Writing Sex Scenes at Work

So I have a day job. A good one, not in the financial sense, but one I enjoy. Mostly due to the amount of freedom and a hell of a great boss, who I love as a friend too. The work is all right. My students are great.

The thing is, I have a scene to write today, while at work (during lunch) and it's a steamy one. A sex scene with plenty of bodily fluids and tongue action. My first one in this new book. I want my characters to enjoy themselves, but I'm blushing with each sentence written.

Have you ever read a sex scene, or written one in an uncomfortable place? How'd you manage it?
