Question????

First I want to say that I love fireworks and 4th of July as much as the next person. However when do you question fun celebration vs. excessive behavior? Last night we were going to bed around 10:00 and there were a few fireworks going off in our neighborhood. I expected this, due to the 4th on a Friday I knew that there would most likely be some all weekend long. I don't think it lasted long and I was able to fall asleep. I woke up a while later to some more fireworks, we looked at the clock, it was midnight. Steve and I were trying to keep a good attitude about it, laid back down, tried to get some sleep. I kept dozing off and kept waking back up. Looked at the clock, it was 12:30. Laid there for about another 15 or so minutes before I finally feel asleep for the night. So I guess the question is, am I being unrealistic in thinking that 1:00 am is too late? There were times we let off fireworks at Scott's and after the cleanup and driving home, we were still in bed by 12. And we used to go all out, spending close to $300 every year. Am I alone in this, or is 1:00 too late?
