Pam yawned and looked over at Jim. He was concentrating on work. He had the “concentrating on work” look about his neck. She yawned again. She hated this job. She loved his neck, but man, that was not enough to make her keep this boring job. Then he leaned over to pick up the phone. She could see his long fingers extend… okay, those fingers were enough reason to keep the job. Honestly, the neck just might be enough.

She could feel someone watching her. She sighed and looked down. It was probably Karen. She looked up in a vague manner at Phyllis so she could see Karen out of the corner of her eye. Surprisingly it wasn’t Karen this time…it actually WAS Phyllis. Phyllis winked at her and turned around. Got to nip that in the bud, Pam thought, better send her an Email.

To: PLapin 

Pam erased the To: line. She had to remember that Phyllis was married now. She was now PVance. It was like remembering to put 2007 the whole month of January when you still felt it was 2006.

To:PVance   

Mrs. Vance! I tried to get Jim to do a prank but he’s busy, busy, busy. Any chance you’re in the mood to do something to keep me awake?Pam  

To:PBeesly

I was going to knit but if you have any fun ideas? I could show you a preview of my Honeymoon photos if I can figure out how to download them. Bob said he’d send one of Tech guys up during lunch to install something that will do that. With music! Phyllis 

To:PVance

That sounds super! We can have a photo show at lunch. Pass the word to all the girls. We should do girls only so we can discuss all the other guests’ hair and clothes! Meanwhile though…Pam 

To:PBeesly

Oh! What a great idea! It will be like the red carpet during the Oscars! Angela can be Joan Rivers but without the potty mouth! But until lunch, we can play a game if you like. I always used to play Girly-Girl Truth or Dare when I had slumber parties! Phyllis 

To: girls of the office (AMartin, MPalmer, PBeesly, KKapoor, KFilippelli)

I will be hosting a photo party right after lunch FOR LADIES ONLY. I just got the photos from my wedding and Bob’s installing it on my computer at lunch.  We will spend about 15 minutes discussing guests’ fashions! To get everyone in the mood for this Red Carpet critiquing, Pam and I are starting a Girly-Girl Truth or Dare right now. To see the photos you have to play!  Phyllis Vance

To:PVance

How is Girly-Girl Truth or Dare different from Truth or Dare? Pam 

To: girls of the office

I am sooooo in! I rock at party games! Who starts? Kelly

To: girls of the office

OK as long as we agree beforehand that no one has to touch Creed. Meredith

To: girls of the office

I’m not sure if you are aware of it but this is a work day and we are being officially paid by Dunder Mifflin to WORK. Angela Martin

To: girls of the office

Is this the same as regular Truth or Dare? This isn’t like Strip Poker mixed with Truth or Dare, is it? Karen

To: girls of the office

You didn’t say whether you were going play, Angela and Karen.

Girly-girl is the same as truth or dare except for two important rules:   1) You can’t tell any boy that we are playing this game or explain what we are doing especially when someone is doing a dare. It must remain a secret. If you tell, each girl gets to make you do a truth or dare of their choice (no vote).     2) We’re girls so we take a vote after each truth or dare is issued. If more than half vote against it then the truth or dare is retracted.  We don’t want anyone doing anything stupid or dangerous like boys do.  Phyllis Vance

From:PBeesley

Who starts?  

From:AMartin

I will play as long as it doesn’t interfere with my workload. 

From:KFilipelli

I guess I’m in then. 

From:PVance

I’ll start. Pam, since you came up with the Red Carpet idea: Truth or Dare? 

From:PBeesly

Dare. 

From:PVance

I dare you to walk over to Dwight’s desk and (while you are asking him how his farm is or some such small talk) pick up one of his bobble heads and kiss it. Now everyone vote. Just say yes if you think Pam should do it and no if she shouldn’t 

Final vote 5 yes, 1 no (Angela Martin of course) 

Pam stood up and stretched. Kelly, who had just entered the room carrying some “things to Fax”, gave Pam a wink. Pam smiled and headed over towards Dwight.

