And the Oscar goes too...

For the past couple of weeks Anne and I have been practicing for a skit we did this past Sunday at Church. It was about irresponsible spending and the premise was Anne and I arguing about how she was spend too much money and didn't really care. It only took about 3-4 minutes to do on the stage and was quite fun. We did it in front of each of the three services right before the sermon and then Pastor Claran tied it into the message which was about tithing and Godly spending.
What made it interesting was that Anne worked Saturday night and didn't really get any sleep that afternoon. She got 2 hours while on her shift but was pretty tired but the time we showed up at the church to do the skit in front of the 8:30am service. So by the end of the morning she had be up for most of the past 36 hours.
Regardless, the first run through was the worst as we missed a middle chunk of the play but the congegration didn't' notice. The second run through we felt was a best one was we didn't miss any line and acted (we felt) quite well. The third time went excellent as well. People laughed a lot more then we expected (we didn't think it was that funny)
We are hoping that from this we can do a few more of these type of things a year as they are quite fun and can be our contribution to the Church.
