I know you’re all dying to know what I’ve been up to and I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you (or more aptly Fuzzywiggle Furrypants would and she doesn’t like getting her paws dirty).

In all seriousness, it’s time for some changes in my world – good changes – big changes. A little spring cleaning for the soul if you will.  Starting the year off with a fresh new space and a fresh new look.

What are these changes that I speak?

• Well for one, its time to finish the novel, ‘Single in the Suburbs’ that originally started me down this path.  And then get started with my Mom on it’s sequel, ‘My Mom, the Junkie’.
• Two, it’s time.  I feel ready.  For what?  Well, some gals would say ‘their Prince Charming’, for me it’s ‘My Snuggly Old Blankey’.
• Three. I’m striving for balance. I bit of a lofty goal I know, but if you don’t try, you’ll never succeed.

This new space is my journey to the above and it’s pages will be filled with the characters and settings that inspire me along the way, along with those heroes that do their best to catch me when I fall.  Because no matter how independent we are, every gal needs her heroes .

Speaking of heroes, I would be most remiss if I didn’t mention two, aside from my family, that have really helped to inspire this new space and clarify it’s direction.  An enormous thanks to Tris Hussey, you sexiest of devils, for the whisperings of WordPress themes and SEOs in my ear.  And a great big thanks to Jennifer Priest, who is coaching me on finding my path to fulfilling my dreams.  I’m finding my sessions with her to be incredibly inspirational, so I will share an account of my journey with her here.

For all the Sexy in Van City fans out there, no worries, it will continue with Kittyn.  So stay tuned as she puts her own cat spin on the site.  You can always get a blast from the past here too.  Just scroll through my ‘Little Black Book’ for  Sid’s, Sir von Ritter’s, Miss Roo’s and my old Sexy in Van City Posts.  They’re the ones dated February 2009 or earlier.

Love and Light (and as always Kisses),

I’m Emme Rogers and this is the story of the shenanigans and debauchery that my friends and I get up to here in Van City – the good, the bad, the hysterically funny and embarrassing moments in our life’s – trust me there are a lot of them. The bizarre has a habit of following me.  My friends describe my life as a bit of a soap opera and for years they have been telling me I should write my stories down, so I am finally doing that with this blog diary.  Because I personally don’t find my life to be all that entertaining, I have invited a couple of my girlfriends to join me here.  You’ll meet them soon.

More importantly gals – we are planning on turning this blog into a bit of a guide for us gals on all those things that we are a bit too embarrassed to ask or you think just happens to you. Guys pay attention as you may learn a thing or two too that will help to make you that “enlightened new age guy” or at the very least help you to get the girl. Due to my infinite nerdiness and lack of girl skills (I was a tomboy growing up), I just assume that it was just me that wasn’t aware of many female secrets – like how to orgasm during intercourse – but as a result of regularly losing all pride and dignity due to lack of coordination and often being the brunt of the jokes – I am not afraid to ask my friends about the horrifyingly embarrassing.  To my shock, I have discovered a lot of other gals are as in the dark as I am and are dying to know those hidden female secrets.  Stay tuned as we are hoping to bring you these secrets via some video blogs.

Love and light,
