Long Time No Blog

Friends,

I have not been blogging as often as I'd like, and I am sorry for the inconsistent posts. I have no other excuses aside from having a band, an arts council, and a business to run.

Tonight, I will join many other area teams in the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life in Greencastle, PA. I am on a team with my husband's mother, aunt, and several other friends and family members. It is very important to me to participate in this event. Our team usually raises around $10,000 for cancer research, so you can imagine how much money is raised by all the teams combined, just from our one local event! Though I cannot spend as much time on raising money throughout the year as I'd like - the Arts Council takes up a big portion of my volunteer time - I love being able to participate, walk the track, and see everyone out supporting a good cause. It is always fun, emotional, and well worth it!

I plan to write more often, so I'll see you back here soon!

Best Friends and Neko Case

Hi everyone!

Today, I am pleased to participate in a charity drive through ANTI- records, with whom my favorite musician, Neko Case, is associated. They are donating $5 to Best Friends Animal Society for every person who reposts on his/her blog Neko's song, "People Got A Lotta Nerve" off her new album, Middle Cyclone, out in March.

So please, have a listen for a good cause and download the song here:

More information about this campaign can be found at www.antilabelblog.com/?p=1301.

Happy listening!

Larissa

Our wonderful and silly Best Friends:
Maggie, Sadie, and Charlie (Chuck, or Chuckles)

Outtake!
