Ruby and I went and measured the space where the proposed cafe will be: two rooms and a bathroom with a total of 750 sq. ft. I spent the morning working on the floor plan, and I think that it'll work fine, with just a few modifications. It will seat 25, and will include 3 or 4 computers that clients can use, as well as wireless for the laptop crowd (significant, since every NMU student is required to have a laptop).

Today, we are cleaning up our yard. I need to get groceries, and then I work 3p-11p. I posted a poem to 100poems this morning, thinking about a very cold, clear night last January:

Acute

I heard the stars sing
black night air taking
slow cold sips of my
soul, empty I lie
calm clear open free
singing silently
