Boss^2 is back in the office for the first time in a few months. He looks really good, considering what happened to him.
Back to work Monday. I don't think I said how it all finished up: I won my last game and ended up 11-9, +62.
Home safe from Albany. Soon over to Chez EdHorch to rest, recuperate, and rehash.
10-9, -35. Very good and even game all the way thru. I got the better of him at the end. One more to go!
9-9, -66. Drew both blanks early and scored well, but opponent hung tough. Used the last blank for a baby bingo and won by 90.
8-9, -156. Opponent got out to a big lead. I got both blanks, but he had everything else.
I can now verify that the alarm clocks in the hotel work. I'd woken up early every morning except today.
Now this is the 4th of July. Many fireworks.
I haz adult beverage! Thank you, Shelley and huzzah!
You could not ask for a better evening for a picnic. Nice and cool, no rain.
And with a 180-point loss, I say ouch. 8-8, -95. The quest for 11-9 begins tomorrow.
8-7, +81. Wife says, "Say hi to her before you beat her." Yeah, fat lot of good that did when she drew both blanks and bingoed 3 times.
Won the first one after lunch by 50. 8-6, +161. Bingoed 3 times, twice using blanks.
7-6, +111. Split these 2 before lunch. Both were squeakers. Opponent had everything in game 13, but only lost by 37.
6-5, +135. My opponent had both blanks and bingoed 3 times. That I only lost by 80 means something.
After hours: hoping to introduce folks to Other Foot, but it seems like everyone's 100% Scrabble focused. I like the game a lot, but ...
Eight of us at Cheesecake Factory. There will be food and some alcohol.
And 4 in a row to make it 6-4, +221. Good finish to a bad morning.
That's 3 wins in a row after lunch! 5-4, + 121. Drawing like a fiend lately. *knock wood*
After she gave me the spot for my double-double, I bingoed with the other blank and won by 140. 4-4, +96, and we're back positive!
Yay, first win of the day! 3-4, -46. My drawing fu was greater than his, despite his bingo-bango.
Got some vitamin D over lunch. It was nice to sit outside and eat and talk to folks.
And thus endeth the perfect morning with 3 straight losses. 2-4, -116. Used all 4 esses in the phony bingo SASSERS*; his tiles won late.
Just lost the first 2 games by ~100 each - now I'm 2-3, -51. Opening spots for yourself often leads to your opponent using them, too.
First off, not raining. Second off - sunny? Might be the end of the world here in Albany, kids.
Very very interesting endgame. The game was winnable if I hadn't challenged BORATED. 2-1, +132.
Two wins in a row?! The world's turning upside down! 2-0, +149. Opponent went 4 minutes over-that was the difference.
@amanjo Thanks! 19 games to go - lots of Scrabble. Do you play in clubs or tournaments?
Got the first win out of the way. 1-0, +109. Two bingos for me, even though he got both blanks.
