Abu Dhabi Cold

I can't believe there is only one full week of August left. It seems like the month just started and we're already three weeks in. I guess time flies when you're watching the Olympics. Other than taking in the Olympics, I've enjoyed several Chiefs games and the conclusion to a couple softball seasons.

I wish I had more to share, but my head is a quite fuzzy with the medicine I'be been taking to rid myself of this Abu Dhabi cold I caught. Why is it the Abu Dhabi cold, other than the fact that it's fun to say?

Well, Nicole, my new office mate, had a cold last week when we were asked to move our desks into the same room. I figured I could avoid her illness, but little did I know she had an Abu Dhabi cold. My Peoria, IL immune system was not ready for that one!

So, the week prior, Nicole had a visit from her sister-in-law who has been living in... you guessed it, Abu Dhabi! And yes, she had a cold. Nicole caught it and then promptly gave it to me. This Abu Dhabi cold is seriously kicking my ass!