“Hey Dwight, I have a question about those TRS Forms?” Pam tentatively leaned against the side of his desk.

“Just a second, Pam. I am downloading….now. Done. What do you want?” Dwight looked up with complete concentration. His entire being was focused on her. She felt like a deer in the headlights.

“Yes, it’s those TRS Forms.” Pam pointed back towards her desk and let her hand drop casually next to one of the bobble heads. She made sure to maintain eye contact with Dwight.

“What about the TRS Forms?” Dwight leaned forward slightly, intent on correcting anything that might endanger Dunder Mifflin because of incompetent secretarial error.

“Well, Corporate said they wanted duplicates and I’ve always sent Xerox copies but I just realized they might want two ORIGINALS of the same page. What do you think?” Pam looked down towards the bobble heads to measure the distance of the closest.

“Hmmm…that is a sensitive issue. I’ve been at loggerheads with….what are YOU DOING!?!” Dwight leapt out of his chair and snatched the bobble head back from her. He was scant seconds too late, she had kissed it!

There was smothered giggling from the rest of the Office.

From:PBeesly

Okay, Meredith, truth or dare? 

From:MPalmer

truth. 

From:PBeesly

Let’s see. Now what was that question you asked me last year…oh yes…so Meredith, "how many men have you slept with? I’m not trying to be nosy or anything"…I believe those were your exact words. 

Final vote 5 yes, I no (Angela Martin of course) 

From:MPalmer

Total?  That may take a few minutes. 

From:PBeesly

Yes - Total. Take your time 

20 minutes later.

From:MPalmer

I can confirm 63. 

A couple of the men looked up when they heard Phyllis whistle and Angela Martin say “Oh -  my - God.” in a strangled voice. Pam and Karen were trying not to laugh but once they read Kelly’s Email they couldn’t control themselves.

From:KKapoor

63 MEN!?!  63! Are you sure that isn’t a typo? 63? 63 DIFFERENT MEN? Oh my gosh! OH MY GOSH! That’s like....more guys than are in this building!! You've slept with more guys than all the guys in this BUILDING!!!! OH MY GOSH!!!   

From:PBeesly

Don’t forget, Kelly, you can’t tell ANY men about anything you hear during truth or dare. Your turn, Meredith. 

From:MPalmer

Excellent. Kelly – Truth or Dare? 

From:KKapoor

Wow! Oh NO!!!! You picked me! WHY ME? Ok. I don’t know which to pick! Wow! 63 Men!!! Ok, um dare. No, TRUTH! 

From:MPalmer

How many times have you slept with Ryan? 

 Final vote 2 yes, 4 no (question retracted) 

From:MPalmer

You guys are no fun. Kelly, have you ever considered sleeping with Michael? 

Final vote 4 yes, 2 no 

From:KKapoor

Well…like daydreaming about it? No. But once I had this nightmare where I tried to seduce him in order to get more vacation days and he was wearing a chicken costume and he couldn’t figure out how to open the chicken costume’s fly and so he wouldn’t give me the vacation days and so I kissed him but his beak kept pecking the side of my head and I was allergic to the feathers and he kept saying to call him “Big Bird” and when I woke up I was sweating and felt like throwing up. So I guess I considered it but not like in a good way. Is that okay? 

When Karen shrieked “Big Bird?” the entire office looked her way. She sheepishly grinned and said “Um…Spellcheck just changed a client’s name to Big Bird. Sorry about that.”  Phyllis nodded and said “Spellcheck does stuff like that to me all the time. I wish I could disable it.” Dwight stood up, came over to Phyllis’ terminal, and pressed a couple of buttons. “Done,” he said smugly. Phyllis rolled her eyes at Karen while Karen gave her a lopsided smile.

From:KKapoor

MY TURN, MY TURN! I've got a good one! Now who hasn’t gone. OH! Angela! Truth or Dare? TRUTH OR DARE!!
