Black Coffee in Bed . . .

. . . is something I would like on a Sunday morning if I had a really cute boyfriend. I'd wake up after a long night of passion, and I'd look next to me, and I'd be all, where is my really cute boyfriend?

"Here I am!" he'd declare, dashing back into the bedroom with a coffee cup twittering on a saucer and a copy of the Sunday New York Post. "I just wanted to bring you black coffee in bed, because I adore you so much and you are so beautiful and I am the luckiest man alive!"

Even though I prefer Equal in my coffee, I'd be completely okay and thrilled that I have a partner who aimed to please. Plus, I love Squeeze.

Alas, there IS no really cute boyfriend. There's not even a really ugly one. And 30 is just 1 month and 8 days away, so we got to go on match.com soon. Eek!

While I may not drink black coffee in bed, I do get it for free at work--we have a Starbucks machine in our office. Today was even more special as an outside vendor brought special gourmet coffee in for us to taste. I drank an iced coffee flavored with a shot of hazelnut. Delish!

Now I've got to go to bed. Your girl Liz is going to the Hamptons this weekend. Maybe she'll drink some black coffee in bed with a stranger! NOT! Hehe, hehe! Happy 4th!!!
