Hi Pattee!! Welcome back!
I don't remember if I actually said his name when I met him. Darn it!! It was such a blur!!!! Seems like most of his friends call him Wah Keen!

WAH!!!!!!!!! I don't understand. I keep trying to view your link but it won't let me see it because it says I'm not logged in; however, as you can see, I am posting a message to the board and it says right at the top that I **am** logged in as sigridmac. DUH!@!@ <and a few choice swear words @#^^&>
I'll keep trying. And I don't think anyone will be bored with hearing your story again, Charlotte -- envious? Yes! But not bored. Cool that you are at a peace rally. Love, S.

Charlotte, that's very cool that you met him! What were the circumstances. Make me green with envy :-)
Ciao! Sigrid |
I met him at a Peace Alliance Benefit a year and a half ago. Here's a link to the details http://www.dearjoaquin.com/mainsite/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=845&Itemid=27. I've been told it's worth the read but fix yourself a snack first! |

Hi Sigrid,
I also have had some trouble logging into the main page on DJ lately. I'm not sure where to put this because it clearly does not belong right here, but perhaps one of our moderators could move it to the proper topic?
I've copied my original post on DJ from the morning after I met Joaquin (ohhh that sounds kinda nice...Joaquin, the next morning LOL). And just in case that is not enough to read, I've added, my "not seen in ages" response to what his eyes are like in person  .
All for you my dear Sigrid because as I've said, I think the other girls all know this story by heart!!
(posted on DJ June 23, 2006)
Hi Everyone!
I am now back from my early morning walk and operating on about three hours sleep along with pure joy from yesterday evening. As promised, here is the complete story - suggest you stop, make some coffee and/or fix a snack. Short stories are not my strong suit (those who like all the details are in luck).
As June says sit down, lie down or squat down - here is the complete story......
First I must add that at the very same time this event was going on - across town one of my very favorite authors, Janet Evanovich was making an extremely rare West Coast appearance at a book signing for her latest Stephanie Plum novel. I so would have been there but had picked Joaquin instead. My cousin was at the booksigning instead (this comes up later for those that make it through to the end).
Yesterday afternoon, my husband had taken off work and was holding down the fort. I drove to Redondo Beach to meet up with Kathy. We snacked, got ready and took some pictures (which she will get to me when she gets home so I can then post them). We then headed two hours early to Beverly Hills which is only about 20 miles away but can be nearly two hours away depending on traffic (that is part of life in Los Angeles). We had agreed to meet Whatshername in front of the house so that we could all walk in together.
Kathy and I made it there just before 5:45 as planned and Whatshername made it about 5 minutes later. People were already walking in and we could hear people inside. The house belonged to Joyce Rey and was a lovely split level house. From the street you could only see the entry and the garage. Once through the entry, there was a walkway heading down to the front of the house where we signed in. We were told we could head along the front of the house to where drinks were or inside where food was.
With glass of water in hand, we headed into the house. We had mingled a bit while waiting for the water. Everyone was very, very nice. Inside the house, there were hardwood floors and two steps (this is important later) that you walked down into the living room area. Large but cozy room with lots of large windows. On the far wall you could look out to a deck like area. As we walk into the living room, Kathy and Whatshername stop and make small involuntary gasping noise. I am taking a sip of water and nearly spit it out. Just outside on the deck is you guessed it!!!!
Joaquin himself! He was casually leaning against the railing, chatting with some people. I had honestly wondered how he would look in person. He looks so different in all his movies and he can also look so different in pictures. Foolish girl that I am, had wondered if he could look as handsome in person. Very foolish girl! He looked EVEN BETTER! Attire was "casual elegant" so he was dressed in some nice dark dress pants with a dark blue button down shirt - no tie. Casual Elegant.
Great view of his profile. I'd have to say that of the various roles he's played, he looked the most like Commodus but without Roman Emperor gear, dark circles, pale skin and evil tendencies (dream come true huh Millie and Commie?). Very friendly and confident like Willie Gutierrez in the beginning of The Yards (but without the slicked back hair). Needless to say we were stunned!
Our happy trio headed out to the deck area on the far side away from Joaquin while we caught our breath. Personally, I never caught mine again. He was smoking and talking with people. Kathy and Whatshername, both reformed smokers, started smoking. We mingled a bit and kept hoping that Joaquin would be alone for just a second. Very vexing, he was never alone! He seemed very aware of people, making eye contact with people as they came out on the deck. Very animated as he spoke to people, very relaxed. Lots of smiles, laughing etc.
