The MILK man strikes again

Sean Penn, that is.

I haven't even seen Milk yet, but I trust it will be brilliant, and that's enough to inspire me for now. It's next on my list.

I love to root for him. All of the brilliant dysfunctional disasters.. Beethoven, Hemingway, Poe, William Burroughs, Van Gogh... and on and on. I look at their lives and then I look at their work and I think to myself, "I have the social sophistication of a creative genius".

I may never get around to hosting a proper dinner party or keeping up with birthdays and thank you notes, but I can still become a legend.
