My favorite story: growing up, I was really good friends with this girl who's Mom was an Everquest dev (like, the first one.)

Post-launch, she became so addicted to her own game, she had to quit her job and lived in a small apt, forgoing clothes and only eaing the easiest of food.

At the time it was funny...

So what ended up happening to her?
Last I saw her, she had transitioned to WoW and was scraping by running conventions. I wish I remembered her last name, I'm curious what her daughter made of herself.
Was her name Pygmalion?
