LOL! I used to be that way....wish I still was. When I was in HS, a house on the street behind our house caught on fire, and burned to the ground. I heard the noise, reached over, lifted one of the blinds...saw the sky was orange, and people shouting....and promptly went back to sleep.

There is still a vacant lot there today, nearly 45 years later. Has grass and plants, but no house.

Can't imagine doing that today. The sirens alone would be enough to keep me up the rest of the night.
