Today's Wordle ------- spoilers alert!

I was on to the crabs early on because of hermit and horseshoe, I just didn't know any other crab names but figured I'd find them along the way. And I did 

Horseshoe crabs are one of my favorite animals. Did you know their blood is blue? Their blood is very beneficial for some kind of human ailment. I forget which kind. On the Eastern Seaboard, they are caught and their blood is harvested and then they are returned to the sea.

On the mouse front, EDelMar stopped by to pick up something from me and put my mouse back together, and it works! So, no more trackpad. It was like magic.

Actually, the horseshoe crab blood is special because it clots around bacteria.  It is used to ensure the safety of vaccines and injectable drugs.

Thank you, I knew it was something like that, but I was fuzzy on the details.

Horseshoe crabs are one of my favorite animals. Did you know their blood is blue? Their blood is very beneficial for some kind of human ailment. I forget which kind. On the Eastern Seaboard, they are caught and their blood is harvested and then they are returned to the sea.

On the mouse front, EDelMar stopped by to pick up something from me and put my mouse back together, and it works! So, no more trackpad. It was like magic.

I seem to remember about the blue blood. It's fascinating.

I hate it when my mouse doesn't work. It's usually because either it needs a new battery or there's too much dust and cat hair in it. I wonder where that came from
