Ironically, we met on Valentine’s Day ❤️❤️❤️ Afrodite herself sent the arrow of love right into my heart. From the moment I laid eyes on you, I became yours.  

Still, I get butterflies every time I see you. Still, your smile makes me melt on the inside. Still, laying underneath you makes me feel like  I’m in the safest place on earth. 

You reminded me that we met on OUR birthday night at Bayou. What are the chances that we met at the same place six months later? I remember whispering to my friends that you were the most gorgeous creation I’d ever laid eyes on. 

Later that night, before we exchanged numbers, I leaned into your ear, “I’ve been watching you all night.” I managed to say it through my smile. “I know. I saw you!” You replied with the most magnificent smirk on your face. I knew then I was getting myself into some trouble – good trouble. 

And here we are, four and a half months later. Still enjoying one another’s company. Still, no title; just going with the flow. Still, allowing a natural bond to build. 

Is this was Afrodite intended? Did she foresee this? I want to ask her about the future… But I think I’ll be patient and see for myself. I heard there’s virtue in patience. 

Remember when we laid in bed for two days  straight when our city flooded. That was was the moment I knew… That was the moment I knew that you were special to me. That was the moment I knew you’d always be a part of me, in some shape or form. 

Oh, to be struck by Afrodite’s power. If everyone could only be so lucky. 

“Cheeeeeeers to the girrrrllllls weekend!” 

After working so hard for so long, I took some much needed time away from home and went to Dallas for a few days. Oh gosh, I felt so alive this week. There’s no greater feeling than seeing old, good friends from home and connecting  on levels that you can’t connect with anyone else on.

With all the changes happening in my life, as of late, it was the perfect time to get away and let my hair down. 

Friday night, my friends and I went to a party downtown at a sky-rise. It was extravagant and lush, as one would expect it to be. As soon as I entered, I ran into some friend whom I haven’t seen in years. It was like breathing a breath of fresh air. Somehow, we ended up talking about God and it was just an opportunity to share and listened. Fellowship is always great. 

The next day, we started off with a brunch downtown. Again, I ran into people I knew and some I didn’t. Some recognized me from “The Life Houston” and I got the chance to meet some interesting characters. We arrived late so everyone was walking talking about going to a pool party.  We grabbed a light bite to eat and pumped to the pool party. 

Clearly, I was dressed like a THOT lol. It was all in fun. I encountered some of the most strange people in my life while at the pool party. It was all fun. No drama, just about a thousand individuals loving and living and having fun. KeKe Wyatt performed for about 30 minutes, there were some drag performances, after I left, apparently, Big Freeda took the stage. It was hot as Haydes outside yesterday, but that didn’t stop us from enjoying ourselves. 

We finished the night at some club inside of a hotel ballroom. Again, more performances and about a couple thousand people crammed into a tight space. It was fun, but I’d honestly had enough for the day. I slept on the entire ride home. 

Today ended with a brunch/pool party. It was the perfect way to end a great weekend getaway. Currently, I’m in the backseat writing this post and keeping an eye on the driver to make sure he gets me home safely lol. 

Hope you all have a good night.

Hey, Fancy friends,

It’s been a while, *sighs* but I’m grateful for each of you who’ve been down with me. 

The last blog I posted was titled “Change is Coming” and oh, how things have changed. For some time, God had been dealing with me about a shift that He was doing in my life. Although, I knew change was coming, I didn’t know in what aspect it would be. 

I’d been praying about moving back to California. I felt as I’d become stagnant in my career, my relationships, and some other areas of my life, but if you KNOW God, then you know He is about growth, not stagnancy. 

There were some positions that had become available at my job back in LA that were aligned with my Masters degree and paid a lot more than what I was making while I was there as an instructor. I applied for them and I prayed. I didn’t pray to get the positions, but I prayed that God would place me where he wanted me to be and continue to do His work through me in whatever areas He chose. 

At the start of the year, my oastor declared that this was the year of acceleration. God would be taking us further faster. Things that would normally take lengthy amounts of time, He’ll accelerate them and cause them to happen quicker for us. He asked us to ask God for a number and to make a pledge for the amount we were to give. We didn’t have to give it then, but to make the acceleration offerin by the end of the year. He promised that God would do the exceptional. I planted my acceleration seed in February and waiting on God to do what He said he’d do. 

The week before last, I received an interview invitation for a Specialist position here in Houston. The interview was for the next day and I felt a little panicked because that was a short time to prep myself for the interview. However, I woke up at 4am the morning of the interview and prepped myself with the information I would need to know. A two hour interview turned into a job offer. It was God working. 

Now, normally to get this type of position, more years of experience would normally be required. BUT GOD did the exceptional; he accelerated me into this position. It was God making good on His promise, his convening he made with those who pledged the acceleration offering to grow His Kingdom. 

God answered two prayers with one move. One, He let me know he wanted me to stay right here on Houston to continue growing me here, and two, He propelled me into an administrative position, which I’d been asking for since the start of last year. 

In this season, I still feel that more change is coming. God is moving. To all that is reading this post, be cognizant of God’s voice. Listen when he is speaking and move when he is saying go! 

Be well my friends. 

As always, I practice transparency because I want someone to be touched or inspired by what God is doing in my life. Feel free to share with me. Shoot me an email at justin@justinjamaul.com or connect with me on any social media platform @iammrfancy. 
Love, Fancy. ❤️❤️❤️
P.S. Happy Father’s Day
