Grammy wrap up. PS- I didn’t watch the Grammys.

The Grammys have been around for 52 years, and I have maybe watched it once. I love music- not too fond of award shows. Plus, I don’t really like to hear musicians and singers SPEAK. Nine times out of ten, it ruins the whole lovely image I have of them in my head.

I was trying to stick it out, I don’t know why- maybe just to prove that I could. But all that did was bring me more pain and sorrow.
