I've consciously decided not to buy Factorio because I know that would be my favourite thing for months, if not years to come and it would distract me from my duties.
Because of the sleep deprivation I felt the day after, I decided it was cocaine and dumped it.

Yep. I've had a more than my share of "five minute" gaming sessions like that :)
So your comment alone would tell me all I need to know about the nature of the pull of this game.

There is always something small you meant to do, one more improvements that will take only a min... suddenly you hear birds singing outside... its 4am...
Never again.
