Dhram Diet Pill Did Not Work

I took a pink diet pill. The blue ones had stopped working. And I stopped drinking all that stupid water. I do not have time to go to the bathroom hourly. Thought about it and realized I probably needed two diet pills. Shook out another pink, and downed it happily. Turned to see crackers and peanut butter. A little taste would not hurt. Made them into sandwiches. My husband had brought home my favorite coconut cake. I stomped out of the kitchen, irritated. Slunk back five minutes later and cut the cake into sixty-four pieces. They were so small, I ate thirty-two of them. Dhram diet pill did not work.

They never work; I think that most of them are pure caffeine. You've penned it exactly as it is.

Which might explain why I am running on running-ness for a third day. I will be able to crash after work on Friday.
