Q: At a party last week, a woman for whom I do consulting work got drunk and asked me to go home with her and her boyfriend. I laughed it off, but now I have to go to her office for a meeting. How should I deal with the awkwardness?
A: How come at the parties CC goes to, talk revolves around the best route to beat traffic and the flakiness of the spinach puffs? Chances are your porn poseur is feeling mighty contrite at the moment. Let's give her the benefit of the doubt and assume the meeting will go off as planned, and that she'll keep a straight face when she discusses upping your rate for "special services."
