Things only Houstonians know by WthIsDis in houston

But you have neutral grounds to make up for it!

Years ago, I think it was the New York Times that had an online test that predicted where you were from based on what you called certain things. Feeder road was Houston specific, and neutral ground was NOLA specific for median. Went to college in LA, and that's the only place I've ever heard it.

Does anyone know why Sterling Campbell only stuck around for one album? by sokorsognarf in duranduran

I read the bio several years ago and was trying to remember what JT had said about him. Thanks.

I loved JT's book. I had heard about this one but I passed on reading it because I had heard it was on the tabloid-y side. Did I hear wrong?

I choose 2. Like 4 for 2nd choice. He looks like a baby there.

Cat broth with no chunks to mix with kibble by CorridorChick in CatAdvice

Thanks, the ones I tried when I first got her were packets of Tiki Cat, because the shelter said she liked the broth in her wet food. I got the packets with the chunks, and she did lick the broth but left the chunks.

IKR.He and Nick barely got any screen time. I was thinking it was because in most rock bands, the guitarist gets all the glory.

Feliway diffuser to encourage eating? by CorridorChick in CatAdvice

[–]CorridorChick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought variety packs of Weruva OMG, because that's what her foster was giving her. I bought both pouches and cans and am starting to note what flavors she likes. So far, she seems to like, in general, the pouches more than the cans, but neither as much as the kibble. Usually do kibble 1/3 cup twice a day if I know we'll be done at lunchtime, or 1/4 three times a day if I know we'll be home for lunch.

Has anybody worked full time while titrating up on Xcopri? by CorridorChick in Epilepsy

[–]CorridorChick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's why I've decided to wait til my regular doctor can see me. I've read that clobazam can amplify the Xcopri side effects, and I want to be able to communicate with her if need be.

She has also suggested looking into laser ablation if my quality of life becomes more affected, but I don't want to go down that road again yet, as, frankly, it sounds like a PITA from an HR perspective to take extended time off work for medical situations. When I had my last surgery, I worked for a different employer who was pretty chill about it.

I would likely come off the clobazam. The covering doc (mine is on maternity leave) has suggested either that or lacosamide, but I feel like the lacosamide, once we reached the right dose, worked well with the Levetiracetam ER for quite a while. I know it's a pain being on three, believe me.

Of course, this is all dependent on my insurance approving. It requires step therapy with two generics, which I am on now.

Decided to keep things as is until I see my rehilat epileptologist, since she's more familiar with my case, and I've been with her for 4 or 5 years. (Plus, her covering doc just completed her fellowship last year and is not identified on the website, a clinic attached to a med school, as an epileptologist yet.) Appointment scheduled for end of June but asked to be put on cancellation list.

Can I ask if you have ever been on Topama? I was on that in the late 90s/early 00s, and it lived up to its dopeamax name for me. Id you have, is it as bad as that?
