Mrs. and Mrs…?

(Journal Entry #071814)

So, where do I begin? I guess I can rewind to the time where it all kind of started right??? 

Yea. Let’s start there.

OKAY! So the day after graduation I flew home. Immediately got off the plane into my car and drove to Corona. For those that don’t know, I’m not talking about the virus but the city. And that’s like a 45 minute to hour drive from my part of LA.

Where were you going Kris? Well, I had a hot date……… Yup! That’s right. I. Had. A. Date.

I had been talking (back when talking was a thing haha) to this girl while I was in college and we hit it off… Do y'all remember the phrase on Twitter “oomf”? Or the app Voxer? Yea that’s how it started. She followed me on twitter and I subliminally said oomf (one of my followers) was cute. She asked me who I was talking about and BOOM. Date. I told y’all I was slick or so I thought..

Although we hit it off so well, due to other situation-ships, we remained friends until the time was I guess “right”. 

During our time as friends I made the decision to try something different with my hair. So I cut it. OFF! While everyone raved about my new look, I had underlining agendas. The vision of my outer was finally about to match my inner.

I was... a new creature…

Time passed and our situation-ships ended and we began... We were two peas in a pod and ended up having a great relationship. We smoked. We ate. We laughed. We drank. We smoked. We loved. We smoked… As you can see there was a LOT of weed involved. Could’ve probably opened a shop with the amount of weed we smoked. … Stay focused Kristyn. Umm where was I? Oh yea…

SO anyway… things were going great. She met my mom, dad and even Granna. I met her family. We moved in together and everything was finally fitting... openly gay and it was perfect!  *cue ominous music* 

Y’all, sometimes God gets on my nerves because it doesn’t matter how far you are from Him, HE WILL FIND YOU……AND CALL YOU OUT! *rolls eyes*

The time had passed and we were progressing. Living the life so to speak. I finally found the one who loved me like nobody before. And I was content.

Coming up on my 26th birthday, God spoke to me and I had never heard Him before so I had to stop real quick. He asked me the infamous question that y’all already know… DO YOU TRUST ME? Because I was so far away, the first time I heard Him I thought I was crazy. Never in my life did I hear “the voice of God” so I went on with my life. I was CLEARLY tripping. 

Btw, His voice ain’t like Morgan Freeman or James Earl Jones. His voice might sound like yours but quaint. It’s a difference that I’ll have to explain later.

So I said earlier that He will call you out and so He spoke again. This time visually….in a dream. So I listened. He asked again, do you trust me? But this time there was more to the question. After He asked, He proceeded to tell me about myself and show me a vision of my wedding day as I stared at my husband. 

Wait, Kristyn. WHAT YOU SAY?! Yes hunny. My husband. And it was somebody that I was familiar with. (Another blog post cuz y’all…) So to say the least, I freaked out! “Like, you’re not about to tell me about myself then show me ‘my future’. Like the audacity! I’m laying here with the love of my life! Ain’t no way! A man?! Cuz, you trippin....” So I ignored it. 

There was some back and forth for a while with Him constantly asking me DO YOU TRUST ME?! I told myself that if I said yes He would finally leave me alone. Silly rabbit. Nah.... With me saying yes, He told me that if I did in fact trust Him like I said, that I needed to loc my hair. (SIDENOTE: I always start things and never finish. Like I said before, my approach was everything is temporary). 

Well, on October 14, 2014, 6 days before my 26th bday, I did what I wanted to do (what God told me to do)... I loc’d my hair. 

A new creature…

The following year in my girl and I’s relationship, I decided to go to Zales with my bestie to pick out a ring because I knew what I wanted. And it was her. Life was, again, great. I thought I was cool with my messy twigs and figured the vision God gave me was a hoax. So I was going to live my life how I wanted.

That following evening we went to Disneyland and had dinner with her family. I asked her father for her hand (because I was the “masculine” one) he said yes. She said yes. Once the tears stop flowing, and all the congratulations stopped, we headed to our vacation destination. In love. Happy...
