My Anger

You Are 57% Angry

Generally, you are not an angry person.
But you're easily frustrated and enraged. You have one heck of a temper.
And because of your anger, you tend to feel resentful and even spiteful.
You already know how to quell your anger. You just need to do it more often.

When I took this quiz I already knew I would score pretty high. Most of my life I've been full of anger. It may be hard to believe, but I used to be SO much more angry & easily irritated. If I took this back in high school or the beginning of college I wouldn't be surprised if I was at least 80%! I wasn't a depressed wearing black all the time teen, there was just a fire inside of me all the time. Every little mistake someone made around me annoyed the hell out of me. I've been working on my anger for years. I think that between my great level of effort and maturity due to age, my anger is at a good place... although it is still very high.

While taking the quiz I thought about what is it that makes me angry? My primary sources of irritation are work, people, money, and traffic. This lead me to wonder what my anger level would be in the middle of a really long vacation. Not a 10 day vacation home where I spend everyday running from family to friends trying to see everyone or a 7-day vacation somewhere new where there's too much to see w/too little time, but a 1-2 month long vacation where I had a reasonable amount of money and NO obligations. I know that I wouldn't be free of getting irritated w/really slow & incompetent people in public places, but I really believe that I would become extremely laid back, at least during that time. Dave seems to think that I will get angry wherever I am no matter how good/bad the circumstances, I tend to disagree, but there really isn't any way to know the answer right now.

Anyways, that was my quick thought in long drawn out detail...

Wouldn't that be nice though?... a long vacation. no obligations. no time constraints. no money worries. just do what makes you happy!

OK. ENOUGH DAYDREAMING... BACK TO REALITY... TIME TO WORK!
