Hey Mom

I like cock.

WOOOOOAAAAHHHH!!!

Where'd THAT come from?

I was reading Okay Seriously's Blog today and on this post one of her comments (written by SLC Urban Princess, who is friggin' hilarious check her out) reminded me of this story.

I'm going to get pretty personal here folks. Be warned.

Anyway, so I remember a trip home from school one semester. You see, I didn't have a car in college, so when I wanted to go home, my mom would have to drive up to pick me up and then I would drive us back home. And it was during these long car rides home that I would catch Moms up on what was going on in la vida Ari.

This particular trip was right after Gay Pride Week and of course my school being I think somewhere between 15-20% homosexual (or maybe that's just the percentage of my friends who are, I forget) there were quite the wide array of activities going on. It was also the year that two of my very best friends realized they were lesbians and wanted to use this week to "Come Out".

I know what you're thinking. Is she about to tell us she's gay? No. That's not it. But don't get me wrong, it's not from a lack of "experimenting". I mean, I gave it the ol' college try (pardon the pun), but it just never took. But I digress.

So we're driving home on the back road of Tejas and here is how the conversation went:

Me: yeah so today, I went to the Coming Out Rally today.

And I guess maybe I paused, because that's when I hear...

Mom: So, what are you telling me? That you came out today?

Me: ?????!!!!?????WHAT?????!!!?????

I think I almost killed us on the road that day, because I remember my Mom screaming at me when I realized I was driving on the wrong side of the road.

But I got it together enough to continue...

Me: What, Mom? As a heterosexual? *pause* Uhm, No. It was for Carrie and Kathryn. I was there to support them.

Mom: Oh. *pause* Cause you know, if you're gay. You can tell me. I will still love you.

I was literally 2 seconds from saying "No, Mom, I like cock." But I wasn't sure how'd she respond, so instead I said...

Me: I appreciate that Mom, but don't worry I like guys.

To this day, I still wonder what my mom would have said to me if I had said that to her. I think she might have pretended to be shocked, but at the same time probably would have laughed it off w/relief. My mom has always been a little TOO open about sex with me. Maybe that's why I don't EVER talk about it with her. Because she's so comfortable talking about it. Who knows.

So, yeah. I like cock, folks. Especially when they're...

hehe, don't worry I go there... today.
