I thought for sure there would be a general time when it always happens so no one person could reasonably shift the entire schedule like that, but apparently it doesn't even happen in the same month every year so for all we know big celebrities get this thing pushed back all the time. "Oh you were thinking February? Nah, Drake is going on vacation for that entire month, let's just slide it back to March... maybe April, whatever."

Trent getting psyched for the Grammys because they might have free grilled cheese is the kind of vibe I can appreciate. That's exactly why I listened to Bumfuck Nowhere 1.2 billion times.

What's funny is this is totally the premise of an anxiety dream ("I just found out I have a music career and that I'm scheduled to be the opening act at the Grammies this weekend" is basically a variation on "I just realized I forgot about that one college course, I missed all the lectures, and now the final exam is this weekend") but Trent is just too chill to be fazed by it.

That college dream is one of the only recurring dreams I get. I'll suddenly remember I haven't gone to class in months and then spend the whole dream worrying about having to do the semester over. I think for me it's because I only had classes 2-3 days a week and I was always a little paranoid I'd forget to go in on one of those days.

"Bumfuck nowhere" changed my life when I first heard it. It just sums Trent's art up so goddamn well

I'm glad the Grammys are so progressive that they would reschedule the event to accommodate a doctor's appointment. I might start watching again!
