Despite rumors (started by me) that my stint last year as GoH had broken Lunacon, the fine folks at Programming have come through with a schedule. No doubt there will be some changes before the actual event (now less than a week away), but for your edification and amusement, here is where I think you can find me, at least as of right now.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you my pre-final schedule for Lunacon 2012:

For good or ill, Barry believes he is the convention’s unofficial Plushie GoH (I’ve tried explaining it to him, but he just won’t listen — I doubt they’ll even have a badge for him). If you’d like to humor him, the odds are good that you can find him riding on my shoulder throughout most of the convention (at least when he’s not in the bar, drowning his sorrows in barbecue sauce). I would consider it a kindness if you’d stop and pose for a photograph with him.
