I have actually gotten better. Living 100 yards from the base that is responsible for the DOD demolitions training program has helped. However, when they demo some very large, unexploded ordinance every couple weeks and it knocks the pictures off your walls and you feel it in your chest, it will bring you to another level.In addition to how fireworks affect animals...there are lots of humans out there, like me, who have bad PTS (don't say D). Loud unexpected noises are *bad* for some of us....instant flashbacks. I know I'm not the only one here with it as well. It's torture. Gotta use earplugs or earbuds with the TV turned WAY up at midnight, xanax taken at 11PM. Fortunately there is a pretty good storm hitting tonight and that should cut down on things.
This is me with fireworks:
Nope, nice middle class neighborhood. Nothing against my Hispanic bros but they like to shoot guns in the air and shoot fire crackers and such. Just a cultural thing I guess. My town is 35% Hispanic. There are some rent houses where a bunch of people pool their $ and live. That is where the it happens mostly although my knuckle head white neighbors have almost been beaten to a pulp after shooting rockets which were coming down on my roof.You live in a bad area Jipped?
I made Shrimp Scampi.Okay...spaghetti and garlic bread.......check!
Kids are watching movies with their mother, so i'll probably just kick it on this laptop until midnight, or start watching more episodes of Longmire. Liking this show. I'm on season 2, and i think they made 7.
Been talking to my 87-year-old 2nd cousin over Messenger, lol.

Totally cultural, probably same mix in my neighborhood.Nope, nice middle class neighborhood. Nothing against my Hispanic bros but they like to shoot guns in the air and shoot fire crackers and such.

What I do like is my Mexican neighbors (Who do not shoot guns up in the air) cooked a goat last night. I stayed up to eat and drink a few beers with them.
My town is like 80+% Hispanic. Hence the gun shots from my prior message. It wasn't as bad this year though, probably because it was raining.Nope, nice middle class neighborhood.
