Ladies Latte League Updates
It’s been a busy couple weeks for the LLL. “The Good Kim” turned 50, so of course celebrations were in order. The staff each pitched in a dollar. The local flower shop brought 50 helium black balloons which were hidden in the store room. Throughout the day people took turns bringing in a single balloon, until by the end of the school day classroom was filled.
For Christmas “Ace” gave each of the “LLL” members a new “latte look” for Fridays. Our original “Life is Good” t-shirt that “The Good Kim” gave us last fall, is short sleeved and more of a warm season attire. Here’s a picture of our winter Friday fashion attire:
More celebrating called for!! “Ace” submitted a play for this summer’s Theater Conference in Valdez and it was accepted! The rest of us rallied had one of our Friday morning “LLL” breakfasts complete with lattes, and one of “The Good Kim’s” quiches. There were sprinkle lights flashing, a new rendition of “Sand Man” to sing, we presented Ace with a Tony Award, and had the opera glasses out to practice using in preparation for the summer’s event.
One last LLL story to share. I was unable to attend a suprise 50th Birthday party for “The Good Kim” thrown at the Pipeline Club by her husband Joe. But the LLL had a theme lined up. Seems our “Good Kim” somehow got mixed up in the astronaut’s love triangle, (unbeknownced to all of us). We prepared her for the next time she needed to do battle against another rival by supplying her that evening with NASA uniform, a large container of tang, duct tape, and of course a diaper for those long drives.
So here’s the rest of the story…. To celebrate spring break, last Tuesday night the Latte Ladies met up at Ace’s for appetizers and a celebratory bottle of champagne. “The Bad Kim”, Ace, and I had no more than toasted with a glass of champagne when we noticed coming up the driveway, our very own “Good Kim” Astronaut in a BAD way!!
I wouldn’t want to mess with her either!
The remainder of the evening was especially fun because Judith gave us each parts and we read her play. It’s nice to rub shoulders with an up and coming celebrity!
Makin Memories!
