2008 Banff World TV Festival Golf
Digi Delightful Brighten up Banff
June 7, 2008 By 1 Comment
Hey my digi darlings out there!
Rolled into Banff in time to make it for cocktails at the opening reception of nextMEDIA. Had heard nextMEDIA was much quieter than the TV Fest so wasn’t expecting much, but I must say that I was delighted to find a room full of vibrant, energetic digiridooroos!

Oh and there were several sexy in van cities there! Was positively excited to stumble into a photo being taken by none other than Mr Facebook – especially since, as I am sure you know, he is always good for a hug and kiss. Never seen Canada’s Coal Girl in finer form as she interviewed the digi delightful on the red carpet. I laughed as I saw the firefly entertaining herself by pinning the delegates chests with “Blog It”, “Flickr It” and “You Tube It” buttons. Never the shy one! Didn’t see Not-So-Static there, but he was obviously about as his mug is all over the festival’s new stream “nextMEDIA Exposed.” And if I dare say so myself, the boy obviously has balls with some of his exposes. I highly recommend having a watch.

Would like to think of myself as a shy shrinking violet, but I gather others don’t as when one of Van Cities wilder women saw me coming she blurted out “Oh no – I just felt my liver do a flip and I was going to be so good this weekend.” Yeah right – but then storytelling has always been a gift of hers!
As for me, I was as innocent as ever. Following a new mantra that I heard from a Banff old boy, “the oxygen is thin, so mix it up – one water for every beer – or you may find that you are no longer a Banff virgin.” Pondered that thought as I called it an early night to enjoy the company of my Banff host and ex-lover.
Beef, Banff and Babes

Well, despite my best efforts, Emme is dragging me, her easternboytoy off to Banff, probably with the inane idea that I’ll cook for her, carry her sorry ass home from whichever bar happens to get in her way. There are a few things that I’m excited about, the culture, the beautiful setting, the honeys, but mostly I’m stoked about getting to meet the people behind a few of my favourite things. I’m also having to catch up on my Gossip Girl watching (thank you TVP) as I get to meet the fabulous Stephanie Savage! I hope Emme won’t be too jealous.I mean, she knows I WILL carry her home, right? 
Spring Adventures
May 30, 2008 By 7 Comments
So my dear readers, I know I have been very negligent in writing as of late. I apologize, but I do have a good excuse. With all this talk of Spring Fever and my suggestion that you, dear readers, write in with your sexy affairs in search for spring time fever, I decided I was being a little hypocritical with all talk and suggestion, but no action. Cowardly I know. But I have spent the past two-weeks rectifying that situation. And oh, ohh, ohhhhh the stories I could tell!!! It is really too bad for you that I am such a private person!
Spring fever aside, another nice little spring adventure just fell in my lap. I AM GOING TO BANFF!!!!! That’s right for The Banff World Television Festival!! Gotta phone call last night from an ex-lover and he invited me to town for the week thinking I’d get a kick out of being in town for the television fest, which of course I will, and an old flame is never a bad way to turn up the spring heat!
Have yet to figure out the whole plan, but word on the street has it that our friends – Kris Krug, Megan Cole and Erica Hargreave of Raincity Studios and Bridging Media will be in Banff covering both nextMEDIA and the Banff TV Fest of all things! So am definitely keeping my eye on those cats, as you know that they’re bound to be at all of the best parties!
Also thinking that I’ll sign up for Sunday’s Golf Tournament, as rumor has it that a lot of the big players tee off their festival this way and I have heard that it swings off the week on a nice, relaxing stroke. That aside, am definitely signing up for the Tuesday at the festival as none other then Kim Cattrall of Sex and the City will be there!!!!! And I have to meet a gal that so clearly reminds me of Miss Kittyn on the big screen! My ex-lover also tells me that the barbecue on Tuesday night is somewhat of a Banff legend that is making it’s first debut after several years on hiatus.
The other days will be all about the meetings that I can schedule. Gotta get on that (pretty much right NOW!). The focus – definitely a literary agent – it is time to figure out what I can really do with that book I am writing – and with the release of Sexy in the City on the big screen, there definitely isn’t a better time than right now. Am also feeling particularly voyeuristic these days, so who knows, maybe it is time for that acting agent too!
More from the Rockies my dear fans!
Kisses,
Emme
