The Life & Miss-Adventures of Emme Rogers
This week’s word: Cacophony
Cacophony: A mix of sounds so horrendous that they cause us felines to yowl and hide.
‘Some two-leggers think that the feline mating ritual causes a cacophony. Admittedly, I do know a few Tom Cats that are quite boisterous in their singing, but if the two-leggers were smart enough to understand feline, then they’d realize that really this is beautiful love duet that is being sung.’

This week’s word: Beldam
Beldam: Ancient two-legger of the female persuasion that hopefully has a good personality, as she is hard on the eyes.
‘I find it amusing to call my two-legger a beldam, not because she is ugly (she’s actually rather beautiful to me both inside and out), but because ‘she who prides herself on words’ misinterprets this word. She thinks I am meowing ‘belle dame’, which is French for ‘beautiful woman’, so affection and treats are showered upon me. Oh the irony of it all.’
Clearly a 'belle dame', not a 'beldam'.

This week’s word: Balderdash
Balderdash: Total and complete nonsense. ie the sounds that usually come out of a two-leggers mouth
‘If a two-legger tries to tell you that the tray of smelly cheese on the coffee table is not for cats, that’s utter balderdash. As the supreme being, we felines will dine on whatever we wish, whenever we wish.’

Well, I am pleased to say that to date, despite the yowling of Miss Fuzzywiggle and her Royal Majesty Queen Kittyn all of the love letters that have come in have been for little old me!!!! Definitely feeling the love this Valentines, not that I don’t feel it everyday from my close friends, family and little Miss Fuzzywiggle Furrypants.
So here are the first few:
In the form of tweets from a couple of Van City’s sexiest gals and my female lovers -
@saltybean “I love you!”
@monicahamburg “I love you. I hate snow.”
Love the two of you too!!! That said, I want a date that likes the snow, I know that neither one of you are that girl. As for your unCanadian-like snow hating, I am thinking we could take that up in a therapy session.
Finally a bit of email love, from my whisperer of sweet SEO nothings:
Dear Emme,
Oh to be able to open an bottle of wine in front of the fire while we choose a new theme for SexyInVanCity. To linger over Ubuntu updates on matching netbooks and sit snuggled watching the downloads. But alas, I cannot be so lucky. For my heart has been claimed by another.
If our paths had crossed sooner, I’d be able to share chocolate dipped strawberries and champagne while we look for new adornments for our laptops.
Later we’d shop online to buy romantic things, find clever ecards, and sweet nothings.
If my heart were free I could send you DMs of how wonderful and sexy you are. How you are adored and loved, and yet I can’t.
I can only watch with jealousy the man who gets to share your company.
Oh to be your geek…
I am, however, the geek for a lovely operatic soprano who is my world.
The bittersweetness of it all…
Hot, damn hot. Dangerous though, for the fear of an unrequanted love and how could a gal not fall in love with the whisperings of SEO nothings.
Hmmm….. what to do???? Any other contenders? There is still time to get your letters in. Due to my schedule tomorrow (or today – looking at the time and early hour), I am actually extending entries to midnight tonight (Thursday) and then will announce the winner in the wee hours of Friday morning.
