Daddy's Naughty Valentine

As most of you know I had a fundraiser on Feb. 11 called Daddy's Naughty Valentine.  It didn't go as well as planned but I dealt with the issues and had fun with it no matter what!  I am proud to have had my friends out to help me especially Sir Dart who traveled in from Toronto to help participate in the fundraiser.  If you weren't able to come out to the fundraiser you sure missed Sir hog tying me and throwing me face down on the stage, which was very hot!!  You also missed me being pulled around the bar with clothespins and money hanging off of my body. Which was hot as well! The jello shots and the raffles went around, we had four different raffle baskets. This same night was also a drag show at the bar so I worked with the queens to have a good night together.  Though there were many people that kept giving us weird looks and making comments I had fun with it, and can't wait to do another fundraiser with Sir Dart again!  But if you missed this one you don't want to miss the next one I have planned.  Just think of some type of Military Maneuvers with dogtags, camo, and partially naked boys.  If you want to help out please send me a message or a email!

Once again thank you Sir Dart for making this a Fun Fundraiser!!
Thanks!

HIV

So I was just thinking to myself while I was washing the dishes that two days ago (Jan. 27th) was my two year anniversary of discovering that I was HIV +. I remember that I was sad and depressed about it and I didn't really have anyone to talk to. I remember that I had had thoughts of taking my life because I didn't know why god would have given me the disease with no cure. But I thought about it and there is a reason he gave it to me, I was in a hole. My life was sucking, I had a crappy job no real friends just people who posed themselves as a friend and turn around to stab you while your not looking. But now I look back and see that it had changed me. From then to now I have made so many friends, some are positive some are negative, but they don't care what your status is as long as you are true to yourself. Its amazing that two years of being HIV + I didn't have to take any sort of meds, but on the 27th of Jan I started taking Atripla. We shall see how that med works with me and if it is going to help lower my counts and everything. HIV really doesn't change who you are, its you who changes who you are. I was in a hole and for some strange reason it made me look at myself and want to better myself. Thats when I realized I needed to do more for myself and more for the community, and since then I have been helping with different charities and fundraisers in the different states that I have lived in. I love helping and I really don't think I'll be stopping anytime soon! This is just a random blog of thoughts that I have had today, it is a bit jumbled, but I hope you understand what it means really.

Fundraisers

So just a random thought that I have had for the last couple of days. I don't mind going to fundraisers and helping out people that need the help. But why should I continue to go to one bar where the money raised at a fundraiser goes to one individual all the time? Its not right to just throw a fundraiser and have it go to your travel fund, its not right! You are a member of the community a title holder and someone that is there to help, but you care about yourself? Its just not right....Just random thoughts about it really. I just don't want to deal with this bullshit anymore!

A Change!

Hey Everyone, I have finally gotten the blog and websites up and running, just doing the last minute editing of everything. I am still working on the pics for the website, trying to figure out a good way to get them all published in certain albums.  So just working on that, as of this week I am working 0500-0800 M-Th then off Fri and Sat have three fundraisers in Columbus, OH to go to on that day so lets hope I can make it to all three! I don't really have much more to say on here as of right now other than I am still working out the last minute kinks on things. If you see something that looks wrong or out of place please don't hesitate to let me know on here or at my email(armycub@gmail.com) I would appreciate it very much!

Thanks!

Congratulations!!

I am first off wanting to say Congratulations to all contestants we all won, we went out there and had fun!  I do want to announce that I am the new 2010 Ohio Valley Regional Leather Pride boy!  My ass is still hurting from the clip board that was spanked HARD on my ass....Thanks Bryon!  I do also want to announce your new title holders for Ohio Valley Regional(OVR)).  You have the OVR Mr Leather Pride who is Daddy Mike, OVR Master Mistress Isadora, and the OVR Slave is Slave Steven, OVR Leather Cub is Ryan Ruetz (my exile brother and now OVR brother), OVR Leather Bear Ky Eaton, OVR Ms Bootblack is Gidget, and the OVR Mr Bootblack is Piglet. That is your 2010 Ohio Valley Regional Title Holders!  I am looking forward to getting on with things and helping out now, Reminder in a few weeks I am starting the raffle for a basket that will have random things in it, the items are to be determined.  But the money raised from that basket will be going to the Aids Resource Center of Ohio here in Dayton!  The last thing tonight is that I would also like to say thank you to David Watt for sending the Mr. Friendly goodies for my basket! Exile bar for the bar tab for the basket, Chamber on High for there donation, and the patrons of exile that helped me with my fundraiser to raise the money for my basket, if it wasn't for these people I would not have been able to have such a nice looking basket!  Well this is the end for me for tonight, I am exhausted and have to be up in just a couple of hours to travel back to Columbus, but it is worth it!  I love you all and hope you all are doing well!!

"Giving From The Heart" -Me

Today Is The Big Day!

Today is the big day! The Launch of this site, as well as the first day of the Ohio Valley Regional Leather Contest!  This website I hope will be a big hit for me! I have put a good amount of time in it, and had to think about what I want to do with it.  So I came up with the idea of creating another basket for a charity.  The basket that I create is going to be raffled off at Exile in September, the date is still TBA but everything raised for that basket will go to the Aids Resource Center here in Dayton for funding for them.  The reason why i chose them to be the recipient of the money is that the Ryan White Foundation has made some changes and different resource centers in the different areas have lost funding that they need to keep running and helping people in need.  Some people such as myself we need the help from these different organizations.  I have the urge to help the people in need and right now they need our help!  So please start spreading the word, if you would like to donate something to this basket feel free to email me, or leave a message in the guestbook.  Also please don't forget to make it out to Axis to support myself and Ryan (Exile Cub) during the contest this weekend.  We have worked hard to get things together for this and we know our hard work will pay off this weekend.  I hope that everyone enjoys there weekend, and I will keep everyone up to date on here about whats going on!
