It's taken me about a week to realize why the visuals on my computer made me feel so disoriented. It wasn't to do with the general upgrade in OS; it was something else, something small, something different....

It was the fact that I was used to having the taskbar at the top of the screen, rather than the bottom. Pffffft THAT is what was throwing off my groove.

A little story: When I was much younger (let's say 14 or so), I somehow moved the taskbar from the bottom of the screen to the top. And I didn't know how I did that, and I didn't know how to fix it, and neither did anyone else in the house. So I just left it there for over a year. And by the time I knew how to move it back, I was so used to having it at the top of the screen that I just left it as it was, and continued to move it up there on every computer that has belonged to me ever since.

Oh gosh, it throws me of SO MUCH if the taskbar is in a different place! Sometimes when I help library patrons on their personal computers I have to be like "nope, you navigate, I can't handle that it's on the top/at the side".

It is AMAZING how little things like that can throw you off! It takes me a couple of minutes to adjust just going back and forth between my personal laptop and my work laptop...
