One week. Before that a _long_ nine months. Now I’m counting the days until I can get back to Victoria, Canada next month. Well, if I survived nine months I guess I can survive one. (Cold shower time!) ---

Hmmm…about 12 hours, give or take. Better question: how long until you HAVE sex again? Me: about 4-5 hours, I’m guessing. ---

Sheesh. Since last time: Um … let me get a calendar. Three years, six months, eleven days, and somewhere between six and ten hours. Until next time: Within five months from now. Now that I’m sufficiently depressed, it’s back to work. ---

Since october 15 2000. Not for lack of desire or partner, either. Sigh… And to think of all the fun things I could be doing to him, too. And him doing to me, and us each other… 😃 ---

I can’t help but picture in my mind Dopers who have just finished having sex and the very first thought that springs to mind is “Hey, I’d better fire up the ol’ computer so I can post a really LOW number to the sex thread!” ---

A mere two days ago (as I hinted in [this post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=55624)). 😃 Yes, I consider two days to be “mere” after only recently coming off more than five years without. Now I’m hoping that I can make some arrangements to go no more than a month without – seeing as how it’s my birthday next month, and birthday sex would be fab. Mmmmm, birthday sex… Jeyen ---
