the seven deadly sins of christmas

LUST: so hot for each other, they can't even untangle the lights: annoying and unproductive...

GLUTTONY: not only is it addicting, but unrefined flour and sugar turned immediately into fat when not burned off...also, incredibly bad for the immune system...

ENVY: fruity, flush-hot rush, from the tip of my bright red nose to the tippy-tops of my frozen toes...need i say more?

ANGER: who hasn't been rear ended by a mad mom in a minivan on christmas eve? or been trampled by a feral pack of divorced dads grabbing for those last minute gifts off the bare shelves?...

GREED: "WAH...but brianna's getting an "IPHONE 4"..."kid, in my day we got nuts in our stockings, and we liked it!"...

PRIDE: goeth before the fall, man...so this is christmas?

SLOTH: you think i need to work on my spiritual deficiencies...hmmmm...?

go ahead...call me one of these...i've been called worse...

but amongst the commercialism and the chaos and the clutter i will not be, until all is calm...

until all is bright...

until silent night...
