So like a week ago my left testicle had a bit of pain in it. I thought maybe I was just being paranoid after reading Josh's blog posts about having pain down there and shrugged it off as imagined the first couple times. Then I was like okay maybe I slept on it wrong. But wednesday night (I was dog-sitting for my uncle at the time) it became a constant ache. And last night (thursday) I pretty much cried myself to sleep cause of the pain. So this morning I went to the doctor, and it turns out I have epididymitis, which is apparently inflammation caused by some kind of infection. So now I'm on an antibiotic and waiting for that to start bringing the pain level down.
In other news, my mom was telling me about how my father should take me to a strip club for my 21st birthday. And all I said was 'no.' And she said 'why you might like it, you never know' and I just said 'no.' She wouldn't freaking just let it go! I'm like wtf.
I'm considering confronting her about it. I had formed this conversation in my head with me saying something like this:
"Look, you put me in an incredibly uncomfortable position when you asked me if I was gay in the car, and I gave you an honest answer. But you don't seem to be able to believe me. When you made that comment about going to a strip club for my birthday, I was insulted. If Cindy wasn't there I would have said something to you, but instead I held my tongue. I wish you would just accept me instead of hoping I will become someone I'm not."
I know, it's not exactly perfect. If you guys have any advice that would be great...
hugs
ps. Cindy is my mum's friend who came down from Maine, she's been staying in our camper out in the yard with her 3 daughters. Ugh, girls are kind of annoying.

Well, I certainly hope that the infection clears up soon man. That does NOT sound like fun at all. :/
About your mom, as long as it's said in love I think you can't easily go wrong. Just think of what she's going through, what her plans and thoughts were for you, and how that's all changed with her new knowledge of who you are. Assert yourself, but take into consideration your mom's feelings as well.
*sends teh good luck wishes* :D
I think the Mom idea is a good one. :)
much love
Agree w/James: I hope the antibiotics do their job promptly. And keep taking them as long as they tell you to.
I think if you can tell your mother fairly calmly that going to a strip club won't change you (but it might get your father lusting over other women), it's a good idea. She obviously believes that you aren't attracted to women, but she naively believes that seeing a strip show will change that. Parents can have all sorts of bizarre ideas. But try not to be too angry: she's clueless.
Don't forget to finish off all your antibiotics, even after you feel better!! :)
I agree that you should really confront you mom and tell her what's on your mind. Just try to stay calm throughout and you should be okay I think.
*Hugs*
o.o fuck, thats erm... I dont really know what to say :\
I reckon the little speach you had planned would do fine the only thing is is that you dontknow how she's going to respond to that.
best of luck with that anyway :)
really hope your nuts are behaving themselves and getting better. sad to know you were in so much pain :(
as for your mum - i find it a bit of a bizarre suggestions. i'm not sure how many str8 boys your age would actually feel comfortable going to a strip club with their dad :S
but anyway, how about saying that you'll do it only if you choose the venue, then suggest some raunchy gay place (i imagine there is one somewhere near you). just a thought.
torchy!
FUCK!!
I got epididymitis right now :(
hurts all the time. feels like someone kicked me in the nuts.
it even husts to have sex, what with my balls swinging around :(
