Todd: Okay. Hey Marion, how are you feeling today?

Marion: I'm really tired. Kind of, I don't know, my throat's really scratchy so maybe I'm coming down with something.

Todd: Oh, no. That's terrible! Are you taking anything for it?

Marion: Actually, I am. I had a private student last night, and she told me some wild formula to do. And she asked me to take Coca-cola, boil it, add some ginger and then drink it. However, I'm caffeine-sensitive, so it kept me up pretty much all night, so I'm really tired today.

Todd: How did it taste?

Marion: It wasn't bad. If it was probably mid-afternoon, I would love it but 11:30 at night, it kept me up.

Todd: Oh,‏ no.

Marion: Yeah.

Todd: Are you going to try it again but maybe in the morning?

Marion: No, I think I'm just going to stick with the regular cold syrup and just take that.

Todd: Yeah, that stuff tastes terrible.

Marion: It does but with plenty of water afterwards, it's all right.

Todd: Thanks. I hope you feel better, Marion.

Marion: All right, thanks.]]>
