Scrabble

I love word games. I really do. My family has always been addicted to scrabble, and now we love Quiddler as well (a word game with cards. If you've never played you should). Well, I was reading through the BBC the other day on my Google reader, and found that Mattel has decided to change the rules of Scrabble to add proper nouns! (check out the article here) I was excited - I'm always finding names and places I want to play, but am not able to! Of course, I e-mailed the article to my family - I can't have them all quibble next time I want to play a proper noun. And they all reject it! They like the old rules; and I always thought I was the traditionalist in the family! Come on guys... this is a good change!

Oh well - I guess I'll have to suffer through the old rules.

Here's a picture of Quiddler. Like I said, if you haven't tried it, you should. It may be telling, though, that my sisters and I rarely are all together, and when we do have a morning together as Renee flies through Denver to a vacation with her college friends, this is what we end up doing :)
