Well "you" won't actually go anywhere unless you leave. As far as your
computer though, it will think that there is no user using it and go to
the log-in screen, patiently waiting for you to log in. Note: if you do
not have auto-login enabled, then when you start the computer, you will
be taken to this same log-in screen.
You can get to the logout feature by by going to the Apple menu. It
will be the bottom choice.
