What did you do on friday?

Got up after six hours sleep snuggled in my eiderdown duvet: risk of asthma and allergies from dust and mite excrement.
Had several cups of coffee: intake of habit-forming substance with risk of elevated blood pressure.
Took a shower: use of soap destroys body's natural pH and body oils, exposing the skin to bacteria.
