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.

Posted on 4 June 2018 by what sandra thinks

I have a few blogging quirks. I don’t know if they’re weird… some probably are. But I never claimed to be normal. In fact, I claim the opposite.  My post titles are all lowercase. Maybe I have an inferiority complex. … Continue reading →

Posted on 3 June 2018 by what sandra thinks

This picture really has nothing to do with this post. I just like it. I am not generally a fan of the word meh. It speaks to my distaste for trendy, popular things. But I suppose coffee is trendy and … Continue reading →

my favorite word. #socs

Posted on 3 June 2018 by what sandra thinks

This week’s prompt for ‘Stream of Consciousness Saturday‘ (no editing, etc…) is my favorite word. I know it’s already Sunday for many… it’s 1:30am here. But whatever. [If you are easily offended or don’t like foul language, you may want … Continue reading →

oh no… it’s almost here.

Posted on 2 June 2018 by what sandra thinks

I can’t remember when the tides turned. It used to be fun. I used to look forward to it. Now, it just fills me with dread and disappointment. Yeah, that’s right. I’ll be turning 29 again soon…. in 9 days… … Continue reading →
