Beating back the lurking illness

It has been a very low productivity day. I think this is because all of my spare energy has been siphoned into beating back the cold that is trying to make me sick. I’ve kept the thing at bay like Dr. Van Helsing hanging garlic and crosses in Lucy’s bedroom to keep Count Dracula out. Unfortunately I fear that like Lucy I will eventually succumb and be walking dead. Or at least sniffling miserable. I have a much better chance of recovery than Lucy, so all is not lost. For now I will keep to my regimen of vitamin C and rest.
