SLA 2008 - Inmagic Reception, PAM Party! (Tuesday, June 17)

By emma wood

I learned last year that the PAM Division Party is legen…wait for it…dary! at SLA and this year was no exception. The theme was “Prom”, and, oddly, “Under the Sea” (the party was actually co-hosted with two other divisions, and I guess the theme-wires got crossed, or intertwined, or something…) and we all got “PROM” earrings and feather tiaras.

From librarians gettin’ in on to “Hot in Herre” to Stephen Abram cutting a rug to “You Shook Me All Night Long”, this is an event that I will always look forward to! I ran into the cool fun girl I’d met on the monorail the previous night, and she was clearly the best dancer during “Baby Got Back”. Pickup lines abounded (”I like your dress! Actually, it reminds me of some curtains my mom had!”)(”Wow, that flower you’re wearing is as big as your head. Your head is much prettier!”) and the security staff looked beyond perplexed, but everyone had a fantastic time.

And they have the nerve to schedule 8am sessions the next morning…

(Oh yeah, the Inmagic reception was microbrew-licious, too.)
