 <title>I am a very angry</title>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;I am a very angry young man.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It seems just too far away, emotionally, the fantastic weekend I&#039;ve just spent in Prague.  I came off of that weekend just dizzy with happiness, literally.  I&#039;d spent a great weekend in honour of &lt;a Href=&quot;http://www.johnsy.org/wedding/&quot;&gt;Pete&#039;s forthcoming&lt;/a&gt;, with great times, fond memories (especially of catching some decent time with a Casey or Three) and hey, even a shiny new harmonica.  Yes folks, last Monday night I was untouchable in the happiness stakes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yet here I sit typing, I&#039;ve barely even woken up, I&#039;ve bearly started my morning cuppa, and yet I&#039;m absolutely bristling with anger.  Ready to start a fight with anyone who wants to piss me off.  I&#039;m in a mood where I&#039;d like to come accross the smug git of an usher that added fuel to my fire last night, just so I could put a dent in his head.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Geezus, I think I know what life must be like for my brother!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What has put me in this foul mood?  I think it&#039;s the because I&#039;ve had a hell of a lot of excess energy recently, that was soured yesterday  by a morale-crushing performance review at work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It wasn&#039;t a bad review, mind.  If you were to look at the piece of paper that came out of it, you&#039;d tell me I ought to be quite proud.  But that&#039;s not the point.  In a way I&#039;d rather they&#039;d been angry at me.  the whole damn thing was so...lukewarm.  There was no heart in it at all.  No gratitude and no derision, just...a form.  Where&#039;s the heart?  Most insulting of all was when I tried to put forward some good ideas I have for next year, they were greeted with an attitude of, &lt;i&gt;oh, it&#039;s too much hassle.&lt;/i&gt;  That&#039;s why I&#039;m so angry.  I&#039;m fed up with such f*cking apathy.  I&#039;m p*ssed off with that smugly contented usher too.  I want to mix things up.  I want to meet someone that still thinks they&#039;re alive.  Come on England, throw down the rules and forms that tie you to your desks and show some bloody spirit!&lt;/p&gt;
