The post where I sound like an old fart

I am never going to sleep tonight.  Boom/pop/bang/whistle/repeat repeat repeat. Oh em gee.  My neighbors spent thousands on fireworks (no, really) and they're hellbent on shooting them all off tonight.  Anyone have a tranquilizer gun I can borrow?  I'll need at least 10 darts.  By the looks of their supplies and lawn chair stance, I'll be up until well after midnight.  If only I could have a drink!

  • Ugh. I'm all for firework fun but not on a weeknight--don't they know some people need their sleep/have to work?? I'm surprised I haven't heard any fireworks here tonight...we'll see how the rest of the week goes.

  • We heard some fireworks last night. I had just put M to bed and I was afraid they were going to make her come out of her room. I'm fine with fireworks but I think people need to be respectful of their neighbors and stop popping them around 9.

  • I thought the same thing about my neighbors... do they really have this much money to blow on fireworks? Because seriously it seems like 5-10 people on each block are setting them off every night. 

    Poor Cooper last night, he got up to use the bathroom and I heard him sniffling like he was trying not to cry. I went in the bathroom and he was standing there and said "I don't like those noises (fireworks)." And then started crying. Broke my heart :( I opened his curtains and told him to watch the fireworks and he felt better.

    I like to enjoy others' fireworks but only when **I'm** ready to watch, lol.  

  • There weren't any in my neighborhood this weekend that I heard, but no doubt tomorrow and Wednesday evening there will be tons. I'm tempted to take a jog around the neighborhood one of those nights so I can look at them, and since I'll be out of my house I won't be annoyed with the noises. :)
