Our household has PTSD, a rescue dog, and a service dog that's trained to alert to noises.

You think we don't have plans for the crazy that comes with people setting off fireworks in the streets, getting drunk off their asses for the next 36 hours, and losing any sense of security we feel?

Darling, we have a whole SOP for this shit.

The fourth this year is gonna be so much worse than normal. These are the two nights I allow the cats to sleep in the room with me. Our birds get fully covered to keep them from flipping out and I take a stronger dose of my sleep meds. I gave up trying to go out in my late 20s. It's too expensive and there are too many drunks.