Not wanting to barge in on other people's conversation and feeling a bit shy, we were getting nowhere fast. My water glass was empty and we headed back for more water - mission not accomplished!
Back out front, I got some more water. As we were coming back in Dermot Mulroney (yes, Jules - Dermot Mulroney!!!!!) was just coming in. Cathy complimented has glasses, he complimented hers. Francis Fisher walked past me. It was then that I made my big entrance into the living room. Remember those two pesky steps I said would be important later? Glad if you remembered them because I guess I didn't. Yep, with living room full of people I trip, falling through the air ever so gracefully and manage at least to land without showing my undies. Maybe not too many people would have notice except for the fact that my water glass flew up as I was flying down. I ended up with water on my face and hair (none on the dress as I am that good) but the glass itself shattered! You've seen the Cocaine Blues part of WTL - shattering glass is an attention getter!
As I am very used to being a klutz, I sprung back up laughed, smiled, wiped water off my face, glasses and hair. People were very nice - water and glass was quickly cleaned up as I moved over to the kitchen area (still working on the water on my glasses and face). A nice lady came over to make sure I was alright and offered to get me more water. Amazingly she trusted me with another glass. I suggested a plastic one this time but they didn't have plastic and said I could break as many as I wanted.
While we waited for her to return (which I wasn't so sure she really would as I am clearly not trustworthy) Joaquin walked right by me and into the kitchen. Yes, it's the wrong way to think but for once I was glad that he smokes and was not in the living room when I did my trick on the steps!!! He then came out and with his back only a couple feet from my back was talking with some people. Then back outside he went! Did I say he was incrediably handsome?
After quite some time, the nice lady returned with water for me. She said that the line had been long - I still think she had been unsucessfully looking for a tupperware cup! I would have been! BTW spotted Cheryl Tiegs - she was beautiful.
We were sinking fast and wondering when and if the speaker of the night would speak. Back on the deck area they started directing people towards the living room. As I walked in I saw Heart Phoenix. A beautiful lady - lots of inner beauty shining right through. Lovely white dress. I moved towards her to say "hi". Of all the names appearing on the list, Heart was the only other person that I had wanted to speak with besides her amazing son. I started to say "hi" to her, wanting to tell her that as a mother how much I admire her. She smiled at me and then poof - Joaquin is at her side telling her it's time to go up to speak! First Joaquin encounter - as his mother moved forward Joaquin and I started to walk into the same space. I clearly, not star struck say "excuse me" like I would and "sorry" like one does and he does the same. We straighten out and off he goes with his mom.
People are gathered around the living room (80 to 100 people or so). Whatshername, Cathy and I are standing by the couches directly diagonally across from Joaquin and Heart. If he looks straight across he sees us - and if we do, we see him! A woman introduces him - the very talented, very handsome etc. Joaquin Phoenix. He smiles sweetly and says she's been misinformed. Very modest fellow (but we knew that). Have I said yet that he was beautiful? So he thanks us all for being there (oh you are soooo welcome Joaquin). Keeps it short but gives nice introduction. He then introduces Heart and then calls her mom. Very, very nice son - we should all be so lucky some day.
Heart is a fabulous speaker. Telling us how she never saw herself as being in politics but how important it is that we do our part. How proud she was when her and Joaquin went to Washington last year. We should all go next February. She was great - would love for her to adopt me but then that would be a bit strange what with Joaquin and all.
Marianne Wiliamson spoke. She was amazing! Explaining the Peace Alliance's mission to get department of Peace established in the government. Clearly explaining that this is not a new idea at all - did you know that George Washington had said that there should be a Dept. of Peace along with the War Dept (now called the more agreeable sounding Dept. of Defense)? The idea was also suggested in the 1930's. Also an important point she made was that it is not anti military. Dept of Defense has a place not unlike a surgeon. Marianne compared it to if you have cancer you look at all your options - certainly you talk to the surgeon and sometimes that is what you need but there are other options and that is what the Dept. of Peace is about. She was a brilliant speaker and well worth my donation - even if the "excuse me, sorry" incident was going to be my only true Joaquin encounter. Check out the website if you haven't - www.thepeacealliance.org.
