Last week a group called righteous insanity came to my media class. Basically they are a drama ministry that writes/produces/performs skits and they tour the country going to teen conventions and put on workshops and other such drama related things. Sitting in class I thought wow that is something I wouldnt mind doing. I was shocked at myself for a moment, the feeling of being interested in something, a long lost emotion, felt almost gratifying. So I went home that night and logged onto their website and read about what they were doing. Then I thought wow this is really cool. So I talked to Jon one of the members, and he told me to come talk to him after they perform tonight (Wednesday). I didn't want to get my hopes up because I barley knew anything and I was just kinda curious. So I waited a few days then tonight I went and saw them perform at chapel. Their skit called Love Stinks was very funny, and it basically sounded exactly like everything I write on this website. However one line in the skit hit me over the head like a hammer.

"He wears orange all the time, who does that?"
"A Very few select people"

Wow. I'm pretty sure thats God saying hey Darrell you should do this, I doubt he could've done it more obvious, besides just shining a light on me and telling me to go. (I stopped believing in coincidence a while ago) So after the show I met up with Jon, Mary and Jamie; the three members of the group. They took me out to eat at Ruby Tuesdays and kinda did an icebreaker interview type thing. It turns out they are in desperate need of a 4th and a guy. Which I would of course be both. They said they will be starting their major touring in January, I will conviently be out of school by then. And they love Taco bell. I dont think it gets much better than this. It kinda just all fit together for me to meet up with them perfectly. So as it stands right now they will be e-mailing me a few scripts to start working on and I'm probably going to meet up with them in January to get on the road with them. Hopefully all goes well, I havent been this motivated to something for a long while. Pray for this guys, I really want it to work.
