Secret of the Game

Usually I'm the one who likes things nice and organised, but when it comes to Scrabble, Bob likes a tidy board--so much so that he spends part of each game making sure that the tiles are in their exact spots, like a wooden version of colouring within the lines.

He'll sometimes take to this tidying up in the middle of my turn--which can be a bit distracting as I'm searching the board for a place to put my tiles! In case you're wondering, he won. Twice: the first time by a solid sixty points and the second time by a more suspenseful two points. Hmmm . . . maybe I should take to tidying tiles?
