Thanks to one stupid mistake (just the one, honest) and a weird blind spot I really should've poked and prodded harder than I did, today's Wordle took twice as long to solve as it needed to. I'm annoyed, and it's all my own fault. But I did at least stumble and flounder my way to the right word eventually, so that probably counts for something. I don't think Wordle minds, so maybe I shouldn't either.
