I hate air travel, but I booked a flight today to go to Seattle to see my best friend Eric (the only other person besides Keanu that I would even consider getting on a plane for) over Thanksgiving. And I'm not even going to be a wussy girl about the flying aka "being in a big metal thing that really is too heavy to be in the sky and my god was that bourbon on the pilot's breath? and wait a minute! you didn't check my shoes for bombs, did you check everyone elses? I'm not getting on the plane until you check my shoes! Augh!"
Ahem....oh, sorry.
Because once again, Keanu is an inspiration for living my life better. He has been fearlessly flying around the world to attend Revolutions premieres. And I bet he doesn't even flinch during takeoff....unlike me.
I believe he's in Japan today.
And before that, Sydney.
Look! How cute when he waves!
Hi Baby! I miss you! Come home safe and sound soon!
I know that it's part of the job, and might even look glamorous to some, but can you imagine flying around the world in just a few days? It must get to be quite a blur after a while, between jet lag and the press, asking mostly the same questions wherever you go. And I can't even fathom what it must be like to deal with scenes like this.
It's yet another reason why I love and admire him so much.
it wahs | from inside the mind of krix at November 03, 2003 04:00 PM .And people wonder why he goes underground in between movies. SHEEEESH!
Have fun over Thanksgiving Krix. You will do fine. Who knows maybe the pilot will be cute?
If not, its a good reason to keep drinking. :)
Posted by: Tyler on November 3, 2003 04:41 PMYay! I know I've said it many times before, but I'm so happy you're going to see him! :-)
And don't worry about the flight my dear, I've send you a moral support package *she said mysteriously* ;-)
Drat, I nearly spoiled my suprise!!! *Bites tongue* Argl!!!
Posted by: Julie on November 3, 2003 05:01 PMEhm... Forget everything I said. *There is no package* :-D
Posted by: Julie on November 3, 2003 05:04 PMRemember that interveiw a long time ago when he said that if the plane goes through turbulence he starts making plans of what he would do - like find a hill and jump at the last minute and roll down the hill. Yeah baby, that would work.
I'm flying at Thanksgiving too, to Florida. But there aren't many hills...
Don't wear sneakers - it's easier for the shoe check.
Posted by: Chianti on November 3, 2003 05:08 PMHave fun krixy! Don't be afraid, it'll be alright! :D *yes I know I've exceeded my krixy-use quota, but if you'll just shhhhhh, maybe she won't notice* Uh,...nothing!
Posted by: Zen on November 3, 2003 06:00 PMKeanu is an inspiration for living my life better-I agree with you there Krix-and making that trip to Seattle on Thanksgiving is a good way to go.
I too will be traveling to Fla...you have a good trip.
that wave just damn near kills me. not that i want you to think about being killed at the same time you discuss flying. in fact, don't think about being killed at all, unless of course you contemplate the "little death" ... dammit, i'm babbling again, and all because that wave just damn near....

Hey - which article is that from Chianti. Sounds like a plan...LOL
Posted by: Keanuette on November 4, 2003 12:34 AMDude - I know exactly how you feel about flying - I have to fly to San Francisco in 2 weeks and I've been having nightmares and stuff - but you should read through this site - http://www.fearofflyinghelp.com it's a really good short online course thingy and it's free. A friend told me about it and I was incredibly sceptical - I hate self-help books and manuals and all that stuff and thought it would be useless cringworthy psychobabble, but it was cool, it's been written by a pilot and it teaches you all about how and why flying actually works and how easy it is to keep a plane in the air,all the maintenance checks and back-up systems and gives you some very comforting statistics. I felt a lot better, (although will still shit myself a bit on take-off)
Aaargh this post is too long... I sound like a salesperson ! If in doubt - have a good few drinks and pretend your sitting next to Keanu xx
Hold on...i just watched the today show...and it said it was live...correct me if i'm wrong...but wasn't he just in Japan? My god! He's is too overworked!

Posted by: Keanu_Soul on November 4, 2003 05:59 AMToday show was a taped interview with Matt. Very brief. Showed lots of Rain fight scene. Matt had on a different suit (brown) for the interview than he did during the live broadcast (grey).
Posted by: Chianti on November 4, 2003 06:27 AMKeanuette, the flying "plans" he talked about were from an article he did for CNN after he filmed The Replacements. I found it at this link: http://www.cnn.com/2000/SHOWBIZ/Movies/08/14/reeves/
Posted by: Chianti on November 4, 2003 06:50 AMeven if it was taped, keanu looked like he needed to crawl back into bed (with me) and sleep (with me) for a few more hours (with me). poor guy must be exhausted... ;)
Posted by: lori on November 4, 2003 07:15 AMlori - amen to that. "crawl back into bed (with me) and sleep (with me) for a few more hours (with me)." he could even eat breakfast and I wouldn't mind. looks like he needs a hug (always).
Posted by: rhonda on November 4, 2003 12:09 PMI'm available for hugs, cuddles, caresses, kisses, snogs, frenchies, lap dances, full blown...you know what I'm sayin'
p.s. thanks Chianti!
Posted by: Keanuette on November 4, 2003 02:14 PMI loved your rant about flying. I feel the same way...and I am on a plane about 3 times a month. It sucks. In a word - XANAX... and a bottle of wine. Funny - I may be in Seattle for Thanksgiving as well (hometown and all). Maybe we'll be sitting next to one another at a bar and not even know it!
