Cafe-ku. I love it. Cafes have been and continue to be such an important part of my everyday being. And I love this because although I do enjoy coffee it’s the people that make cafe life interesting. And I really like “over expressing”! Conjures up a lot of images, arguing, making out, I can only imagine….
I don’t THINK I was overexpressing, but it’s just a funny thought that my blind date could have been fodder for poetry! (It wasn’t an independent coffee shop on Snelling, was it? :O )
Ha! That’s funny, Kristen. No, it wasn’t a coffee shop off of Grand Ave. I was in Minneapolis–downtown.
And Alison…as per “over expressing” I almost wrote it as over-espressing. As in espresso. Over espressoed over expressing. But then I thought the play on words might be a little to obscure. ; )
[...] I just love the company cafe life allows me to keep … busy professionals, teenagers texting, blind daters over expressing, moms chasing toddlers along with writers tapping away on their iMacs. Cafe life is vibrant and [...]
Good one! I really relate to this. I was just in the same situation at a cafe and overheard an argument!

Since I was at a cafe yesterday- on a blind date- in Minnesota-(but not arguing)- I wonder if I was overexpressing?!
