Missed Opportunities: a haiku

So, maybe you heard that I was one of the winners of this archives haiku contest? Some people asked for an illustrated version, so here you go. I made this one extra big so you can print it out at any size and stick it on your wall.

Title: Missed Opportunities. Haiku: Hey, handsome stranger/ Saw your pic in the archives/ Too bad you're dead now. And who's that daguerreotype hottie? "Portrait of a Young Man," from the Museum of Photographic Arts Collections http://www.flickr.com/photos/mopa1/5710931881

Deranging SAA

Derangers, come find me at SAA and I will give you one of these for your badge:

Deranger ribbon

Unless you are the archivist who so generously indulged my desire to hear the phrase “XSLin’ like a felon” in an SAA webinar, in which case your ribbon is already in the mail to you. (If you aren’t coming to SAA but still want a ribbon, let me know after the conference and we’ll work something out.)

Likely places to find me are:

• The Social Media Forum, where you’ll get to see what happens when SAA lets me work on a presentation
• The Tweetup and Beer Roundtable
• The Drexel reception
• The SAA Career Center, from 11 AM-1 PM on Saturday. I will be offering career advice and hugs.
• Anywhere with free food (students and new archivists represent!)
