The Times People Are Not Awesome

I enjoy writing about all the interesting people that I meet in Coco's.  Not everyone wants to share their story.  Yesterday I had a young man come in that had a two hour wait for the train.  He bought coffee.  He mentioned there is nothing downtown to do while he waits for the train.  I agreed.  Wish there was something but there really is nothing!  I try to start a conversation.  Where you from, what do you do.  He answered the questions, grew up in New York, lives in Seattle, parents live in Bloomington, he was just in a nearby town visiting a friend.  Conversation stops.  Done.
We are looking at a long period of silence.  I have a book to read.  My time will be filled.  I poured some coffee and started reading.  No conversation was exchange for well over an hour.  He is sighing.  Looking at his phone.  I want to say, if you were a reader, you would have something to do.  We would also have something to talk about.  Instead, he is bored.  He gets up, buys some candy, thanks me for letting him wait for the train.  Mentions the train is on-time.  Heads over to the depot.  Which is not really a depot.  Just a place that used to be a depot and is now a museum that is never open.  I think the poor guy waited outside about 45 more minutes before the train showed up. 
So, Arizona, just goes to show you, interesting people with amazing stories do not always walk in the door to Coco's.  Makes for a more interesting day and blog entry when the people with great stories come in!!
