I have post-conference deflation. After a couple days filled with fascinating presentations and impromptu discussions on the nature of play and creativity, on using games to solve problems and change the world, it was deflating to be back at the restaurant. The food’s nice and my coworkers are nice, but there’s also a Sisyphean frustration in answering the same questions over and over, whether it’s a customer asking if this comes with bread (Pro tip: Read the menu.) or a prep cook asking if this comes with bread (Pro tip: When you asked last time, I said yes. When you asked the time before that, I said yes. And the time before the time before. Also, read the menu.)
