Seattle, WA -- Shortly after my last post while in Chicago, I learned that David Caldwell had passed away. David was a beloved member of our leather/Sm community and had been serving as Northwest Leather Boy this year. He was also a regular client and dear friend. Without going into the details of his death, I will simply state his passing was a senseless tragedy that left many of us emotionally wrecked... myself among them.

I haven't felt much like writing the last few weeks. Truth be told, I hadn't felt like doing much of anything.

Last Saturday we held a memorial at the Cuff for David. It gave us an opportunity to come together, remember and celebrate his life. I can't say I'm not still angry, but I must say it's time to let go.
