Christmas " Cheerios"

"After all the Christmas madness it's nice to just chill and enjoy a friendly game of Scrabble."

"Right Ma. Like when's that gonna happen? Friendly Scrabble is not what we do and you know it." W A R ............12 points

"Maybe we should make a New Years Resolution to be less competitive."
B L U F F .........18 points

"What if we just say we will and don't? Now give me your best shot."
B O A S T ..........10 points.

"We didn't have much time to talk last weekend. What did Jim get you for Christmas? I'm assuming it wasn't an engagement ring or you'd have called."
G I F T S........12 points.

"No. There was no engagement ring. In fact there was no Christmas for us."
P A I N .......6 points.

"What happened? Did you guys get called into work or something?"

"Nope. That would have been better actually. Jim did a really mean, stupid thing Christmas Eve."

"Oh no! The guy has no filter between his head and his mouth. What did he do this time?"
T R U T H ..........8 points.

"We were going to open our gifts and he insisted I open a very special little box first. It was a jewelry box and I thought maybe, just maybe. When I opened it, sitting in the middle of the box was a piece of Cheerio cereal. Jim's idea of a non-engagement ring joke." F O O L .......7 points.

"Your kidding me right? He couldn't possibly be that stupid or that mean. What the hell is the matter with him?" A N G E R ...........18 points.

"Mom, he thought it was funny. When I started to cry he got mad. Said I was too sensitive, and we ended up in a huge fight. We decided not to open any of the other presents and I went to bed and cried all night." E X C U S E .........32 points.

"Oh my God, Sarah, I'm so sorry. And you were so excited about giving him that Harley Davidson jacket. What a horrible thing to happen. Now what? If it were me, I'd take the jacket back and pack up his shit. But that's just me."
G U I L T Y ..........16 points.

"Oh and that's another thing. When we did open our gifts, he didn't like the $650 jacket I bought. Said he wanted a new gun instead. We fought about it all Christmas Day too, but then it's like always, we just kind of let it go and move on. He said he was sorry. He got me a really cool Iphone and some other stuff."

"You'll never really let it go. I know I couldn't. I'd always remember the hurt."

"Well, he's not gonna change. He's always going to be insensitive and clueless."
A C C E P T ....... 15 points.

"So why ..........?"

"Don't even ask Mom. We make it work. That's all that counts."

"Would you like me to punch his lights out for you? I don't think he'd put up much of a fight. He honestly deserves a good kick in the ass. " R E S C U E ..........8 points.

"What are you doing, Mom? You could have reached that triple score easily. Don't you dare throw this game! I can hold my own." A C C U S E ........10 points.

"Oh, I have no doubt of that. And I would never throw a game!"
L I A R ......5 points.

"Just making sure." W H A T E V E R ................ "Double score. All seven tiles so we add a little bonus".........86 points.

"Well I'll be ...... You sneaky little brat. Suggestion! Take back the jacket and get a credit for it. Then go out and buy a plastic squirt gun. Wrap it in a box large enough to look like the gun Jim really wants. Then give it to him as a goodbye gift!"

"Whoa. Mom. You are the queen of mean"

"All's fair in love and war." P A Y B A C KS See, I was just waiting to reach that triple. Looks like 60 points with the triple plus bonus for all seven tiles." 110 points!
