WHY MEN ARE NEVER DEPRESSED:

This was forwarded to me and I loved it so much I thought I'd update my blog with it. Read on for some fun!

Men Are Just Happier People-- What do you expect from such simple
creatures? Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans
take care of themselves Chocolate is just another snack. You can be
President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a
water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you
the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas
station restroom because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop
and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay.
Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100. People never
stare at your chest when you're talking to them. New shoes don't cut,
blister, or mangle your feet..
One mood all the time.
Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about
tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all
your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of
thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be
your friend.
Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more
than enough. You almost never have strap problems in public.. You are
unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.. Everything on your face stays its
original color. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.. You
only have to shave your face and neck.
You can play with toys all your life. One wallet and one pair of shoes --
one color for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs
look. You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of
choice concerning growing a mustache.
You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25
minutes.
No wonder men are happier.

Oh Rochelle, that's FABULOUS! There are a few things that I'd like to add to this little list too (if you don't mind). (1) Men never have to worry about finding babysitters for the kids, and whenever you go anywhere as a family, they always know that the kids will be taken care of if they are every occupied with something else because Mommy's around, (2) Men don't ever have to worry about getting stains out of clothes, scrubbing the bathroom or making every bed in the house (including their own), and (3) Men never have to worry about PMS. LOL.

Very funny and so true. They seem to manage to keep life simple. I think women have a tendency to complicate things... and much of the time... it because we want to please a man.

I just stumbled upon your blog and this post made me laugh. Aren't men so lucky? And yet, I'm glad not to be one!
