    Day 20
    â€œJesus, I thought you’d never finish.”
    â€œMe too,” I groan.
    â€œJust two more days, baby.”
    Day 21
    We go to the sex shop and get inspired. She ties me up nice and tight. It’s glorious.
    Day 22
    After work tonight, there’s a farewell at the bar for Marc, a database guy who’s heading off to PEI to work in another division. I tag along. Marc’s a nice guy and I could use a beer. When I get home I’m a little drunk. Sarah’s mood smells like it’s in poor health.
    â€œWe have to have sex you know.”
    â€œYeah, so?”
    â€œWhen you drink you never cum, you take forever. God, you stink, how many pints did you have?”
    â€œFour,” I answer, telling her the truth.
    â€œI want you to fuck me.”
    â€œOkay, let’s go.”
    Marvin surprisingly springs into action. Things are going smoothly, but then after grinding away for ten minutes, I worry that I won’t finish. I try to think sexy thoughts, Mrs. Dunbar’s sweater, the nude witch on the broomstick… I involuntary flash to my grandmother’s tits – yuck!
    â€œCan you hurry up, please?”
    â€œRelax, I’m trying.”
    â€œIf you didn’t drink so much, it wouldn’t be a problem.”
    Marvin sags a little. I think about the glossy pages of Swank . I’m trying to focus on the girl-on-girl action when I become aware of Sarah’s finger penetrating my asshole, stimulating the prostrate. Marvin can’t take more than a few seconds of this before he erupts.
    â€œThank you,” says Sarah, “try not to drink when we’re supposed to be fucking.” She spins around and puts her feet on the wall.
    We go back to see Dr. King. It turns out that Sarah hadn’t even ovulated. He ups her dose of Clomid and says that we will have to try again. “Remember, Days 11 to 22, lots and lots of sex.”

    Colin:
    I understand your frustration with the photocopier; however change is never easy. Our world is changing at a rapid and sometimes frightening pace. The threat of global warming isupon us. That is why by 2012, we hope to reach the goal of “Paperless Office.” Imagine Colin, a paperless office. No more filing cabinets, no more losing things, no more clutter. The trees would no longer be afraid. By 2012, the Ministry of Revenue Collection will be leading the world with our sustainable development. Our vision, our solution to the global-warming problem: Paperless Office. This is why Barry and the rest of the management team have taken the first and crucial step in trying to reduce the amount of photocopying on the floor. In the near future there are plans to eliminate all but one printer, and eventually eliminate it completely.
    Your suggestion for online forms to replace 811s, 822s, etc. is a good one. I will be bringing up this suggestion with Barry and the management team at our next weekly meeting. Your suggestion shows thinking “outside the box” and I have made note of this for your next performance review. Good job Colin!
    There will be more information coming out about “Paperless Office 2012.” Remember, change is difficult, but it’s easier if you think about it as not staying the same .
    Thanks, Bruce
    PS I left you a “Paperless Office 2012” pamphlet in your in-basket.

    Part of me is laughing, and part of me is seething. Sure enough, I look over and there’s the piece of paper Bruce left me about a paperless office. I grab it, without even so much as a glance, and throw it into my recycling bin. It appears that Carla is actually moving away from the paperless office. Usually she has nothing on her desk except for her hand sanitizer and occasionally an 810 or 811 and a pen. However, I’ve noticed in the past few weeks
