I actually wept before 7 am this morning and it wasn't because the cat woke me from a Kieferdream (which is true) or I was out of coffee (which isn't...thank gawd).
It was because I felt so warm and fuzzy and was feelin' the love.
Keanuette made me this fierce greeting before she left for her trip to this side of the pond, rawrrrrrrr.....and Zen sent me this desktop greeting with just about everything I could want for a present pictured (y'all get the halfsize version).
Nudel blogged a birthday wish and also made soymilk come out of my nose, bwahaha!. There were lovely picture posts for yours truly from Catz and Sta-cie as well, you guys rawk!
-update: Holy Crap! I need to pay better attention, Sta-cie's was WAY more than a picture! It's the GREATEST THING EVER.
Not to mention all the wonderful snugglies from all of you in the comments, including my secret internet boyfriend, James who made me think there was some hot Constantine news going on over at the hellforums, only to find that webmaster John McMahon risks sleeping on the couch for turning the whole forum into a greeting for me and my birthday buddy, Sethos!
Oh! Oh, and along with lovely warm wishes and pictures from my great friends in the various egroups I'm in, JeniLyn sent me Dr. Mercer's "Happy Birthday, Baby".....*swooon* Perfect!
THEN.....Then!
Then, I get to the office and find that a dozen freaking red roses have been delivered.
From Julie!, Nudel and Zen.
At this point I pretty much lost it. I'm still sniffling.
You guys are too much. I'm blown away.
And it's not even noon yet.
I want to say something poignant and perfect about friendship and distance and Keanu bringing such wonderful people into my life, but I think I might just take another big sniff of these flowers and dance around the office some more.
***Some other wishes that were too cool not to share...
From Irene and Daria.
And lookie what skits made! Wowsers!
Thank You!!!

Hey babe!
Because today is your ‘extra special birthday-day’ , we decided to give you a zillion reasons of why you RAWK!
Yes! It’s the longest comment ever, filled with people singing your glory, lewd sexual references – although it has to be said, most of them came from someone who’s name starts with an ‘H’ ;-), odes to your goddess-like appereance, poetical mumblings and tons and tons of LOVE!
So, are you ready for the longest comment EVER?
Wee-hee!!! Here we go!
KRIX ROCKS BECAUSE:
She’s the perfect houseguest, because she comes armed with Vanilla Stoli.
She sent me I love you to Death when I asked if she could just make me a copy.
No one can say ‘fuckity-fuck’ quite as eloquently as her
Scrumptious doodles.
She does cool audblogs
She is extremely quiet, but her smile rocks my world.
She's got a bass called Larry, and now Keanu's wondering why HE didn't come up with that name for HIS bass...
She linked my blog in the "most triumphant" section on keanuvision!
She loves Teddy Bears made out of the pubic hairs of Angels
She showed me where to find Net abbreviations, so I wouldn't feel stupid when someone wrote ROFLMAO
She knows what true friendship is about..
*Rudolph voice* She thinks I’m cuuuuuuute!
She is one of the least scariest things about Ted "Theodore" Constantine's movie. ;-)
She shows unwavering optimisium and unlimited patience with those whose opinions are the polar opposite of her own.
She risks heart palpatations from excessive Red Bull consumption to see Keanu play bass!
She calls me and waves as we pass each other going opposite directions on the 15
She is a "Sister of The Bass Clef"
She sent Lobby Neo to Amsterdam to visit my friend Julie and take the coolest pics.
She never accepts money from anyone unless she’s giving something back –and then she STILL won’t.
She calls me "lover" and "baby" and "sexy"
I call her "lover" and "baby" and "sexy"
She's nice
She's a bit of a genius
She chooses the disco-est shoes ever!
She lives in the desert, yet she knows all the rules to Ice-hockey
She had a quattro cd fix and when it didn't work for me and I found a workaround, she posted my workaround too.
Oh my fuck. She's in a band! It's her bass-a-licious duty to rawk :)
For boldly flying to Seattle, even though she was scared
For flying over to Europe ‘sometime’ in the future, even though she is scared
Sometimes her captions and krix-isms make me laugh so hard I need to run to the little girls' room...
She provides me with my main outlet of girl-on-girl making out. (Too bad my husband keeps missing it)
She posted my escargot recipe on her blog when I was just a newbie commenter
She wrote "Hi", the best fan encounter piece ever!
Her site is not only entertaining but educational as well, if there are no words to describe some K trait, she simply coins a new term
She is a compelling storyteller and accomplished in the art of photo manipulation. (She makes purty pictures!)
She's part of the KBP and you are cool once you are a part of the posse ;)
Her blog is like large quantities of chocolate with the extra caramel filling!
She gave me her webcam for no good reason other than to see nekkid pictures of my junk.
She calls me on my bitchiness and keeps me in check.
She has the coolest license plate of anyone I know
For calling me loooong distance when she thought I was dead because I didn’t comment for a while
Well positioned candy canes, 4 leaf clover, bunny ears, and hearts.
She always helps with our Keanu needs
She's a funky redhead... redheads rule, yeah!! (Whaddaya mean do I have red hair too?)
She loves Aston Kutcher ;-)
She blogs about interesting stuff ... Keanu, Keanu, Keanu!
From the first time I met her, I loved her to pieces.
She can empathize with my celebrity stalking hobby
She called me on her cell phone on the way to the Spaceland concert!
She knows how to appreciate Canadian men
She knows that a simple gift can make me smile more then somethign grand
She's a "Ziggy Piggy"
She keeps the balance between her own privacy and her fandom
She respects Keanu’s privacy even more
She keeps me entertained on a daily basis.
She created AF for us, fondly remembered every time there's a new APic with out her on-the-spot comments
I know of at least 4 babes who have a girlie-crush on her, myself included
Have you seen her in her silver hooker shoes? I mean, REALLY. Nothing but hotness, people.
She the Keanublog Originator

