The Life & Miss-Adventures of Emme Rogers
Simply because everyone deserves to be kissed on Valentines Days …
… and I say that as a gal whose kisses today came from a loving little Fuzzywiggle Furrypants Roo and blown from family members across the country. May not have a ‘plus one’ in my world, but I do have a huge amount of love. Reminded everyday of that.
Valentines love and kisses,
Emme xoxo
Not an easy thing to do to decide on the perfect dates for Kittyn and I for tonight for our delightfully romantic winter date to Cypress Mountain. I’ve wanted to go on the Chocolate Fondue Snowshoe Tour for so many years now that this is not a decision to be made lightly. Also I have to say, theres been some damn sweet, most flattering and rather amusing Valentines.
So here are my thoughts:
Would love to take either Clive or Christian (@daubu), but they live too far away to make it here on time.
Adore my little Dose of Lunacy (@monicahamburg) and @saltybean, but they hate snow and I don’t want them ruining my love of snow (already I’m thinking of gagging Kittyn, at least until we arrive at Hollyburn Lodge).
Raul will always be my Valentine, but I may have to strangle him if he starts whispering ‘sweet Microsoft Vista nothings’ in my ear, so he’s out, as that would take away from the romance.
Tris, the Hussey, is a taken man and I want a bit of romance, so he’s out.
My ginger’s letters made me laugh, but call me weird (and many have), but I don’t find having my eyeballs plucked out with a spoon to be all that romantic and I want romance.
@ericaha is the perfect snow loving gal, but she confessed to me that she actually already has plans for this evening. Should have known the good ones would go fast.
It is for my desire for romance that I’ve decided to make Keith my date. His letter is the most romantic and I do have to admit that he’s a good kisser, plus he likes nibbling on my ears.
For Kittyn, I’ve decided that ‘Savannah’ would be the perfect date for her, as they are both brats and deserve each other.
Congrats Keith and ‘Savannah’! Looking forward to discovering how the night unfolds!
Kisses,
Emme
Now that I am feeling a little embarrassed about the number of Love Letters I’ve posted on this site in the past few days, I am posting one last one (aside from any that Miss Fuzzywiggle Furrypants Roo receives in the mail, of course). I saved this one for last, as it is from a hummer of a friend, a man who always has a great big hug for me, and as he cross-posted this love letter to his blog. Thank you Raul! Love you too!

Dearest Emme,
I was walking along the streets of Gastown, and as I was doing some window-shopping, I noticed that I stared at beautiful clothes while thinking of you, longing to know when we’d hang out and talk Ubuntu, geeking out in our laptops. Yes, I admit it, Emme. I *am* a geek. A sweet, WordPress-trained geek. With a healthy dose of side skills as well. I know how to open a bottle of wine. YES! I learned to open wine bottles last year. I know – it’s like… I *should* have known how to, but oh well. I didn’t. But now I do. I even know about sustainable wines! Yes, my friend Anthony (from Farmstead Wines) distributes bio-dynamic wines, and I really love this kind of wine – I am sure you’d love it too. And yes, they are amazing. We should have a glass of a biodynamic wine when we go out chocolate-fondue-consuming
Oh, but you wonder which other skills do I have? Well, I can liveblog with CoverItLive
does that count as a skill? Um… Let’s see… which other skill do I have? Well… I am great at hummingbird-ing my way around a room while remembering the name of each and every blogger who participates in the Vancouver Blogger Meetup. Heck, I even organize said meetup!
For all the reasons above, dearest Emme… since I speak WordPress, I am learning about Ubuntu and I’m all about empowering people to be and feel sexy regardless of age, race, religion … will you be my Valentine?
Love,
Raul
I do love a man with a British accent. Sadly this one is a little too far away to join me for a romantic date on Cypress, but he did facebook me a few delightful words:
I love your photos Emme. Mystery girl. The sort a guy can dream about. Hope you have a great weekend and that it gives you all that you wish for yourself.

Thank you my two fisted, beer guzzling Brit!!
Kisses,
Emme
Okay, I received not one, but two secret admirer valentines. One from @valentwinelove that reads:
A secret admirer has just chosen you as their favorite friend at http://valentwine.com
Never bad starting the day of with a ‘secret lover’. We can all use a bit of intrigue and mystery in our lives.
The other Valentines was stuffed under my door Thursday and was signed ‘Your this Saturday Night, Savannah’. Here’s what it says:
Dearest Emme,
I won’t admit to this in public, but ever since that fated day on the Ulti pitch when you lost that bet to me, I’ve secretly desired to on a date with you. Despite the fact that you didn’t completely fulfill the bet requirements – pull down your shorts and run a lap of the field – you did, unlike the other gals on your team, pull down your shorts and dance in circle. Hot, damn hot! And bloody hilarious! So yes, I’m imagining a date with you would be one wild night and I want my name in that competition and you know I always win competitions I enter. Besides I’ve always wanted to do the Chocolate Fondue Snowshoe Tour at Cypress.
Yours this Saturday night,
Savannah
Despite not knowing a ‘Savannah’, I can be fairly certain from the words above of whom this contestant might be. Cheeky monkey!!!
