This past weekend, I rediscovered how much I enjoy the game of Scrabble. I am not particularly good at the game, and to be honest, I’ve not really found anyone who wants to play the game with me. That was until this weekend.

I discovered that Pinoyboy also likes the Scrabble and furthermore, we both have an older Windows(R) copy of the game, and guess what? You can play together over the Internet! We set out to have a meetings of the minds over the Scrabble board, but as with most things, it was not that simple.

Two evenings later, Pinoyboy finally sorted out all the ports and glitches in DirectX and we were able to play. I don’t understand HOW he just figures it all out. I am truly in awe of him!

We played 3 games of Scrabble, which took us until the WEEEEE hours of the morning to complete. He came up with some amazing words and he’s much better than I since he actually looks for the Triple Word Scores etc. I really enjoyed the game and I can’t wait to do it again.

This one DEFINITELY goes into the “cut me some slack, i am a geek you know!” category.