She plays bass…IN A BAND!
She's in a band!!! Yes!!
She plays bass also, and bass players are damn sexay.
Our Fenders Rule
Music lovers make GOOD lovers.
She's a talented artist, especially at the bass! I have faith she will bring back the WYLD STALLIONS!

She gave Rogan his ‘Queer eye for the Cam Whore’ title at Down the Local
Her cats Humphrey and Shock are undercover-agents of the catliberationfront
She makes great calendars and lets me post 'em on my site without complaint.
She's always makes herself available for people to buy her drinks.
She never lets anyone down even when she's coughing up a lung.
She has a wicked sense of humor.
Krix is one supportive person. She even got me started on blogging. I was a blurker for awhile. Then I started making walls and I sent her a few and she encouraged me to start my own blog. She even linked me when I was at modblog and that's mighty supportive!
Like most people who are REALLY COOL, she's got this strange habit of thinking that she's really a dork in disguise...
She doesn’t complain if we’re at a hockey game and I can’t figure out how to work my husband’s camera.
She let Julie! log on to her blog to write a special birthday story for me AND created the most beautiful wall EVER for the occasion. *hug*
If I were to try and tell you why Krix rocks I wouldn't be able to find the words because she rocks way too much.
She plays the hostess with the mostest awesomest gift bag when you visit her in L.A.
I slept with her the first night we met.....along with about six other people.
Unbeknownst to her, Keanu secretly lusts after her
She has guys drool over her at every whim..
She's the Blog Goddess and she Fucking Rules!
She investigated the ‘dressage’-subject further ‘for the benefit of humankind’
The audioblogs, keeping us informed on road trips. She even got camphone so we could experience the sights as well as the sounds. How sweet is that?
Her mind is at least as dirty as mine--and she doesn't mind sharing!
She burned her audblogs + Christmas-song on a CD and send it to me because she knows I don’t have sound on my computer
She's funny, sweet and can rock glitter platforms like nobody's business.
She has the best pictures of Keanu.
She takes pictures of events with Keanu or the band that we can't get to...and always makes it feel as if we were there with her.
She is consistently funny and witty, she takes the responsibility of her website seriously and has created such a warm, sweet and tightly knitted community for so many people. She is graceful under pressure, she doesn’t compromise her beliefs, she is a Keanu fan, but she also respects (and defends) his right to privacy, which is one of the most admirable traits anyone in any fandom could have. How could I not admire this woman?
She writes a blog that makes getting up in the morning worthwhile!
Her 'conversations' with Eddieshirt and Wee Neo are simply hilarious! I think she ought to offer her services to Hollywood as a dialogue writer!
She has cool contests where I won me a Revolutions Score CD!
She is a fellow survivor of a night spent with Vodka OF THE GODS!"
She sent me brotherhood of justice as a surprise.
She sends the cutest presents when you don’t expect it
She's blogged about and met one of my favorite droolworthy actors Keanu Reeves..
She’s very witty & funny, truly artistic and one of a kind
Her wit shakes K's fan base in all kinds of far-flung places of the world like Europe...
In her wisdom she created 'Ass Friday' (R.I.P.) and made me giggle and drool every Friday for an entire year...
She puts up with my off-topic comments.
She puts up with my insanely long comments, this one included ;-)
She is a kickass glass artist
She's willing to go blind watching Keanu blog posse blinkies
She accepts people for who they are inside and is one of the most unjudgemental people I know.
Her reviews of the road trips are the next best thing to being there.
That night we slept together, nothing happened sexually....but life is still
young....
She is a fan of "Free Beer and Amplification."
Of the voicemonkey and its successor, the audblog
