I was just thinking about how we use "DP" and that I don't really like the term "partner" because it sounds like a business arrangement. I use "DW" because Carolyn & I have a Civil Union, but I don't know if that technically makes her my "wife". Besides, it's weird to call her my wife.
Then I thought, if she is my dear civil union partner that would make her my
D cup!

hahahahahaha
Forgive me - this is how my brain works sometimes.
