Ms. Pigg

Ms. Pigg has not changed her clothes once in the past couple of weeks so she decides it is time to wash them. She does not have a washing machine in her apartment because she can not afford one. So Ms. Pigg goes across the street in the laundry mat. She walks in, puts her clothes in the washer, and watches her clothes spin in circle. Ms. Pigg gets bored immediately and it is uncomfortably humid inside the laundromat so she goes back to her room to get her Sousaphone and go for a walk.
Ms. Pigg walks through the park and just when she thought she would never see anything more out-of-place than Leeroy Jenkins, a guy in a red robe is passing by with his head down. He is in very bad shape, and he also smells really bad. So M.s Pigg makes the suggestion to wash the red robe he is wearing because it has more stains on it than a baby's bib.
Ms. Pigg's fingers are starting to freeze and her back is starting to ache from carrying the Sousa on the walk in the cold, so she heads back to the laundromat to put her clothes in the dryer. On the way back Ms. Pigg makes eye contact with Leeroy and they walk together to the laundromat. Ms. Pigg gives Leeroy a hug when she's at the entrance of the laundromat as a thank you for the company and it has also been a couple of weeks since they have been together. So Ms. Pigg walks back into the humid hell hole, puts her clothes in the dryer and falls into a trance of the clothes spinning around in circle.
