Try writing a poem, keep it short, perhaps a haiku.
Take multiple trips to the bathroom, splashing cool water on your face from the sink.
kick off your shoes under your desk, and take a one minute vacation by closing your eyes and imagining time at the beach. listen to the seagulls, the kids laughing, the waves thirstily lapping the shore. Feel the warm sunlight.
Keep hydrated, get a salad for lunch if you can, something cool and refreshing.

Read this article. It should make you laugh (unless you are a lawyer):
A Charlotte, NC, lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive cigars, then insured them against fire among other things. Within a month of having smoked his entire stockpile of these great cigars and without yet having made even his first premium payment on the policy, the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company. In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost "in a series of small fires." The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason: that the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion. The lawyer sued ...and won!
In delivering the ruling, the judge agreed with the insurance company that the claim was frivolous. The Judge stated, nevertheless, that the lawyer held a policy from the company in which it had warranted that the cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that it would insure them against fire, without defining what is considered to be unacceptable fire, and was obligated to pay the claim. Rather than endure lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and paid $15,000 to the lawyer for his loss of the rare cigars lost in the "fires."
NOW THE BEST PART:
After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of ARSON! With his insurance claim and testimony from the previous case being used against him, the lawyer was convicted of intentionally burning his insured property and was sentenced to 24 months in jail and a $24,000 fine.

Do something you like, what do you have to do?
if you have nothing there is a way to sneak out
but try this 2morrow
Bring an extra pair of keys, a back bag or totebag with some books, and a sandwhich
leave the keys and totebag on your desk where it is visible
the eat part of your sandwhich
once you have eaten a few good sized bites from it, leave right away taking your real keys (not the extra) and your real totebag with you
This only works if you work in one of those cubical offices
