Interesting Traveler...

So not much activity in the last few days. Mostly the usual college students and local transients coming through to buy their drinks and ice cream and such. But today a very special and sufficiently awkward conversation happened between me and a fellow who would not shut up about the train ride from LA to Eugene. Maybe conversation is giving it too much justice. He talked; I nodded. Because what he talked about I had almost no interest in. He began with his approval of the sleeping cars in the train from Eugene to LA, which transitioned into expensive living in LA, which transitioned into Eugene restaurants, which transitioned into lamb chops, which transitioned into family. After about 15 minutes, when a customer finally came in to interrupt the "conversation", he left. The woman that followed him, who walked inside mid-argument with her son, offered some humorous insight. I told her that the guy before just talked my ear off. She replied, "It's cause he's gay, and he likes you." Laughter all around. Enjoy the nice weather and as always, have a nice day.
