Words

I've heard some words lately that I've not heard in a while. I just like the sound of them.

skedaddle

pip-squeak

besieged

So when G asked if I wanted to play Scrabble last night, I jumped at the chance. G retrieved the Scrabble board (which is probably as old as I am) and we chose our tiles. I started out by playing the word WHORT and G rolled his eyes. He challenged me right away, but WHORT was in the dictionary (the whortleberry or its fruit).

He & I were neck and neck for most of the game until he used the Q he'd been saving. Grrrr

And with a triple word score. I gave it my best but I just couldn't catch up by then. He was victorious.

Rematch, rematch!
