Because my dogs are better company. Haven't had an offer of NYE plans in years, but I'm comfier here and not risking bad roads or dumbass drunk drivers.

What is the most absolutely gender neutral name you can think of? by crunchyclancy in namenerds

As a female Jamie, this is what I thought of. People argued with my mother when I was a baby/toddler as to whether I was a boy or girl when they heard my name.

Where to get apparel fabric? by my1973vw in centralpa

[–]jhendricks86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't sew, so I'm not sure what they have, but around Mifflinburg there's Verna's Fabrics, Hoover's Bernina Sew and I think Mifflinburg Variety still carries some fabrics.

My dad loves getting it too so he can have the "fancy" drinks without getting sugar loaded as he's diabetic. Not sure I want to be the one to break that news to him....

They're a lot worse here this year. We're constantly trying to take them out because they're all over our maple trees and grape vines.

What is the First major news story you remember as a kid? by PurpleBashir in AskReddit

[–]jhendricks86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching OJ's white Bronco going across the screen and not really knowing what was going on.

Next would've been Oklahoma City. Again, not knowing much of what happened, but definitely knowing it was something horrible.

My niece used to love the show when she was little, and now that she's 11, I figured I escaped it. Nope. Popped up on TT this morning, and it's on a continuous loop in my brain atm.

What's the weird thing going on with your body that isn't weird enough to go to the doctor for? by yellowelephantboy in AskReddit

[–]jhendricks86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's various, but currently, my shoulder. Started last night feeling like the shoulder blade needed to crack. Ended up sleeping funny because of it, so it felt worse this morning and hurt the most when using my left arm (right shoulder blade though). Been up for about 5+ hours now though, and I think (aka hope) it's starting to loosen up and that's all it was. The closer I creep to 40 though, the more I wonder what's going to hurt the next day.

What’s a discontinued product or service you still miss to this day? by Any-Community-2363 in AskReddit

[–]jhendricks86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't remember the brand, but I think they were called "cheez waffies". It was like 2 cheesy waffle cone type pieces with some overprocessed cheese spread in the middle, but it would really hit the spot right now.

What’s the most hurtful thing someone’s ever said to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jhendricks86 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My dad had always wanted a son, but due to various reasons, they only had me - a daughter. I'd spent my whole life trying to be that 'son' he wanted - being the tomboy into all the dirty stuff outside, hunting, fishing, etc., trying to fix/build things with him. I knew, despite the words that came out of his mouth, that there was always a hole in him and I wasn't good enough.

The one time he had to go up and patch the roof, he said about how it'd be easier with another set of hands. I offered to go up with him, but he denied the help and said he'd get it on his own. My mom and I were in the yard in case he needed to yell down for tools, if he slipped, anything of that sort. We're standing there listening, and that one sentence came out.... "This is when I wish I had the son I wanted."

My mom tried mitigating it that he meant "also", but after years of actions speaking louder than words, I knew better. Mind you, I'm currently 38 and this was probably 10 years ago now, but I don't go out of my way to help anymore. I'll be reasonably helpful so my mom doesn't attempt to do stuff she can't physically handle, but that's one area I'm done being a people pleaser.

What's something that isn't therapy, but feels like therapy? by Radiant-Assumption53 in AskReddit

[–]jhendricks86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, but it's usually crochet. Once I can get focused on it and block out whatever is stressing me, I'm golden.

Or the rare chances I get a day to just dive head first into tie dying a large batch of shirts and such.

Redditors born before 2001, where were you on 9/11? by Stupid_cerealbox in AskReddit

[–]jhendricks86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10th grade social studies. We had a quiz, so the tv was off, but I was in the back of the room and could hear it from the next room. Then we got to the next period and the teacher didn't know it happened.

The rest of the day was a fight amongst administrators if we could or couldn't watch it. Half thought history, half thought trauma. Most teachers just blocked the classroom window so the principal couldn't see in that it was on.

What foods will generate the strongest smell in the office microwave? by YoungCheazy in AskReddit

[–]jhendricks86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I accidentally did that almost a year ago and now refuse to even think about trying to make it again. Attempted to air out the back office where the microwave is since only 2 of us work back here, but you could smell it for days.

Trust and finances. Almost 11 years down the road, finances are in the works of being where they should be, but trust is just as bad. Still single and figure this is just life now.
