About Me

I joined DU almost from the very beginning back in 2000 during that horribly dark time when the SCOTUS selected the president. If it hadn't been for DU, I don't know I would have done. This site saved my sanity. Due to changing emails and devices, this is my third user name. I was "Lindsey" for many years, then I was "nirvana555." I don't start a lot of posts but I do comment on topics that interest me. I completely stay clear of the arrogant, inappropriately opinionated people who are looking for a fight. I spend most of my time in the lounge.

I'm looking for laptop computer suggestions......

I've had a Dell for about two years and it hasn't held up very well. But in fairness to the computer, I've done some traveling for work and it's probably been through more than is normal. I'm on my computer a lot....for work and for fun. I'm on a little bit of a budget but I want something that has a good reputation. I'm probably not being specific enough but does anyone have any input? Thank You, DU'ers!

I have a question about why dt nominated Brett Kavanaugh

in the first place. Apparently, McConnell told dt to nominate ANYONE else. But he went with Kavanaugh anyway. Is it mainly because he is the person that has it on record that a President can't (or doesn't necessarily have to be) prosecuted?

Who's going to see Fahrenheit 11/9?.....

I'm planning on seeing it with friends but I DON'T want to hear bashing of the Dems (which Michael Moore does sometimes). Has anyone seen it yet or heard anything?

This is Joey's last day.....

My best friend has two furry kitties- Joey and Tommy. She started out fostering Joey (until he was adopted) in 2011. Well, needless to say, he became part of the family. For an entire year, he was so terrified of life that he stayed in her bedroom except to quickly come out to the kitchen to eat. Then, as time passed, he became more and more comfortable. He's ended up being the most loving little guy you could ever hope for. I've always called Joey and Tommy my nephews.

I spend more time over there at their place than any where else other than my home and work. I've house sat whenever she's gone out of town. We spend holidays there (with others that are extended family). I normally go over there every Sunday for an online self-actualization class we've been taking, and I feel part of the family too.

His health has always been dicey. He has upper respiratory issues and now there's kidney failure. She of course, is a wreck. He's only eight years old...

I'm thankful I believe in an afterlife.....Please keep my friend Nancy, Joey, and his brother Tommy in your thoughts. I'm on my way to pick her up b/c I want to be with her when it happens. I'm afraid once it hits me I'll feel like I've been punched.
