Busy busy bees

I haven't been blogging much not because I don't have things to say but because I'm so busy that I've not had the time to sit down and write them - I've been saying them all out loud. But sometimes the written word has more staying power and I want to talk more about all the work we've been doing.

It's January, which means - among other things - Sir & I are in our final quarter as Washington State Mr & Ms Leather 2012.
To be honest, we spent the last few weeks being quiet and dealing with all of our work and planning and just sitting and wondering "where the hell did the year go?"

We've been working for the last few weeks to confirm dates and themes and beneficiaries for our fundraisers and I'm happy to say we have 3 out of 4 confirmed. We also are working to get the final details confirmed for a contest we'll be hosting with the CSPC : Northwest Iron Dom, Titanium Sub & Steel Toed Bootblack on March 15th at the CSPC. More details will be following but if you're interested in competing or just more info, please contact me or Sir. (GMail at bottom of this post)

The first quarter of the year is busy in Washington, especially the Seattle area, for titles.
Last weekend was the 49th Annual Mr/Miss Gay Seattle pageant hosted at Neighbors Nightclub.
Next weekend is the Knights of Mantra Beggars Feast at the Royal Hall.
Saturday 2/16 will be the Seattle Coronation 2013 - The President’s Ball: A Cruise Around the World, Lake Style to be hosted at the Seattle Renaissance Hotel.

On top of that, Sunday 2/10 will by my first fundraiser and will benefit the King County Youth Development Project & Lifelong Aids Alliance Chicken Soup Brigade (http://kcydf.org & http://www.llaa.org); we are going to have a mid-winter Luau at Changes in Wallingford (2103 North 45th Street  Seattle, WA 98103). There is a food drive for the Chicken Soup Brigade - please feel free to bring by donations any time from today up through the 10th of February. We will continue to collect until the end of the night! If you can make it out, we'd love to see you and I'll be posting a Facebook event soon - hopefully this weekend.
My second fundraiser will be in Spokane and will benefit the Spokane AIDs Network (http://www.san-nw.org/about/) and I'll have more information on that coming shortly. This event will be the first of three "Taste of Kink" themed fundraisers we do.

Sir also has two fundraisers in the works, the first will benefit Coccoon House (http://www.cocoonhouse.org/index) to be held on March 2nd at Bar Myx (1212 California St Everett, WA 98201). We are working to have a line up of local Tops & Doms who are interested in hosting an educational/taste tables available for folks.
The second fundraiser will be March 9 in Tacoma and we are working to confirm the beneficiary on this one by Friday and then I'll have more information. This will be the final of the Taste of Kink events.

On top of all of this, our monthly OutWest Leather Night has been an amazing social event each month and we are starting to see a large mix of folks from all walks of the kinky life joining us. If you haven't, we'd love to see you out next time: our next Leather Night will be hosted at OutWest Bar (5401 California Avenue SW Seattle, WA) on February 7 from 7-9.

Until the next time, stay warm, safe and kinky!
