You are in good shape.

Do you have any idea whether ORC will continue to pay out 18 cents/share each month, or if the dividend will drop back down to 13.5 cents?

I am having a hard time figuring out why they would raise the dividend for two months, and then do a share offering. Any ideas? It seems to me they could have kept the dividend price where it was and avoided the share offering.
