I wish I were going to MineCon! Take pictures for us.

Erik will, I'm sure!  I'm not going either, actually.  In point of fact I have yet to go to any game convention, anywhere...  At some point I'm going to actually have to go to one of these things, as they sound awesome-if-exhausting.

That's pretty much the whole point. I like to play the "How little sleep can I get by with and still function" game.

I take it you don't have kids, then?  Otherwise you'd never say that. ;)

No, but from my understanding, kids force you to play that game all the time anyway.

Hence the trouble.  Then you always are looking for ways to play the "how could I get some sleep and not be so exhausted tomorrow?" game.  I must say, that game's not nearly as much fun.

I got home from work yesterday and collapsed in bed at 8, right after the kids went to bed.  I woke up ten and a half hours later.  I think it is some kind of AoE debuff kids have, because it affects my wife too.

Kids definitely have an AoE debuff. At first it targets your energy, then later they let you keep some of that and the debuff attacks your money.

I have three girls.  I have to say the monetary debuffs start prenatally and get progressively stronger as they level up.  :-[
