A couple of brain farts today for me. Not everyone has a particular brand of device so one of the categories was a little tougher for me.

Snapped a 25 day perfect game streak. There was an alternative solution to the entire puzzle, especially if you're unfamiliar with purple, which I was. She does this with purple every once in an while and it always throws me because I don't know that category. I wish she'd stop using it. So that accounts for guess number 1.
The second miss was just me transferring my solution over too fast and hitting the wrong thing. I didn't actually want to select that. So just pretend that one didn't happen.

Yesterday's puzzle looks like a nightmare - I'm glad I woke up late and had no "fear of missing out" on that one. Screw building a daily streak.

One of those blues threw me off. Seemed a little tenuous to me.

Re: Connections NYT
Despite long personal and relevant experiences with the world of the purple, it flummoxed me
