- I just wrote this out of nowhere. Whaddya think?

Peggy has a problem. Rosemary says that it's no big deal. Pat says that she's always fussing about trivial things. A red stain on a white couch is not trivial to Peggy. No, not at all. Especially when no matter how many times she sprays it, and scrubs it, and washes it, that ugly stain just keeps coming back. Sure, she could turn the cushion over, but there's a stain on that side too.

Why doesn't she just buy a new couch? What's stopping her? Mary keeps asking, but Peggy gets angry and changes the subject. How rude of her! Peggy won't have guests anymore over because she's always trying to get rid of that stain. Out, damned spot! She won't stop until it's gone! If only her husband were here to snap her out of it. But alas, it's just her and the red stain on the white couch.

You see, Peggy has a problem... and it's not going away any time soon.
