New York Minute 20 - Cigarette Break

Two young women stood in front of a restaurant smoking. You can't smoke in New York restaurants, so the patrons go out to the sidewalk when they want to enjoy a cigarette.

 One of the women was facing the street. The other was facing the same direction that I was as I walked up the street. Her back was to me, so she didn't see me approaching.

 Just as I was passing them, the woman whose back had been turned toward me said very loudly: "But I finally got my PERIOD, so THAT'S a relief!"

 "Yeah..." the other woman muttered sheepishly.

 I just kept walking.
