Last Rambling from the Louisville Compound

Last night and this morning, I have been considering just when would be the best time to move Argo. It's been heading in the direction of "sooner is better", even if there will be no line for a few days. I want to get moved in and move on.
There has been a "situation" in the Louisville Compound over the past couple weeks. Somehow, I'm not sure exactly how, the landlady's goons^H^H^H^H^H plumbers managed to cause a leak in the water tank during the recent remodeling. It wasn't that bad, but it had been leaking water out on to the downstairs carpet last week. They supposedly fixed it last week.
Yesterday, it started leaking again. This morning, it has gotten worse. Much worse. By the time I got out of my shower, there was a good inch of water flooding the bathroom floor. The carpet all around the bathroom door (and the adjacent water tank, from which the flood originates) is soaked. While there is no immediate danger it here yet, the rate at which it has increased is enough to make me nervous. Enough to make me dread the thought of leaving Argo unattended on the old Lair's floor.
So... As of the end of this rambling, Argo is going to be shutdown -h now. I was planning to do this tonight or tomorrow anyway, but this event has sped up my schedule. I'll load Argo into Tobias and go to work (since time is short).Either during my lunch break or after work, I will transport Argo into the new Lair. I'll be without net access for a few days, but that's livable. I have plenty of other things to occupy my time in the near future anyway.
There's a high likelihood that I'll queue up some offline ramblings over the next few days. But until I get another method of net access, it will be mostly silent running around here.
I need to pack up and get going so I can load Argo and still get to work without being too egregiously late.
So, without further ado...
Sayonara, Louisville Compound. It has been good knowing thee.
