Aw, accidentally caught SMG on Letterman! She seems good. Her outfit's a little crazy, though. And her hair's too blonde, per me.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What do blood transfusions have to do with doping?
Am I being obtuse?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
If you have the transfusions, you up your blood volume which ups your oxygen levels, which makes you better or something.
I think.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Athletes can take out their own red blood cells, store them for later and then inject it back in--resulting in more red blood cells and more oxygen delivery to the muscles. They call it blood doping, rather than PEDs.

Don't race horses receive blood doping too?

I thought some of his transfusions were in regard to his cancer treatments.

Pretty easy. DH had a high school baseball coach who taught some of the team members to do it.

Yikes, Cash.
I had super low blood count before my surgery six year ago -- I had to have a transfusion before they sliced and diced, and I tell you what, that shit pumped me up. Of course, I was totally weak and it brought me up to more or less normal. Still, it was pretty amazing. Blood. Good shit.

Beau and I literally spent 8 hours today resolving DMV matters
I had to go into the DMV to renew my license this year, because it's been 10 years, but I made an appointment, and the whole thing took me less than 15 minutes.
Of course, I got lost on the way there and drove around for almost an extra half hour and then sat in traffic for 45 minutes on the way back.
