Holding my ground.

I've been watching a program on HD Theater called "The Art of War - Waterloo". It's a study of the strategies used by Wellington to defeat Napoleon on the battlefield. Earlier this evening, I was victorious in a valiant battle in the living room.

Our living room is divided into two territories: the couch, and the chair. The couch is mine, the chair, Melba's. I took a nap in bed earlier in the evening, and when I woke up, I found that Melba had advanced an occupying force onto the couch. I was forced to retreat to the chair. I waited to make my move.

I didn't have to wait long. Melba made a grave tactical error; a bathroom break. I made my move, and was able to successfully retake my territory.Napoleon was a little shy when Wellington tried to take her picture.
