Everyone knows the life of an Army spouse call be full of loneliness and even despair. From the moment you say I Do, you get a dose of reality. There's a saying in the military, "If the Army wanted you to have a wife, they'd issue you one".
That is the honest to goodness truth. I've always envisioned, a platoon of new recruits, standing in line for their uniforms, boots, and wives. With the past decade, came new wars. We've seen multiple deployments and causalties, both on the war front and the home front. So I started thinking....
All wars and battles fought by our men/women in uniform, get their own hi-speed name.
Well as an Army wife, I'm tired of being left out!
I'm having trouble deciding between:
Operation: Celibacy, Enduring Operation Celibacy and The Celibacy for Freedom Campaign.
Being an Army wife should come with certain benefits, it definitely comes with battle scars. Personally I think we should qualify for PTSD treatment.
PTSD: Pretty Tired of Sex Deprivement, perhaps?
Now, don't get me wrong. I do NOT advocate the adulterous behavior that could cure such a condition. I'm just saying, if the Army were to provide us with a cabana boy our divorce rates may be a little lower.
As what I believe to be a cruel joke, they do provide us with Gardners. Typically, non English speaking, hygenically challenged, "Oh Lord, please don't come back and kill me in my sleep" gardners. I truly believe this is done for a purpose.
You will never see a Desperate Housewife's gardner on an Army post. Why?.. because we would no longer be desperate.
So until our husbands return, we should wear Troop TShirts proclaiming....
REMAINING CELIBATE FOR YOUR FREEDOM
