I think this is why alot of us do it. Most of the guys on Cael Horde that box talked about this a few days ago. Most of us have kids or work jobs that have strange hours, or see us permantly on-call. Its easier for us to appreciate the time we do get in WoW though as our time is pretty limited. I remember when I was studying, with no serious girlfriends and a part time job where I set my own hours - I played MMO's pretty hardcore.

You will find you enjoy WoW more the less you play or better yet, if your time suddenly becomes limited because you fill it with something else you will value your time to yourself a bunch more. Try making a google docs spreadsheet with a list of things you want to achieve - but dont stick to it like a task list. Simple use it to remind yourself of goals you can do when you login and dont know what to do with yourself.

I'd say take a nice long break before Cataclsym. Dont be burnt out the day the thing launches!

The way you post and play though - I almost get the impression you are using WoW for far more than escapism. You seem like you've got something to prove or achieve but don't really know what it is. I think you'll find its this chop and changing and constant posts that get you the reactions from some that it does.
