Late with the blog today because I was watching some Opening Day baseball during the mid afternoon time frame when I’ve been writing these entries. My Nationals lost 7-2 to start what is looking like a long rebuilding season. So what’s usually a fun day did not go well. Oh well, hopefully your team has a better season than mine does.
My first guess today was EQUAL. Kind of a strange guess for an opener since it has a Q, but hey, I wanted to get three vowels today for some reason. I get the A in the right spot and a yellow block for the E, so I guess this worked better than my usual A/E guess, but maybe I’m just trying to justify my wild guess.
For my second guess, I decide to put the E next to A, it’s the only place that makes sense to me as I work through words in my head. After some quick thinking, I land on SPEAK and get a green box for the E. Ok, I’m narrowing it down. I start thinking of what two-letter combination goes at the front of the word, I briefly consider CH, but don’t use it. SP pops in my mind, but I literally just used it for SPEAK. So that’s not going to work. I arrive on TR and for some reason I type in TREAD. What a great word, I think. Man, I’m so smart. What a good puzzle. Then I get a grey box followed by four green boxes. Damn, the word isn’t TREAD, it’s BREAD. This is the second day in a row I typed a guess too quickly and was wrong by one letter. Hmmm, maybe I should learn from this and take a moment before entering a guess. That’s a good lesson that I probably won’t learn. I guess we will find out tomorrow. When I try to extend my streak to 54.
