BE HAPPY, DAMNIT!

Better keep that glass half full, girls. A livescience.com study suggests that optimistic women live longer, healthier lives. Optimistic women are at a lower risk for developing heart disease, diabetes, high cholesterol and high blood pressure. The research shows that women with high levels of cynical hostility are at a greater risk of dying.

Well, we’re all going to die, anyway. Wait! I mean…

Here’s the kicker: Researchers found that optimists were more likely to live in the Western US [√], have higher education [√], higher incomes [∅heh], they are employed [∅ugh], have health insurance [∅ouch] and regularly attend religious services [gulp].

Employed? Insurance? By ‘regularly,’ what do they mean, exactly?

Oh, forget it. That’s it. I’m screwed. It’s all over. I can feel my blood pressure shooting up already.
