Just 2 hours ago, I was informed that things are about to change. Big change.

[Bitscape puts on the soundtrack from The Ring Trilogy of XWP season 6.]

My dad came and informed me that we have 30 days to vacate the premises. The place known as the Louisville Compound, where we have resided for over 7 years, will be a thing of the past before another month turns.

How did it happen? Exact details are uncertain, but word is that this morning, mom got into a heated argument with the landlady over the remodeling of the bathrooms, which has been in progress and falling behind schedule for the past week. This was the straw that broke the camel's back in what was an already a generally tense situation. It ended what will mean the end of this lodging situation.

I have two options. I can opt to move with my parents to whatever place they find (the selection of which will be influenced by what choice I make). Or, I can find my own place.

• This year, I shall obtain lodging of my own.

Over the course of the past couple hours, during which I chatted with the assembled crowd in irc, I have decided that I will take the latter option. Now, the pressure is on. 30 days.

There is a ton of stuff I need to do, only of few items of which are at the tip of my brain at any give time, so I shall need to assemble a list.

I'm also very tired right now, because a few minutes ago, I took a nice big dose of sedative. So I'm going to bow out of irc, hop into bed, and put off thinking more about all this until tomorrow. I thought this might be type of situation for an epic style rambling, but I guess not.

Signing off...
