Miss Thelma
As Miss Thelma opened the door she experienced that familiar sensation, the same mouthwatering, jaw-tingling sensation she always felt when she was about to bite into a rare Ribeye.
Miss Thelma surveyed the room. Sitting over at Betty's station getting her gawd-awful mustache waxed was Harriet Watson. To Harriet's left at Winnie's station Joyce McIntyre was admiring the rear view of her Medusa locks. Why that woman didn't get a respectable haircut, Thelma never understood.
"Good morning ladies," Miss Thelma said. "Joyce, your hair is lovely. Very becoming."
Satisfied with her charity to Joyce, Miss Thelma clucked a little compliment to Harriet then took her seat at the manicure table. "Puritan Pink today, Sadie."
"Miss Thelma we were just discussing the mayor's race," Betty said. "Do you think Dan Sherwood will be able to pull it off again?"
As president of Ladies For A Better Society there was very little Miss Thelma didn't know about that went on in town.
"Not if he doesn't keep that wife of his out of bars" Miss Thelma responded.
"Miss Thelma!" Winnie exclaimed.
"The woman is a lush," Miss Thelma continued. "And I hear she's playing a little rough 'n' tumble with that new football coach at the high school."
"Do tell," Harriet and Joyce said simultaneously.
Miss Thelma smiled, pleased with the reaction.
"I suppose you can't blame her, being that the mayor is impotent," she said smugly.
Miss Thelma knew her friends at the beauty shop were unaware of the mayor's impotency, for she'd only received this tantalizing piece of news this morning at her Ladies For A Better Society meeting.
"Dinah Ledbetter's neighbor's maid is friendly with another cleaning lady who found an empty bottle of Viagra while cleaning the mayor's office Monday morning," Miss Thelma said.
Miss Thelma looked at her nails, admiring her manicure. "Simply lovely, Sadie, simply lovely."
"Well, my dear friends if I don't leave now I will be late for Bible study," Miss Thelma said as she closed the door behind her.