As I am listening intently, I am also thinking (multi tasker that I am)...speaker started late. This thing ends at 8:00 and Joaquin could just leave! Btw watching him with his mother is very touching. They are often arm in arm. He drapes his arm around her. She touches his hair, he touches hers. Clearly they are both very proud of each other. But now I am very worried that I will be so disappointed in myself for missing so many chances to walk up and say "hi", that Whatshername and Kathy will be so sad (after all they didn't even have the walking into the same space thing that I had). Imagining that I would have to report back that I missed my chance to dearjoaquin friends. And finally that my son Brad was so excited about me meeting Joaquin and duh he's in Iraq and I can't even walk across a deck and say hi to a totally approachable and friendly guy! As soon as the speakers are done - I'm making a move before I have to live the rest of my life in a constant state of regret!! Plus I have already fallen down the steps, breaking a glass and making a scene which actually gives you a strange since of confidence really - after all it's not likely that even I would do anything more embarrassing!
Speaking and clapping ends, I bolt past Whatshername telling her to come now with me. Going to cut Joaquin off at the pass just in case he tries to make an escape from the deck where he had gone back to his corner. Phew, tons of people talking to him. He is not going anywhere yet. Heart is standing towards the middle of this deck area (between us and Joaquin's group) and for just a brief second she is alone. I move quick and tell her how much I admire her. She is just wonderful. Tell her that I have four kids and when they drive me nuts, I think of how she raised five and look at all she does. She says the same thing I always tell people that after a few, a few more are not much more work. She asks about my kids- how old are they? We talk of Brad in Iraq - she says she will keep him in her thoughts and asks me his name. We hug. I feel like I could talk to her all night. Very warm person. Whatshername was also talking with Heart. All the whole time Joaquin is talking to various people just a few feet away. Oh yes, how the heck will I ever tell Brad that I was too shy to talk to Joaquin??!!! Honestly I have not been this flustered by a guy since Scott Bushman in Junior High!
While talking to Heart, Dermot Mulroney (you still there Jules?), politely interupts "excuse me I just want to say goodbye to my friend" leans in and hugs Heart. He smiles at all of us. It's back to baby duty he says. Whatshername says "Oh you got a little break? (she has a very pretty accent btw)" "Yes" he says "A couple hours, a half glass of wine and it's back to the baby". Very nice man.
Another women interupts our conversation with Heart, this woman lying through her teeth about wanting only a minutes of Heart's time (took 5 at least). I am now in a strange little limbo between Heart conversation on one side and just a few feet away on the other side, Joaquin is holding court facing my direction. Brad is in Iraq and I can't even move two more feet and stick my hand out to say 'Hi nice to meet you" Failure as a mother, failure as a dearjoaquin L.A. coorespondant - doomed to a life of regret..
Have now decided that if these people continue to stand between me and Joaquin, I will go back to new friend Heart and beg her to introduce me to her son, as I am too shy, but my son admires her son. Debating this thought when....
"Pling" A sound I am familiar with as I used to own a pair of glasses that the lens would pop out at the most inconvenient times. I look down and sure enough there is a sunglass lens at my feet. I bend down to pick it up, because I really am a nice person despite klutziness and occassion inappropriate Joaquin thoughts. As I am down picking up the lens, my often overworked imagination thinks how great it would be if it was Joaquin's. As I look up, the crowd has parted and I am looking up at the most beautiful face, the most charming smile, the deepest eyes - and he is holding a pair of sunglasses with one lens!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!
Stunned by the full attention of Joaquin, um yes lens in hand. "Um, here you go" "Thank you." "Hi" I say. "Hi" he says. I think we did the "Hi" thing a couple more times because I am a dork. He looks at me like "I know you want to say something.." Oh god, I'm in Junior High land again incapable of talking to Scott Bushman who sat next to me for an entire year! I think of Brad being in Iraq. I pull it together barely - you can't underestimate the effect of being face to face with Joaquin!!! I manage to say that Oh, I would have felt so bad if I hadn't met him, that I would have let my son down because he admires him and I was working all night to overcome my shyness (pretty sure I babbled and still am hours later) talking in breathy voice that worked for Marilyn Monroe but is only squeeky scared voice on me. Tell him son is 19 and in Iraq. Joaquin smiles and says to tell him "hi for him" then...here is a real good part...says "Oh, you don't look like you could have a son that old" people do say this to me often but this is Joaquin!!!!!! Oh thank you, thank you I say..I babble happily...oh well, did I say son I meant younger brother haha...he says I really thought you'd say your son was like five...oh thank you, thank you (wanting to hug him for that) had him when I was 10 you know..(am now a hopeless case)
Whatshername steps in (saving me from myself). Cool, calm, confident, no squeeking..Introduces herself and says she is from Iceland (which people love btw) confidently shaking his hand. In a pressure situation you want Whatshername by yourside!!! Nerves of steel!
Joaquin says nice to meet you and then because he has incrediably good manners, turns and asks my name. "Pattee" I say (because my name is not really Flossie - yes, you are all shocked by this). "Nice to meet you, Pattee" and we shake hands. Very nice handshake! Nice hands!
He then talks to Whatshername about Iceland - hears it is happening, party kinda place. They are having very nice conversation, I am smiling and breathing for the first time in I can't remember when.
Joaquin and I chat more about my son calling me and being so happy about Peace Alliance - people don't understand Peace Alliance is not against military, Marines like Peace. I tell him that I've sent Brad many of his movies.
Conversation is starting to fade out. I am realizing that the moment will end - not an autograph situation or picture situation (WTL postcards and camera were in purse but not right time for this). What, what more could I have to add to this wonderful memory? A hug? Deep breathe, I lean in "Joaquin, um do you think I could have a hug?" Remember I have fallen down steps, I have nothing to lose. And he says "Oh, of course!!!!!" And gives me a great big, 100% meaning it huge warm hug. I am in heaven!!!!!!!! Did I say I just love that man??!!!!
Then it's Whatshername's turn - big hug for her and a kiss on the cheek. Have you ever thought you were just thinking something but you really said it outloud? "oh she got a kiss!" yes, that was me (cringe). Joaquin gives me the same look he gave Kelly Rippa when she pulled him down to leg wrestle. The look just before he says "Are you nuts?". But he smiled and I smiled. Oh well, no kiss. I did at least get to find his sunglass lens. Not everyone can say that!
Kathy finds us - somehow she had been separated from us, talking Peace Alliance talk and making important contacts as she is very involved in this worthy cause. She shakes hands with Joaquin and introduces herself. "Nice to meet you, Kathy" he says. We talk of sunglass lenses that pop out - I share that I had a pair like that before too. He says it happens to him all the time. Nice talking to you guys and he leaves to brighten up the evening of other people, no doubt.
People are leaving. Whathername must go out front and meet her hubby and daughter. I walk her out. What a night we had! So happy to have met her! Goodbye new friend - talk to you soon.
I get more water, walk back in, ever mindful of the steps of death. Meet up with Kathy. Anyone else to talk to? Everyone was great but starting to feel a bit done. Joaquin looks like he's wrapping it up too. We are by the front door talking to the people that had signed us in when Joaquin walks by. "Hi" he says and "Bye" to us. We leave. As we are waiting for the valet to get the car, off to the right behind some bushes is the driveway. Some guys are getting into a car that is ready to pull out. A very familiar voice says "I want to sit there" - car doors close and off the guys go. Bye Joaquin!!!
Kathy and I leave. I have become horrible navigator for her because mentally I am still on the deck area with Joaquin basking in his "you look too young compliment" and THE HUG! Life is beautiful!! Karma Gods must love me as Joaquin's sunglass lens fell at my feet (Karma Gods did not mean for me to fall down steps).
Oh and trusting you are still here with me...did you remember about the Janet Evanovich book signing? Over on the other side of town while I was soliciting hugs from a two time Academy Award nominee...my cousin was at the Janet Evanovich's book signing. Seems that Janet wasn't doing personalized inscriptions because she has carpel tunnel syndrome (bless her heart for signing at all). She made an exception though for my book - under her signature it read "Joaquin over me?!! - B*tch!" Meant in a nice way of course - Janet told my cousin she would have picked Joaquin too!
There you have it!!! Thanks for sticking with me!
BONUS....THE LONG FORGOTTEN......ANSWER TO QUESTIONS ABOUT THOSE EYES IN PERSON....
For Roselle and for Mara too, I've been trying to think of the best way to describe his eyes and surprisingly I am not finding it very easy.
In person for me, it was not so much about the color (green) but how do I tell you what it was like to look into those eyes that are so intense on the screen? Imagine all the times you've looked at pictures of those eyes, all the times you've seen them larger then life on the screen but this time THEY ARE LOOKING BACK AT YOU. Fine place to be but a bit alarming!
