The setup: Ghostbusters by Ray Parker
So, who knows why this occurred to me as a blog topic!
I wanted to lighten things up a bit, and I’ve been thinking about all the great things MIL-Spouses do out there (in our community). If I heard it once, I heard it a 1,000 times: “Call so-and-so, they’ll do it.” or “They’ll understand.” That so-and-so is 99.9% of the time a MIL-Spouse. Of course it is, in my world. That’s who I’m surrounded by.
Sometimes you don’t feel it, but that’s who you’re surrounded by too.
Yet, even with our collective ambition, can-do attitude, and perservence, we all have a few ghosts we’re working on to expel.
Anxiety over meeting new friends
Murphy up to his usual antics
Lonely nights
I’m sure you have more to add to the list. Those are my personal ghosts.
And when I want inspiration or a new coping strategy, I call MIL-Spouses.
So, you got that tune in your head? Good. (You can be mad at me later.)
I want you to remember this song and the fact that you’re NOT ALONE.
Keep it as your anthem and pep-rally song for all the others (MIL-Spouses) who
just made their first PCS move or are going to soon (just like you).
MIL-Spouses who have to navigate your same healthcare or dental insurance transitions.
Others who are on their third deployment (and are so-over-it) or through their third and survived it
(like you will).
…who have to learn more about and enroll in EFMP,
who get to throw a promotion party but don’t know how,
For all of them and all of those reasons, this song is for you:
MIL-SPOUSES
If there’s something bad
that Murphy’s done.
Who ya gonna call?
MIL-SPOUSES
If there’s something wrong
and it don’t seem right
Who ya gonna call?
MIL-SPOUSES
I ain’t afraid of no ghosts
You ain’t afraid of no ghosts
If you’re worr-y-ing
’bout things “foreseen”
Who can ya call?
MIL-SPOUSES
Inconsolable kids
sleeping in your bed
Who ya gonna call?
MIL-SPOUSES
I ain’t afraid of no ghosts
You ain’t afraid of no ghosts
Who ya gonna call?
MIL-SPOUSES
If ya feel alone
pick up the phone
and call
MIL-SPOUSES
We ain’t afraid of no ghosts
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Who ya gonna call?
MIL-SPOUSES
If you’ve had all you can take
with regs and tape
Ya better call
MIL-SPOUSES
Lemme tell ya something
It’ll make you feel good!
I ain’t afraid of no ghosts
You ain’t afraid of no ghosts
Don’t get caught alone no no
MIL-SPOUSES
When it comes through your door
Unless you just want some more
I think you better call
MIL-SPOUSES
We think you better call
MIL-SPOUSES
Who ya gonna call?
MIL-SPOUSES
I can’t hear you
Who ya gonna call?
MIL-SPOUSES
Louder
MIL-SPOUSES
Who ya gonna call?
MIL-SPOUSES
If one won’t respond, or they don’t know the answer, there are 1,000,000+ more.
Call, text, facebook, get out and meet, mentor, and connect with other MIL-Spouses!
