Bleh. It’s Monday. Again.
It’s especially hard to return to the beginning of the week after a long weekend, but I suppose it also has its perks. Kids are back in school!
We’re almost at the end of the leaf season, so I’m planning on going on several this week while kids are getting their first-rate educations.
Anyways, let’s Wordle shall we?

Wordle Bot Analysis
After each Wordle I solve I head over to the Wordle Bot homepage to see how my guessing game was.
I guessed leave because of the leaves all so pretty and golden, but it wasn’t a great opener, leaving me with 146 remaining options.
Choir was a better second guess, slashing that number down to just 4 and giving me two more yellow boxes to go with my green ‘A’.
Trash slashed that number down to just 1, though I admit I was a little sad it wasn’t the right answer. So close yet so far away!
Only one optioned remained that I could think of and sure enough, graph for the win!
Today’s Score
Deja vu: I get 0 points for guessing in four and -1 for losing to the bot, who guessed in just three. -1 point! Again!
Today’s Wordle Etymology
The word “graph” has its roots in ancient Greek. It is derived from the Greek word “graphein,” which means “to write” or “to draw.” In the context of mathematics and data representation, “graph” originally referred to a diagram or a visual representation of data, often involving points and lines to illustrate relationships or connections between different elements. Over time, this concept evolved and became an important term in various fields, including mathematics, computer science, and data analysis, where it is used to describe various types of data structures and visual representations.
