A leaking head gasket is a likely suspect from the symptoms you
describe.

After a few more runs, same thing.
Hot, top it off, normal - repeat!

No smoke, no apparent leak.  But hey, how come the overflow
bottle is full.  Not a problem, empty 2/3 of it.  A few runs
later, it's full again!  Ah ah.  Looks like the rad is
putting it's overflow coolant in the bottle when it's hot
but it doesn't look like it's sucking back up when it cools
down.
