good to know about the calcium in general. I just knew dairy kicked my ass.

I take my calcium at cheese time.
We went to the Reds game last night b/c a friend had won a raffle at her company to use their private box, including a big huge Beowulf mead-hall-type spread (okay, no roasted pig or other animal), and I think I ate my weight in Brie and shrimp. At a fucking baseball game. It was hilarious.
t edit Also, Tim doesn't really know a lot about baseball, so I tried to make shit up to fuck with him, like, in the 7th inning, every batter is allowed to punch the catcher in the head if the second pitch is a strike.
I don't think he believed me.

Let me just go gnaw on a skillet, what's the diff...
Ain't that the truth? *bleargh*
And apparently red wine, coffee, and tea block absorption of iron, so you have to not ingest them at the same time.
Yeah, that was the other thing my doc told me-- to take the iron/C combo, then wait 30 minutes before drinking or eating anything other than water, just to help with absorption.
So I take it first thing after I wake up. By the time I've finished getting ready, 30 minutes or so have passed and I then have my coffee.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
And calcium, of course! I was also told that taking the non-heme iron (spinach is a good source of iron!) along with heme iron also helps absorption. So, for me, meat and/or egg yolks plus vitamin C plus iron supplement for breakfast, and nothing else to eat for a while.

I realized, to my utter shame, that I've never watched Bull Durham with him in all this time. (The pitcher and catcher were confabbing on the mound, and I said, "They're talking about candlesticks." Tim just looked at me blankly. I said, "I've never made you watch Bull Durham?!?" He said, "No, and I think you've made the candlestick comment before." Well, OF COURSE I have.)

Oh, MUST be rectified!

You could have told him the definition of a pitcher's balk. He'd never believe that.

Yup, I know what we're watching tonight.
You could have told him the definition of a pitcher's balk. He'd never believe that.
He was actually dubious when I told him that foul balls were strikes but not third strikes. ("You mean the batter could hit foul balls for, like, an hour?")
He *did* know about t spit designated hitters, because he's heard my rant about it many, many, MANY times before.
