Funny, I was reading your story and I was trying trying to figure out who "hubs" was. I thought maybe it was a nickname for someone named Hub Cap or something. LOL!! I read some more and finally deducted it was your husband.
I haven't heard that term before but then, I lead a very sheltered life.
Actually, he prefers hubster to spousal unit. Often, I call him Rockstar or Smudge. He calls me Smooch.
You should get out more. ;o)
