Be thankful you don't live in another country. I live in Japan and I haven't had an eight hour sleep since...shit maybe a handful of times in 4 years.
They have no Daylight Savings Time so the sun is up at friggin' 4:30 in the morning and the bloody chickens start crowing....yes, chickens. People are up doing their laundry, gardening, tree trimming at about 6am. Fuckin' assholes. I sleep with earplugs but it doesn't help that the walls of my building are about 2-3 inches thick.
If they weren't paying me so much with 8 weeks vacation, I would have been home 3 and a half years ago.
