She'll laugh it off and then give me a list of chores to do...
One day my Dad walked past me, list in hand,
and heaved a heavy sigh as he fumbled for his car keys.
" What's wrong, Dad? " I asked.
" Oh, " he replied,
" Your mother has a list of things she wants me to do...
....and she wants every item on the list, done FIRST. "

Plural - spice.
If we changed the plural of spouse from spouses to spice I would totally give polyamory a shot. Just so I can give all my spice different nicknames based on their personalty. Cayenne is the blunt one that doesn't give a fuck about your feelings. Salt is the one always upset about something no matter how insignificant. Bay leaf is the one that still plays pokemon for the nostalgia. Cumin. . .I don't think I need to explain this one.
More relevant to the OP:
I could get behind people using spouse or significant other, or some other variation instead of husband.

lol excellent point
