Holy cow! How fantastic for you. I'm so very proud. I'd be there but it is one hell of a drive for me.
I gotta agree with Pablo Vazquez. Do something about madonna.

Hi Langtry...
I really hope I can make it there, but I've been quite sick with pneumonia the past few weeks - yuCK! If I recover in time, I'm there!

Please get well soon, not so much because I want to meet you, but because no one should have to suffer from pneumonia. Pure misery. I hope you feel better!
