Popping Iron

I saved three lives again today.
I like to boast about things like this because I know that once, I could not do it. Sort of like the crow pose in yoga. Don't be fooled, I haven't gone all secretly physically active on you guys. This just happens to be some freak-of-nature thing I can do.
My iron was up to 42%. Was it because of the five iron supplement pills I took with my breakfast this morning? Perhaps.
I met 5:45 this morning and took it to breakfast at Perkins with me where I sat among the other regulars who know the waitresses by name and don't get menus because everybody knows they want the Tremendous Twelve at the early bird discount with a cup of coffee and extra crispy bacon. I've concluded that most of these regulars are either elderly, mob bosses, or on the school board.
Maybe all three.
