I've mentioned this before, but this is the first month I've actually been able to go to the Lexington Scrabble Club meeting. Wish me luck!
UPDATE: It went pretty well. I played three games of Scrabble. I found out that I got on the list because the organiser had Googled Scrabble and Lexington and found a post here (a rather embarrassing post, really, so I reddened a little when I heard that). But hey, it got me out of the house, and I did pretty well considering I'm a very casual player who doesn't memorise high-score words but just have a pretty decent vocabulary. I was the only woman there this time (a friend laughed and said, 'do you realise you WERE the babe factor!' but there are normally more people. I knew one of the people from the Unitarian church years ago. Everyone was nice and I got along with them. Yeah, it was a little bit of a geekfest, but hey, it's Scrabble fanatics we're talking about. And I'll never escape my geekiness, I suspect, so I fit in just fine. I'll go next month and see how it goes. But I have to admit, it was fun, and the only trepidation I had was as a pagan entering the lair of a large Baptist church's rec building. But that turned out to be okay, too.