One time I made an XTC reference down the local and she was the only one that drew attention to it! She promised me her undying love, too.
Her voice is so sexy, that she could easily work for one of ‘those’ phonelines
She's funny, creative, generous, and always decorates her page for holidays
I always have fun when I’m with her.
Neo is her co-pilot
She comments in my blog!
She has been known to wear a Roots toque around Vegas
For her intelligence and sense of humor..
Of having a thing for you-know-who
She surely does know how to pick Keanu-fan friends
She lets me call her “Krixy”.
Her incredible sense of humor can cheer me up when I'm encountering a bad day.
She explained \m/ to me!
Krix rocks because she has cool hair and a "devil
hat."
She played a wonderful host to me and Yoshi and puts up with me eating garlic fries in front of her face even though she is not eating carbs
Even when we disagree, we can still be friends when we are done.
If I was going to make a list of people that I'd like to get drunk with... she'd be on it!
What I like most about krix is her amazing sense of humour that always manages to brighten my day. Like Wee Neo's Excellent Adventures. And who can forget April [Friggin' Ashton Kutcher] Fool's Day? Sometimes it's so subtle that you don't even realize how hilarious some of her comments really are. I still crack up at the line, "If you go, tell him I said 'Hi'".
She can find anything and everything on the net and supplies it for everyone's blog reading pleasure!
She laughs at my jokes even when they’re lame. :D
She bit, sucked and swallowed all of the chocolate K-E-A-N-U that my fellow Dutchie send her, and lived to tell! And she didn't burp once...
When you’re in Vegas, she’s most definitely ‘The Hostess with the MostEST’. Corny? Yes. True? Absolutely.
She IS the Goddess of Blogs!
She makes Mac-friendly wallpapers!
She’s ‘our representative’ at the Hellblazer-forum
She reminds me more often than not that Germany is not always the center of my universe
She sent me Bill & Ted trading cards. Twice!
She’s insperational [if it wasn't for her I would not have a blog make
'doodles']
Letting Wee Neo travel on his own
Krix rocks because she refuses to buckle under the
anti-Keanu pressure at the Voices From Beyond forum.
She "Just Wahs"....
She made the best photo essay out of a near-miss encounter with Keanu. :)
For knowing what's what in Keanu land.
She’s another year older…and still keeping her legions of fans happy. They may come for the Keanu, but they stay for the Krixy.
She supports a good cause and supports charities thanks to her kind heart.
She doesn't make eye-rolling typos in her blog!
For just having the coolest Keanu blog on the net.
She's got great taste in men... Tall, Dark and Handsome... oh, and filthy rich, too.
She taught me what an audblog is
She simply IS the ruling queen of Keanugolia
She makes one hell of a sexy sim.
She awarded me a prize (Revolutions soundtrack)!
She had the coolest coffee mugs to buy at the Keanuvision store!
If you don't meet up with Krix in Vegas, then you don't SEE Vegas.
Our "Dogstar" plates Rock...
She's loyal to her fellow Keanu fans!
She always knows just what to say and when to say it.
Just because…
She's unique

If you are either a long-time, semi-regular commenter and/or good friend of Krix, but AREN'T on this list, PLEASE don't feel left out!
You're not in because you were either 'untracable', didn't check your inbox on time *slap*, have a bewildering Spamblock, don't post the correct email-adress *double slap*, got lost during the 'great hotmail-server crisis of 13 April 2004', replied too late, or were on your way to see Becky in concert!!!
I need a drink now.
Posted by: Everybody on April 14, 2004 03:27 PMoH.
mY.
fucK.
I don't know what to say. "Thank you" seems extremely inadequate.
Um, Keanu is pretty much going to have to stop the show in the middle of Evangeline to come over, take me by the hand, drag me up on stage and then go down on me to top this.
Wow....just....wow.
Posted by: krix on April 14, 2004 03:48 PMkrix!!!

