Tagged: Screenshot

Era tagged me here to post a screenshot of my desktop. (Era: I am so sorry for not doing this any sooner. Thanks, too, for the Egel. Everyone: you all deserve an Egel! Especially for keeping up with me. *LOL*)

So, here's mine:


I took this photo on New Years day 2007 in Pasadena, right after the Rose Parade. We went to J's previous office to get our stuff and it had this magnificent view of the mountains from the building's balcony. This is the same mountain range I stare at everyday driving D and A to and from school, and somehow, in that 2 years that we called that place home, I have found it very relaxing to watch the mountains. When we were getting ready to move, I planned to take pictures of exactly what I look at on the drive home, but I didn't get the chance with the ultra-busy schedule that we had. This is the next best thing I have on my computer. I wanted to take that with me for when we move, to still be able to get a glimpse of the mountains I have learned to love.

Oh, and I don't like a lot of clutter on my desktop, so the only folders I have on it would be the really temporary ones (as in I keep them there because I needed to edit the contents immediately, and then they would be deleted afterwards) and a couple that I access all the time. One folder is for the stuff I needed while househunting (which I haven't had the time to weed out and delete/keep yet), two of them are picture sets (I needed to edit the filenames before adding them to my main library -- I know, OC!), one for all my receipts from online transactions, and another for the downloads (I would rather it be in a folder on the desktop -- saves me time from searching through the file directory to locate where all my recent downloads went, and I don't really like seeing new downloads cluttering up the desktop, hence, a folder for it. And yes, I said I know already -- OC nga!)

And now I am tagging everyone!
