  1. So much good stuff, Holly! Thanks for taking us along for the ride ;). Looking forward to hearing about New York City and all the things. Enjoy the rest of your spring and summer as a lady in her forties, lol. Though 50 is not THAT bad...

  2. Ah, I LOVE New York! Have the BEST time! And I am here for all the Glee stuff -- Cory Monteith (I was so sad when he died and remember where I was when I heard about it -- it had a big impact on Canadians) and Lea Michelle -- the best.
