About what sandra thinks

Sandra is a writer, sometimes blogger, poet, artist, emotional disaster. She thinks far too much and sleeps far too little. Sandra lives in the Northeastern U.S. but dreams of an oceanfront home in Italy, but she would settle for a non-oceanfront home in Italy. She loves books, brutal honesty, coffee, and the color black. She hates insincerity, beer, whipped cream, and facebook. And she is uncomfortable talking about herself in the third person.

Fuck. My favorite word. But I’ve posted about that before. Anyway… I’m obsessed with this song right now. By Flora Cash. It’s about anxiety. So I guess it was written for me. I’m just kidding. I’m not that self-centered. They … Continue reading →
