Gardening Olympics 

The sporting events gardeners participate in at the first sight of sunrise, tormenting local residents with their obnoxious, gas powered tools. These sporting events usually take place in apartment complexes, a couple days a week, beginning early in the morning and last the majority of the day.
The Gardening Olympics started at 6am this morning and went on well into the afternoon. Needless to say, I was unable to sleep in and now have a headache. I think today's events were rock mowing, sidewalk raking, and the power decibel endurance leaf blow. FML.
