A side of a tile flooring project abuts a strip of wood. How should I handle the side where the tile meets the wood so the wood won't absorb all the water from the grout?

You may not want to grout that joint. Caulking (using a matching color with the grout) may be the better solution. This way it will not crack as the wood expands and contracts over time with temp/humidity changes.
