Scrabble Mania Takes a Turn

I was playing competitive scrabble with my cousin the other day
when I suspected my anagram practice was getting in my way.
was it helping or hurting? Frankly, it was difficult to decide.
Taco-cat spelled backwards and forwards helped me to rapidly turn the tide.

She took my best spot, which was going to give me 146 points,
I was so mad, I nearly popped all my fingers out of place at their joints.
I realized that what has already been routinely, nightly over-done 
may not be the best use of my time, as it has ceased to be so much fun.

I am a marathon Scrabble player; I average about 4.5 hours a night and I am truly loving it still, I hate to admit.
