D04 Colle System (1.d4 d5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.e3 Bg4 4.c4 e6 5.Qb3)

I am still feeling a bit feverish so it was lucky that I got something to post about on the first game I looked at. I am also getting a bit into time trouble of sorts in my correspondence games due to this because I just do not have enough energy to move in any games that I am not losing on time. I guess it is also me trying not to make too stupid moves. I have done those this year enough to last me a lifetime, I will make really bad moves in the future as well albeit I may not get away from those unless I somehow figure out how to properly play chess.
