I see the Wordle more as a gauge as to how my brain is functioning. I do crosswords for the same reason. As for judging myself, that died a long time ago. It’s not a question of fun or not — just another tool to help me understand my abilities at a certain time. It could be, if I did it later in the day, the score may be entirely different. For now, it is what it is, and there will be another one tomorrow. So no worries!
Off to the shower!
