This was great, as I like the idea that your pen name is a sort of division of yourself, like you see her as a separate person almost. I sort of that way with the chartacters I paint. Like they are a little bit of me slipped out into the world I create to go on living after I am done with it, like a Me in a multiple universe.
I with you on coffee, I can drink it before bed and it never stops my sleep cycle. I usually now only have coffee in the morning and then tea for the rest of the day, but as I grew up my family always had coffee after dinner. And the first time I was allowed it was when I felt like a 'grown up' of course I put tons of sugar and cream in as the taste was bad when I was like 12, now its either black or just a little cream.
I hope you have a blast at SF, I wish I could go this year, but just doesn't gel with my schedule, but maybe SF4.
