Hello from Day 20 of the current California COVID constant curfew. Today we got a notice at about noon that we shouldn’t go anywhere. As though I needed to be convinced.

I feel like I got really close to Queen Bee today. But I fell short, and I don’t know what I could possibly have missed.

Yesterday I missed two words.

I should have gotten EPIC.

But I would have felt sick if I had gotten IPECAC and missed EPIC.

Meatier misses

None.

Today’s summary

Final score: 20 words for 106 points.
Genius minimum: 80 point.
First word: HAGGLING
Pangrams: HIGHLAND, HANDLING