It was a sweet little thing that gradually turned into something of an inmense magnitude, LOL!
And now we're intensly worried what we are going to have to think up for Netty's Bday later ;-)
*bursts out in a drunken Birthday-song*
"Flappy birfday to you-hoooo"
*huccip* :-)
Julie!, you rule. *big smoochies*
r.j.girl, we missed you. Welcome back. *waves*
Hey Krix! I know I don't post here too often, but you always make me laugh and are such a fun person and I always look forward to reading your blog! Happy Birthday!!!
Posted by: Carmen on April 14, 2004 04:46 PMhmmmm... my greeting? I blogged twice about the Big Day and krix linked to both of them. They're not too naughty..
And yes, I've shown Sta-cie's to two friends at work!
Posted by: bakednudel on April 14, 2004 04:47 PMTop Ten Reasons why Krix is a Rockin BassChick:
10. Krix' band would still rock even if it was only Krix on bass and Humphrey on his Bill & Ted Touch-Tone Phone.
9. Always has a diplomat's patience with hyper-hormoned Keanu worshipers who post sexual innuendos and type giggling symbols.
8. Keeps her life as Keanu's red-haired Vegas concubine a secret by posing as a mild-mannered, eloquent blogmistress.
7. Behind that bass - she's wearing Eddie's red underpants purchased from the Chain Reaction wardrobe sale at eBay (will deny this vehemently if confronted.)
6. Secret desire - to compare calluses with Mr. Reeves.
5. Their clandestine conversation at Spaceland? - she offered to help him set up his "equipment."
4. Sign in parking lot at Green Valley Ranch: "If the Element's rockin' don't come knockin'"
3. Has an unnatural fear of getting embarrassing drool on suede boots; will drive up to 300 miles to see a certain hot rock act as many times as it takes to help conquer this fear.
2. Did not tell the cat the evil history of stringed instruments.
1. She just is.
Posted by: Chianti on April 14, 2004 07:25 PMMy own Chianti Top Ten!!!Aieeeee!
*blush*
Underpants? I know of no underpants.
Posted by: krix on April 14, 2004 08:28 PMHappy birthday girl!!! I loves you and may your day be filled with sexy disco death heels and boys who make you giggle and blush and kisses from every one of them :)
xoxoxxooo
Posted by: gnome-girl on April 14, 2004 09:03 PMHi, Zenny (and all)!!! I've missed you, as well. I love krix and this site...it's a warm, fuzzy place peppered with luscious Keanu spiciness.
**ducking out now, so as not to intrude upon the birthday girl**
Posted by: r.j.girl on April 14, 2004 09:46 PMI had to get home to my own computer to see your stuff Nudel...that's funny!...and if the first list wasn't enough, LOL! Chianti.
"Everyone" what a great job you've done for Krix...girl you've gotta feel loved!

Posted by: Eve on April 14, 2004 11:01 PMSee Krix, you are special!
Without you we all wouldn't have met.

Let the K-(-rix&-eanu)-Love rule! \m/
Big smooch to "Everybody" and someone in particular ;-)
Chianti! Bwah! #5 and #2...LMAO!!! fortunately I don't have my coffee yet, or I'd need yet another keyboard...
Posted by: bakednudel on April 15, 2004 04:06 AMhi, Krix, and many happy returns from the London (UK) Keanu Massive. i'm reasonably new to keanuvision, and have only posted a half dozen times or so -- BUT -- just to say that it is now an integral part of my every morning, and i'm always impressed with your creativity and humour and openness. thank you and happy birthday.
also when i saw this?
"Keanu is pretty much going to have to stop the show in the middle of Evangeline to come over, take me by the hand, drag me up on stage and then go down on me"
i actually ran my mouse over it to see if there was a link to a photo file...
Posted by: bea_herenow on April 15, 2004 05:00 AM"Everybody", has anyone told you lately that you rawk?!!! *smooches*
Hmmm ... I wonder if becky takes requests, like the Happy Birthday song? And I think Henderson is a family show, so Evangeline Interrupted would have to wait for another gig. :)
Posted by: sta-cie on April 15, 2004 05:07 AMHappy Birthday Krix!!! May love and happiness come your way everyday of your life. :)
And what is it about people born on the 14th of April being huge Keanu fans? It's also my birthday, but I celebrated it yesterday.
Posted by: jeanna on April 15, 2004 05:18 AMHappy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday dear Krix!
Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday Jeanna!
Oh, man...I second & third everything everybody already said. This is a wunnerful site with lotsa friendly people & Krix brought us all together. Thanks!!!
Posted by: T on April 15, 2004 08:38 AMI'm glad you all enjoyed the moving wall! [...edited by request...] I've never made a moving wall before, so it's a little rough around the edges.
Posted by: sta-cie on April 15, 2004 12:42 PMYay! Chianti's are in! :-D
I didn't see yesterday that she posted them, so I'm sorry for FW-ing them also.
Oh well, *double* Chianti is always good :-)

Still not done! Still not done! Grrrrr *kicks Muse*.

Thank you.
