I've been bingeing again. I went to an all-night LAN party last Friday in which I was introduced to Battlefield 1942. I took my 7 year old. He's a gamer like me and we loved it. He was also excited that he got to stay up late for once. He tells everyone he stayed up till 4 am because that's when we went home. In reality, he fell asleep at about 11 pm on the blanket and pillow I brought for him. I, myself, am too old to try such a stunt again anytime soon. I'm still feeling the effects. I can't pull all-nighters anymore like I used to in college when I had a paper due the next day. I hardly ever started a paper sooner than the night before, so I would frequently stay up all night, write the paper, and get up from the computer and go to school. Then I'd work an eight-hour shift before going home. I can't do it anymore. This just about killed me. And now I'm addicted to the game. Can't get anything worthwhile done.
