It would be fair to say that a healthy portion of my relationship with Becca revolves around hard-nosed, utterly trivial, to-the-death competition. This has manifested itself in various ways across the years, (including a cross country trip that I’m sure beat several world records) but most recently it’s been Othello. (otherwise known as “Reversi”:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversi ) Our morning visit to the coffee shop now includes a hard fought game of Othello that takes up to two hours, and can often dictate whether or not I consider the day as a whole to be a success. Above, Becca concentrating on this morning’s game. She won. By a lot.
