For those heading to Worldcon, the Pocket Program is now online.

I sprained my brain this weekend trying to figure out how I could arrange a meetup with an ex who lives in the Denver area. Worldcons are generally busy, but add in having to work scheduled hours for the day job, and wanting to spend time with my sister and niece, and it's even more complicated than usual.

Here's how the schedule looks so far:

Tuesday: Fly to Denver
Meet up with sister. Attend Rockies baseball game.

Wednesday 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM (approx)
Day job - development forecast load

Thursday 2:30 PM
Reading

Thursday 5:30 PM
Torchwood: Doctor Who for Grownups? (Moderator)

Thursday 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
Day job - 5WD financials. Technically I should start this at 5:30, but due to programming conflict I'll have to work quickly to get things done before evening batch, or settle in for a long night.

Friday 11:30 AM
Urban Fantasy: Still Room to Grow?

Friday 4:30 PM - 7:00 PM
Day job - 6WD financials

Saturday Daytime
Spend time with my sister and niece

Saturday 4:00 PM

Sunday: Fly home to Binghamton

Here's my Denvention schedule, as it stands for now.

Tuesday: Arrive Denver
Meet up with sister. Attend Rockies baseball game.

Thursday 2:30 PM
Reading (Planning to let audience decide which book I'm reading from)

Thursday 5:30 PM
Torchwood: Doctor Who for Grownups? (Moderator)

Friday 11:30 AM
Urban Fantasy: Still Room to Grow?

Saturday 4:00 PM

I'm pleased with the schedule-- enough events so I feel like an active contributor to the con, while still allowing plenty of time to attend interesting program items and meet up with friends. And my sister is planning on coming for at least one day of the con, to see what it's all about, so I'll be showing her around.

Denvention update-- I now have tickets to see the Colorado Rockies game Tuesday night with my sister. As you can see, I've got my priorities straight. The rest of the arrangements can wait.

I have plane tickets for Denvention. This makes it significantly more real.

Flying out a day early so I can spend time with my sister before the convention starts. Tickets weren't cheap, but the only other option was driving up to Syracuse and flying through O'Hare. And honestly, it's worth it to spend the extra bucks to skip O'Hare.
