We’re already past the halfway mark in November somehow, and Thanksgiving is just around the corner. It’s been a big month.

Wordle Analysis
Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
The reason I guessed FAIRY today—and man was it lucky!—is because I’d just written my review of the latest episode of FROM on MGM+. If you haven’t watched that TV series, I highly recommend you do. In any case, I was musing on some theories I have about the nature of the place, which I won’t get into detail on, and the word FAIRY was in my head because of it, and so I plopped it in and voila! A green box and three yellow boxes. I came up with two possible choices after this: FRAIL and FLAIL and went with the one that didn’t contain a double letter. I was right! Huzzah!
Competitive Wordle Score
I get 2 points for guessing in two and 1 point for beating the Bot, who took three tries today. 3 points for me! Huzzah again!

Today’s Wordle Etymology
The word “frail” originates from Latin fragilis (“easily broken”), through Old French fraile, and Middle English fraile. It reflects the idea of weakness or fragility.
