I kind of suck at Scrabble.

Not because I'm actually bad at it, exactly. I can think of lots of exciting words to put down, that would fit perfectly on the "double" and "triple" squares. The problem is - I keep on thinking of them even when it's not my turn.


Last night, I turned "RAZE" into "RAZED", and promptly got lots of points (because of the Z). And then went, "Oh, hey, if you had a C you could make it "CRAZED"..."
Lo and behold, the boyfriend did in fact have a C, and got even more points than I'd just got.

*facepalm*


This happened several times last night.

That's kind of a Socialist approach to Scrabble.

The first rule of Scrabble is Don't Talk About Scrabble.

Sounds like the problem isn't thinking about them, but thinking about them out loud. =)
