I Am a Scrabble Head

The three letter words
like adz and avo delight me.
when you are a scrabble head like I am
you seek every spot to stick them in.

the skill is in connecting them.
They have to attach, which is the tricky
part. But learning all the two letter words
like jo, qi, bi, and za give it a bit of vim.

ow becomes row and then rowing 
and vote becomes voter and then voters
you can play games all night now in the dark,
for your I-pad is backlit for playing him.

this is a game I never got into. I like the games of personality . But I think this is very good brain exercise. It has to be why you are so prolific!!

I have to admit my father had alzheimers in the end, and a hahahaha suggested way to not get it if it is in your family is word games and logic problems. I have to be prolific now before the mind disintegrates.

I am a strategist, and very very sneaky. I have won number one in the most points for 135 weeks. I am shocked anyone will still "play" me as I do not understand the fun in it and go directly for throats.

I always loved playing scrabble when we were young. Its just too bad that when we become adults we stop playing, Wish you lived close by, we'd have a game or two , I'm full of brainy words lol, have a good day dear Caren. xo

Pixie Dust, I play Word Chums which is scrabble and Words with Friends, which is Scrabble. You can upload both on your I-pad, I-phone, and computer. And they are FREE!!!!!!!!!! I play so many games a day with computers, or unknown people all around the world it is INSANE.

Scrabble Head plays so many word games each night on two I-pads it is ridiculous! I got this from my mother who can play word games all night long but does not because she wants to run the church all the time, and you have to be alive and awake to out-fox the other old ladies there. She is 88.
