LOL :P Right back atcha!

Seriously: Of course I understand what you're saying. However, you do lots of great things. I'm sure the horses really love you! Here's a nice, hearty "neigh whinny"for you!

I'm sorry you don't like the music during those events; I just drown it out, really. When I used to run, I could care less about the outside atmosphere, anyway. I ran according to my own metronome (the sounds of my stride and my breath interlaced with each other).

:D
The horses are awesome. They are really magnificent and they have the best personalities.

Yeah, the music can be hard for me. Part of it is that I have Misophonia and the boom boom of bass is one of my trigger sounds. Also if there is music like rap or hip hop or even some Bach pieces, sorry JSBachLover, the music is too fast paced for me and it I find that I can't breathe and my heart races. If I don't get away from it or keep my ears tightly shut by sticking my fingers in my ears I get really messed up. I even blacked out once at the wheel while I was stopped at a red light because someone behind me was playing bass on his stereo so loudly and I could not get away from it. I get nauseous from it too. I told someone that story once and his response was, "Maybe you shouldn't be allowed to drive." ??????! !! ! Really? Seriously? How about maybe people should not be allowed to play their music so loudly that they make other people pass out. Oh right, and it is against the law too. I know because I have called more than once and complained about the noise in our area. It is totally against the law but no one seems to be able to enforce it. But some of the music at these events is way too much for me to endure. A Misophonic cannot block out a trigger sound, it is nearly impossible. And what these fast paced musics do to me is not something that I can block out either. My body reacts involuntarily and the only way to fix it is to not be there or seal my ears shut until it is over. I have even held up traffic with my fingers in my ears until the obnoxiously loud driver drives by. But I can't care about holding up traffic and if they give me a ticket for that I will contest it every time.
