Blank White Walls Are Creepy

Thanks for all the advice guys.
Things are starting to come together finally.

Except for the whole packing business - that seems to be moving very slowly. You fall into the "but I might need that next week" way of thinking and it's all downhill from there. It'll be like all night cram sessions before finals, the final days of packing.

Think H&R Block will let me deduct Vivarin next year?

Hey You Smart People

You guys are smart.
You know things.
(Is the flattery working here?)
Time to share your knowledge.
And if you don't know, feel free to ask someone who does, be it your coworkers, neighbors, parents, or favorite barista.

* Have you ever shipped a vehicle? What company do you recommend?
* Have you ever towed a vehicle behind a Uhaul?
* What's the best way to protect your belongings (and possibly the car attached to the Uhaul) while you get some sleep at a hotel?

Planning a cross-country move with 3 vehicles and only 2 drivers is proving dangerous to my sanity.

If you, or anyone within asking distance, can offer some advice, opinions, recommendations, it would be greatly appreciated!!

Three weeks exactly until the big move.
HELP!

Pretty please.

Analyze This

from an email:

I woke up around 7:00 after a typically odd dream, this one involving Mrs. Garrett and CNN and a historical map of Florida showing where all the presidents were born. And yes I'm aware presidents are not grown in Florida. That's just where their brothers go to play grown up. I'm pretty sure I was in the CNN studios where Mrs. G was pretending to bomb the fictional birthplaces of the presidents. Little explosion graphics would come up on the screen, then they'd cut to scenes of devastation, a mix of modern day dress and period pieces amidst the smoke, which makes me think it was a movie being filmed. Regardless, images of a wild-eyed Edna Garrett going on a political killing rampage made it difficult to fall back asleep, so here I am!
