Here's a pretty one - Plestiodon faseciatus, 5-lined skink. The blue tail indicates a juvenile. My sister had one in her bed once (scared the bejesus out of her).
I'm also disenchanted with the new Windows (I'm using 10) - it used to be so simple to open a photo and edit it (I'd like to crop this for better detail). Now, I can barely even FIND my uploaded photos, let alone edit them. I may go with a Mac for my next computer as well. Getting crankier with technology the older I get. KISS (keep it simple stupid!)
