For me today has been a really awesome day.

As you know, about 10 months ago I lost my dog Annie, we had her for 13 year so she was quite old and had hearing problems and skin irritation, and we soon had to put her down as her eye became blood red and the vets suspected it was caused because of a bleed in her brain. 

Well on Tuesday, I only found out that we're fostering a dog from a nearby animal shelter/kennel because we want to give another dog a good home and a good life, so yesterday we visited the kennel, took a look at the dog and signed forms and such and went out and bought toys, mats, food bowls and a bed for her. 

So today we got her and awh she's lovely! She's an 18 month year old Lurcher called Jess, and straight after band practice today (i'll get onto that in a bit) we took her out for a walk, and she's settled in loads. She's played with her toys a bit already and wags her tails whenever she sees us, and has ate a canny lot (she's slightly underweight and we should feed her 3 times day) so that's a good sign.

Getting onto band practice now.

Once again, because my mam was unable to drop me off, I had to take the bus to the town to get to where I needed to be.

I hate taking buses, you get so many weird people on buses that sit behind you blasting their shitty rave or sit beside you and their presence annoys you. So as soon as I got on, got the closest seat to the front, I sat beside the window, put my guitar beside me so no one could sit beside me (unless of course someone needed a seat), and just plugged my headphones into my phone and listened to Oasis.

Can't say that my trip was worse than my mates though, he said all throughout his journey there was a kid that was constantly screaming on his bus and he wanted to throw it out the window haha (bit harsh?).

Anyways it was a good laugh (despite the fact £24 is a rip off for two people for 3 hours), we played lots of Oasis, Nirvana and a bit of Blink-182, and then the rest of the time we just talked about things like not being able to wait to leave school and stuff... and then had a banter about what show was better South Park or Family Guy (I say South Park is the better one).

...And then I got made fun of because i'd never actually watched Jools Holland on TV.... sorry, haha?!
