One reason to have a man around the house.

Yes, I do have the teens here, but sometimes there are jobs, tasks, chores, that a man should do.
Like tonight I heard some noises in the side yard, so I flipped the switches for the outdoor lighting to come on so I could see if anyone was out there, and nothing.
These are two large spotlight bulbs, and they are blown out.
Both, at the same time.
How does that happen?

I have the bulbs to replace them, but the light fixtures are at roof level, this would require a ladder to change them out.
I do have a ladder, but do I really want Mark up there changing out these huge bulbs?
Mark is a lefty, and occasionally gets confused with the whole left loosey, right tighty thing, and has dropped a bulb or two in changing out kitchen bulbs before.
That kinda glass is near impossible to clean up.
Do I dare let him climb the ladder to the roof, and possibly drop one of those giant bulbs?

Sebastian would totally do it, he loves climbing stuff, but it's the side yard, home of the million and one wasp and hornet nests, and if I let him do it, he'll get stung, stop breathing, and well, we don't want that.

It's the chores like these where a man would come in handy.
But then I'd probably have to feed him or something.
Then he'd want to stay and hang out.
Hrm.
Maybe I'll just climb the ladder myself.
I really don't feel like having any more testosterone in this house for any longer than necessary.
