Begin again
Alright so I got the wordle today, but I’m still all buttered by my failure last night.
A friend says she sometimes takes an hour or longer, will leave and come back to it later. I never even considered such a strategy! I do it in like 30 seconds. Hurry rush fast fast. But there’s no bonus points for being quick. If I had taken my time last night instead of rushing I wouldn’t have wasted my last try and I would be sitting here a winner, my streak still alive, with children who loved me.
Speaking of fuck ups. I made a hat, my first hat ever, and it turned out mostly okay but it took me a long time and I had to unravel it a few times and there are still some wonky parts, it is definitely not even close to perfect. I need to make a few more, for practice, and then they’ll be better.
But maybe some of the charm of a homemade hat is the fucked up parts? no? Fine.

You can’t see it but the top of the hat is this nice, muted purple, matches the bags under my eyes, really makes them pop.
