Reminds of my favorite music video from back in the day "Paradise by the dashboard light" by Meatloaf. Check it out on Youtube!

Oh no.

I have unintentionally drawn the attention of one of the Master (Mistress?) Sages.

Please be kind, Pturner, I am but a junior member.

I will neither confirm nor deny that I waited ‘til my wedding night; a gentleman does not divulge such things about a lady.

I do offer a slight clarification…we began living together on our wedding night.

Whether future Wifey was safe at first or not, there was no doubt about the call at home a few years later.

I know, I know…by staying with the softball analogy- and the related double entendres- in using the words “the call”, I have teed up for at least one of you the perfect modern-language descriptive adjective about the type of call it was. Shame on you in advance!

ljones: I agree. Meatloaf’s “Paradise” video is one of the all time best!

We have recently moved here to TV so we are doing a lot of introductions. I have heard the term "The Wife" more than a few times and in most cases it is not intended as derogatory, but the phrase can understandably be taken that way.

I use: "This is My Wife Kathy" when introducing her or when referring to her in conversation. I suppose a few might even find that offensive, but we cannot please everyone, so I try to please as many as possible.
