About Me

Hello everyone, my name is Sandra. I could start this "About Me" by waxing poetic about how wealthy I am, what a nice car I have, or how precocious my children are...however, I am neither wealthy, nor own an Aston Martin, nor have any children. That I know of, anyways. (ha) Despite my lack of the aforementioned items, I am rather happy with my current state of affairs. And I have still yet to win a Grammy. Or even flashed my lady bits in Las Vegas.Down to basics - I work and live in Seattle. Ballard is my hood of choice, and it's no longer rife with old people and Norwegians as it once was... which is really quite sad. It's mostly over-run with yuppy hipsters. And NO, I'm not one of them! I recently started working for Catalyst Marketing (www.catmarketing.com) in South Lake Union and have some REALLY awesome co-workers whom I love.I live in an apartment solo, which I also love! Well, except for the sirens at all hours. But besides that - it's super fantastic. This last year I have been able to realize my ardor of travel by journeying around Italy for two weeks with my boyfriend, Travis... and it has definitely ignited a desire to explore the world further!! Ciao!!!

My Interests

Reading ze books, Being a Happy Hour Connoisseur, Emailing copious amounts of drivel, Food - trying new restaurants/types of food/cooking/etc., Wine - my noble pursuit is to try every wine I come across, Pubs and anywhere you can feel comfortable drinking and chatting, Skiing (but also being **slow** at learning to Snowboard), Wanderlust, Wearing My Sunglasses At Night, Checking things out on Snopes.com - my biggest pet peeve: forwards filled with garbagey untruths that people swallow wholeheartedly.

I'd like to meet:
