Comrades, the epic DOPE scrabble battle has long last ended and I am sad to announce defeat. (While my opponent was more than happy to announce victory... at our division wide meeting. I'm making a great impression at work.) For awhile there, it appeared that I might pull a comeback with GOUTIER but alas, sometimes good does not overcome evil and the underdog, well, goes under. In the brawl of letters, my measly BA could not compare to Brilliant but Devious Doc's JD, MD, and MPH. And thus it was a close defeat (just 8 points even though he had a bingo and command of most of the triple word posts), more like the grueling Gettysburgh than an outright slaughter that the Other Side had hoped (in this case I'd be the Conferedrate... hm, need to rework analogy), but a defeat nevertheless. Lose not hope, my fearless leaders, for this is merely the first battle of what should be a long and glorious war.
Plus, BbDDoc brought in his son today. And boy is one cute infant.
My. It's the first snowfall of the year!
