Effing words with friends

Tonight I thought I won my first game. I had the lead twice and was ahead by 6 points and we each had one letter left. Then wifey (no longer a friend) scored 4 pts and my two point letter U counted against me for 2 and it was a tie. So that elusive first win is still in the future but at least this is one game I didn't lose: it was a tie.
