I've been meaning to read The Divine Comedy by Dante where he tells of his journey through the realms of the dead. Hell for Dante is divided into 9 levels where each of the 7 deadly sins has its own level of torture. The 7 deadly sins are luxuria (lust), gula (gluttony), avaritia (greed), acedia (sloth), ira (wrath), invidia (envy), and supervia (pride).
Wrath:
I woke up Sunday morning absolutely furious with my domestic help back home. I had a dream that she used an old toaster as a dog house for Nugget and my poor dog had to squeeze into that tiny little space and got burnt in the process. (S said that I was doing a lot of angry muttering in my sleep.) It sounds completely insane now but i promise you, that dream was so real and Nugget looked so sad and pathetic in the toaster. Broke my heart in two.
Lust:
Managed to somehow get to church on time despite my psycho ranting all morning about my maid trying to kill my dog. Was dozing off in church when this lady came up to the podium and interrupted mass. She actually interrupted when the priest was preparing for holy communion (!), accused the priest of breaking the vow of chastity (!!) and of being married!!! Imagine the uproar it caused in church. That woke S and I up real good. Major scandal in the Catholic Church (yet again) and we had front row seats! Holy moses! In the end, the other priests stepped in and managed to lead the lady out. (Damn.) S was tempted to go up to the priest after mass and ask after his wife but that prompted a slap across his head from me.

Loved how my Sunday turned out. ;)
