I told myself if I hit a million I wouldn't have to play it ever again.

Is that the one where you have 2 minutes to make as many words as possible out of 6 characters?

If so - Emmett and I have been known to tag team that game on long car trips using the palm - I'm good at figuring out the 6-letter words in my head after he reads me the characters.

Boggle or Scrabble, sometime?

That's the one! I'm impressed that you do them in your head. I'm not at all sure I could do that. I recognize them pretty quickly on-screen, though.

I suck at Scrabble because I haven't memorized its dictionary. I know English, not Scrabblese. How does Boggle work? You get a random pile of characters and make as many words as you can within a time limit?

I haven't memorized the Scrabble dictionary, though I have learned a bunch of the obscure 2-letter words.

Boggle - it's where you have a grid of letters (4x4 or 5x5) and you have a few minutes to make as many words as you can using letters that connect. Look up the game Tangleword(s) on Playsite - same game, with a few more options.

I'd be happy to play a few rounds of Tangleword if you like, tonight. (Slight chance Emmett will need my help with something, but it wouldn't take us long to do a round or two to give you the idea).

Hi! Didn't see this until this morning. Boggle / Tangleword sound(s) fun and addictive. Perhaps I'd better not get involved in it too quickly!

Speaking of gaming, do you have any time free this weekend? I do, and geocaching would be fun...

Ooo, I might. Sunday is empty on the calendar right now. How does Sunday look for you?

[cyan-blue.livejournal.com]

Sunday looks fine! Noonish?

Lovely! Sneha?

Sure!
