Last week I did lose it....laughing guy had this library of noise on - and then the constantly talking guy's intern turned the tv volume up to hear a sports story - I was on deadline and could not work with all the noise - so the intern starts talking with someone else and I muted the tv - she was like, "Deanna, did you mute the tv?" I said, "Yes, you were talking, not watching the SPORTS story - and I'm trying to write a newscast..." then I asked laughing guy to use headphones - and no - he just turned down the volume - better than nothing I guess

Even at home I'm a tyrannt though - I NEED quiet and get really edgy and bitchy when I don't get it

I hear that! I can't function when I have more than one mode of input at one time. The only time I get things done is when I'm somewhere totally silent -- when my mom's not home or late at night. But even during a test you expect people to be quiet, right? My English professor handed us something to do today and said "okay get started on it" and THEN read the directions. And commented on how to write it and what to look for and... It's just so annoying to have somebody break into your thoughts like that, it's like having somebody switch radio stations on you.
