Good choice. Old or new BSG?

I have one of my cats on one monitor, and Star Trek on the other.

Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing

Eh... everyone was warned.

Hey! I just realized I haven't changed my wallpaper EVER on my new laptop.
That's weird, given that when I was 15, that'd be the first thing I'd change.
We become so "practical" when we grow older. Unwisely so, sometimes.

I must have had a moment of impracticality, as I just changed both of mine. Found a really cool ST pic, which I can't link for some reason, so you'll just have to take my word that it's really cool.

I used to play some Ankama games but stopped. I just haven't deleted Steam from my computer yet, and it always pops up every time I reboot.

Now I just focus on school, read books, and of course my watch hobby (hence the Blue YM in the desktop image).

this nighttime shot of San Francisco has been my wallpaper since waaaay before I moved away from SF (December 2012.) it feels like i'm looking out a window at the city. :grinlove:
that's the Bay Bridge that runs between Oakland and SF and as far as I've ever been able to tell from the landmarks the pov is from somewhere in North Beach, looking toward downtown and the Transamerica pyramid. (I didn't take the pic, I found it online years and years ago)

I've always preferred the Bay Bridge aesthetically - especially night shots or foggy days.

My wallpaper on my home laptop is one of the Windows theme thingums. I'm using the Moonlight one now.

I use a different Windows theme thingum at work -- it's trees or something. I forget what it's called.

My phone is a different story. The lock screen is a photo I took at Maroon Bells a couple of summers ago. The home screen is a photo of my feet at Ghost Ranch in New Mexico, near where Georgia O'Keeffe used to live. I swore I'd never be one of those weird people who takes pictures of her feet, too. :roll: :lol:
