Sort:  

And before murals, I painted theater sets for 14 years and often had to work while somebody else was hammering away at something or generally making a racket of one sort or another. So I learned to tune out surrounding noise. Now if people are giving you advice, it can be irritating. But I always figure it shows they have interest - better than indifference!

Damn.. No wonder you are habituated by all of this. Thanks for your advice though <3
