Aw, man! I found out that my usual playground was the site of a film shoot today! With Sean Penn! And I didn’t go! I could have totally been in the background! Well, maybe not, as the movie is set in the late 70s. My hair would work, but probably not all the fleece I wear.
So when you see the movie Milk, you should know that that park is where Boobaby and I spent our formative years, and those people in the background could totally have been us. But they’re not.

I feel your pain. Last week I stood in line in the freezing cold for an hour to be one of 18,000 other people to see Barack Obama speak, only to find out the next day that his next stop after the rally was a coffee shop two miles from my house that I take Emma to at least once a week. Argh.
Drat! How cool would that have been?
I once was close enough to the prison where Martha Stewart was…that I thought about stopping by and bopping her on her nose?
That does suck that you werent able to be there. But I will watch the movie just so I can say that.
Sean Penn… Serious kudos on the ‘nearly’.
He’s probably my favourite actor.
‘Milk’? Haven’t heard of it yet. Sorry you missed it, but cool that they were so close!
