 15 to 20k steps a day. I can't. I don't have the time. You want to know how many steps these stupid stairs gave me? Less than 2k
You know what's worse? Three hours standing up and dancing and singing my butt off......... 1750 steps.
Here is what I think.
I think that if I walk 10k steps a day including a million and a half stairs, go home, do laundry make dinner, clean the house and THEN stand for 3 hours and perform to a room full of people.......... I am not worrying about stamina. I am worrying about pinching the person who states I need to do more.
WOW
I feel so much better!
These stairs were built in the 1920s. They are slate I think. I love how they are worn from years of people. I will blip them again sometime.

On a lighter note,
I just ate a small pumpkin whoopie pie. Yup, I licked the plastic wrap. It had cream cheese frosting.
It did not suck.

Now it's time to watch TV. Work is early. I bet I fall asleep by 9:00.
It still morning Down Under so, G'day to you and.....goodnight to my friends. In the north!
