#1. If you work graves, fireworks in your neighborhood during the middle of your sleep period sound like gunshots. If you are the type who owns weapons for home defense, this triggers a reaction that is not pleasant. Luckily, I realized what it was before I had even reached the key to the cable lock for my shotgun.
#2. Some kinds of fireworks sound remarkably like rain on my roof if the distance is just right. Unfortunately, I did NOT realize this until I was fully dressed and jogging outside to put the convertible top up on my car halfway through my sleep period. Damn neighbors!
The first point happened about four times last night, but only the first time did I mistake it for gunfire. The second point happened only twice. Can't wait for the 24th!
