It's that British bulldog spirit! :D

8hrs, in all truth, reaches that point where it's so bad, it's good all over again. I basically assume I'll have no more than 4hrs' sleep on any given con day (I was up til 6:30 after the dance this year, just talking to people I met at the dance), so when you're mixing that with that much lag, the concept of 'body clock' goes out the window. I'm either awake or not; there's no tiredness 'til I hit the pillow!

I used to be able to do that, until I lost all ability to sleep in due to work. (Being at work at 10 AM is a late day, 7-8 AM was normal most days.) Then my body adjusted (and revolted), and started going to sleep earlier. I'm sure if I were even talking to people, my mind would not have noticed, but... -_-

As for you two concerned about not knowing people... Nyuu~! T_T *tacklesnugglesmish* Neko will always be happy to talk to/hang out with you when he has a free moment! Most people at the con are very welcoming and receptive, so even if you only have fleeting conversations as you pass, there's lots of smiles and a very wlecoming attitude, by my experience~

Fear not, you will be well looked after! :D :wink:

Well, my problem is that I'm a VERY shy person at my core. I find the analogy of being a baby chick in a shell constantly being reinforced due to being hurt works well, but I know that if I don't lessen the toughness of the shell, I'll die without being born. (Did I watch too much Utena? Maybe...) But, my enclosure means if I don't know you somehow, I'm not going to be the one to initiate. People from the forums here, well, you already know my personality, so I'm more likely to be open around you guys. (My online shell is very weak; and my real shell knows that if you've not hurt me in my online shell, it'll let you in.) Otherwise, well... I always tell people to feel free to ask me questions, since I hate rambling like this...
