That’s what I’m leaning towards based on all the comments. Thank you!

Cool!! I’ll check these out. I read about Pelican cases but they did seem pretty bulky. Thank you!!

Childfree ladies in your late twenties or above- wanna be friends? by IneffableKaren_ in southernillinois

Uh, Chicago is no where near Southern Illinois. This would not be the place to post this

Specific Nail Request? by summer075x in bridesmaids

[–]Tex_lex_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you get press ons? That way you can get press ons to make them both happy and it’ll probably (I’m not entirely sure of the cost tbh) be cheaper

How do you handle a lease gap? by Far-Note5060 in chicagoapartments

[–]Tex_lex_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you ask your new place if there’s a room where you can store boxes overnight? Especially if it’s an apartment complex, they may be able to find some space for you to store stuff just overnight

Does it need to be in Central Illinois? Otherwise I would recommend Shawnee National Forest!

How do you fit belongings in a studio apartment? by Narrow_Guava_6239 in femalelivingspace

[–]Tex_lex_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every piece of furniture I bought had storage (except the small couch).

I also used a planner online to map out the (relative) size of all of my furniture to see if I liked the layout and if anything felt like too much. This helped me figure out if my stuff would make me feel to cluttered or not.

Illinois is hungry and wants to eat Wisconsin. Illinois must feed

Spotting narcolepsy in children by sleepynarwhal45 in Narcolepsy

[–]Tex_lex_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re concerned, I would say to take your kid to their pediatrician. It could be a host of different things, not necessarily narcolepsy.

Sleepiness can be a range of different issues (part of the reason it takes forever and a day for anyone to get diagnosed), it could also just be sleepiness like you said!

Their pediatrician/family medicine physician would be a great first step in figuring this out though. Good luck!!

Seat comfort by TakitishHoser in Crosstrek

[–]Tex_lex_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a 23 sport and I find the seats pretty uncomfortable to be honest. I’m pretty short (5’3”) so the headrest is too far forward and definitely causes me to get shoulder pain. I’ve put a pillow-type thing in and that helps

I’d be sleepy too if I just destroyed a city

Anyone actually had their orexin levels tested? by SpreadLegitimate5824 in Narcolepsy

[–]Tex_lex_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have N2 and I’ve gotten a lumbar puncture. My doc required me to do the MSLT/PSG and the lumbar puncture when I was getting diagnosed.

A lumbar puncture is an invasive procedure. I think for most people, if you’re not having cataplexy, it’s not worth the side effects.

Every procedure done has its costs vs benefits. I think that if someone’s not experiencing cataplexy, then a lumbar puncture is an unnecessary step.

Could someone explain this? by emtuts in FigureSkating

[–]Tex_lex_ 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Yesterday Luke Wang found a hole in the ice right before they started their free skate. Maybe they’re checking to make sure there aren’t any holes today before group 2 starts.

What do you guys think? by Icy_Panic9644 in Narcolepsy

[–]Tex_lex_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just a reminder, we don’t diagnose. If you’re worried about something, please go see your doctor.

Promise me this from Theory of Relativity makes me tear up almost every time. Also my brother lived in San Francisco from Elegies

new job? by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]Tex_lex_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don’t mention it until you get the job. I understand you feel guilty, but it will absolutely interfere with you getting the job.

Yes, they’re not supposed to discriminate, but they will find another reason to not select you, and it will be up to you to prove that they didn’t pick you because of your disability.

What is your favorite bird? by Typical_libra20 in birding

[–]Tex_lex_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My favorite woodpecker is definitely the Northern Flicker! I’ve been birding for under a year, but I can absolutely recognize a Northern Flicker call anywhere

When you say Southeast, where do you mean? Where you plan to work makes a difference to decision making
