I open with SHALT today, which does not give me any correct letters. Not really sure why I picked such biblical word, but that's where I ended up after only being able to think up a bunch of one-vowel six-letter words. While getting nothing correct sucks, I still maintain that it is a useful gathering of information. Knowing the letters that can't work is almost as useful as knowing the letters that can work.
For my second guess, I want to use an E in the word because I feel like using the most common vowel. Unfortunately, I am in a brain funk this morning and everything I want to use has an S, H, or T in it. So that's not getting me anywhere. I start looking at letter combinations that could be at the front or end of a potential answer to get me going somewhere. I land on WR--- and am ready to type in WRING for my second guess. But as I'm typing on my phone screen, I make a typo and spell WRONG. I briefly considered fixing the mistake, but decide to let it slide and hit enter. Everything turns up green! That's a very lucky solve and my ninth solve in two overall to push my current streak to 61.
Quick note on the wordles from Friday to Sunday. I was out of town this weekend, and while I did finish all three, I won't be writing up a review for them. I will say that I made the same dumb mistake on Friday and Saturday of entering a guess that had no chance of being correct because I put a letter in its yellow spot on subsequent guesses. I don't what the heck that was about.
