Daily Life - I Don’t Feel So Good (C0115)

A: Are you okay, man? You don’t look very well.

B: Ugh, I feel terrible. I went out last night with Trevor, and things got a little out of hand.

A: Nice! So, where did you guys go?

B: We hit a couple of local bars², and met up with some friends. Everything was cool until Mike came along, and it turned out that it was his birthday yesterday!

A: Oh no! Mike’s birthday is a drinkfest for sure!

B: Tell me about it! We drank everything in the bar¹!

A: Is that why you missed work today?

A: Eww!

B: I was so dehydrated that I drank like a gallon³ of water, and my head has been pounding all day. I swear⁴, I’m never gonna drink again!
