Moving to San Diego (like 80% sure)
Yet I have never been there. Not a big deal, I plan on visiting in October/November and moving Jan 1st if I like it(from all accounts I will). I have some questions/request for suggestions.
Moving cross country. Fortunately the apartment I am living in was furnished with a bed, kitchen area washer dryer etc....so the only things I would have to move are: Computer equipment Desk/Side table (together they cost like $70?) Desk Chair ($100+) A futon Sofa TV (again cheap) CD boom box (cheap, old. sucks) My IPOD dock player Clothes (limited amount due to the fact that I plan on losing a significant amount of weight, and restocking my wardrobe to its full pimp potential) Shitload of books 2 dead hookers Really that's about it. I drive a Camry, and have decent trunk space, so I suppose I could fit most of my stuff in the car. I also have heard shipping stuff via Amtrak is cheap. Should I just ditch the cheap electronics (TV/Radio) and leave it for the next tenant? Actually the stereo is small enough to fit in the car....SO leave the TV and fit the computer in the trunk..... I plan on driving, and setting a course that hits various casino. Anyone want to go for the trip? PS- Joetall is thinking of coming with me, but who knows with the way that boy falls in love.

When I moved crosstown I got all new stuff. Ditch the cheap [censored], anything worth less then 100 bucks and is not "new" or what you really want, just give to goodwill and take the tax write off.

When I moved crosstown LOL! [/ QUOTE ] True man. The fact your even considering bringing: Desk/Side table (together they cost like $70?) Across country with you is absolutely absurd. I thought you were a baller.

What do you mean by a sh!tload of books? Two of my uncles are academics, so my vision of a sh!tload is more than can be carried in a the trunk of a car in a single trip.
Fit what you can in the trunk and screw the rest... if your books don't fit, find a cheap alternative means of shipping (like amtrak if they do that or try a bus company).

[censored] that. Buy yourself a damned one-way flight and you're not bringing anything you can't fit in your carry-on.

[img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] i wont bring em, i guess from my poor upbringing i feel guilty wasting stuff. as usual OOT clears my conscience. what ares do i need to loom at for san diegoites. also, playing poker for a living could be an issue. so if somebody has property they want to rent out, let me know. i can pay 3-4 months in advance if its an issue.