Okay, maybe some of you might not be so rattled but don't be so sure. Thinking of something to say ahead of time? Best of luck, because he has the most amazing eyes and when they are looking right at yours, it's hard to catch your breathe let alone speak! They are very deep eyes, he looks right at you and you don't doubt he is listening to what you are saying. Worse, you can imagine that he knows what you are thinking (and let's not think too hard about that!).
Lucky if you can't quite keep up with the eye to eye contact, you can drop your eyes just a bit and enjoy his beautiful smile. Before you drop your gaze a bit, you'll already know he is smiling because it shows up in the sparkle in his eyes.
Hmmmmmm....thinking now how I would have loved more time to get used to those eyes.......sigh......... |

Pattee!!! Oh, I laughed and cried and bit my nails over this one! So kind of you to repost the whole thing for me. I loved it! I used to be active in politics and the antiwar movement many years ago as a teenager when the Vietnam war was on (cough! Of course, I was only in the womb in those days but still kicking up a fuss!!!)
Seriously, that's really cool that the peace alliance understands the importance of supporting the troops and the mission. JP's mom also sounds like a real sweetheart and a down-to-earth person.
Laughed laughed laughed when you fell down the stairs because I could see myself doing that. I think we all could. Bit my nails when you were trying to get up the courage to talk to him all night because again I could empathize so much. Would have been me although I'm pretty outgoing but not in that kind of situation. Nerve-racking!
Rejoiced when you had your wonderful conversation with him, found his contact lens, had such a sweet talk with his mother, got the big hug (oh, green with jealousy on this end, of course!!!) And I'm really reassured by your description of him as a friendly, earnest kind of guy. Clearly, he's not stupid and he has an awareness of the mesmerizing effect that he has on other people -- namely females and I suppose gay guys -- but it's great that he still comes across as very humble. I've always liked that about him in interviews and it's really neat that he was that way in person and so nice about your son. And you got the big compliment about your age and looking younger!!! That always makes a woman feel good, especially coming from the hottest man on the planet.
So in general, your experience sounded really rewarding, after the initial frustration, and it's also beautiful that you and he share the goals of the peace alliance. That's so much greater and means so much more than any kind of crush or admiration for his acting. He will admire your dedication and principles.
Thanks again for posting this and I'm sending a big hug, which I know won't be very exciting at all. LOL. Sigrid

Hi Sigrid,
Well, we've gone pretty much off topic but I'm so glad you enjoyed my story about meeting Joaquin last year.
Sending you a big hug back! Yes, his hug was right up there in my top five hugs ever but that's not to say that hugs sent from a new friend are not exciting, too!
Glad to meet you! Thank you for all your kind words.
With love and peace,
Pattee |

 a big hug back to you, Lola! Can you believe it was well over a year ago? I'm glad you enjoyed hearing about it yet again!

That's right ....how do you pronounce his name? I think "My boyfriend, Wah-keen Fee-Nix, you know the actor?" has a very nice ring to it!  |

Well, I had a wild sex dream about JP last night that probably surpassed your hug! Remind me to go to sleep earlier tonight! And don't anybody wake me up or I'll be really grouchy 
Seriously, that would be so amazing to have had that hug from such a terrific guy. And I think we are on topic because you are a mystery woman with about three different names I can count so far! Which do you prefer? Patee??
And now I'm going completely off, off-topic by saying to any of my MS friends on here like Karen and Sab, my My Space Page had a total meltdown and I had to delete it, which is why I rapidly disappeared from your page.
Charlotte/Patee, yes, it's been a pleasure to meet you and I'm sure we'll talk again. I am still hammering away at my friend Lydia for that autograph. We'll see. Thanks to your story, I could tell her that he was active in the peace movement in LA, which is helpful because Lydia cohosts a radio show that is antiwar and anti-Bush but supportive of the troops.
BTW, how is your son doing and when do you expect him home? You must miss him and worry. Does he write often? Can you contact him by e-mail?
Enough for today. Have a great week :-) Hugs again, Sigrid (currently My Space-less)
PS I'm watching Inventing the Abbots. Have you seen it? I think that's where he fell in love with Liv Tyler. She's so sweet and innocent looking in this movie. LOL. Not much like her old MTV image.
[quote="Charlotte"]Hi Sigrid,
Yes, his hug was right up there in my top five hugs ever
