as a general rule of thumb, always overestimate the amount of crap that you have by a factor of at least 2 whenever you make a across-state move. when i first called up the moving company, i gave a generous estimate of 2500 pounds of crap in my house that i had to move. after leaving about 250 pounds of books behind and selling about 200 more pounds worth of stuff, i ended up having about 3000 pounds of crap to haul. even after that, we still had to stuff our car to the brim...
step 1: make sure to keep the lady comfy!
step 2: i mean *really* comfy
step 3: leave enough room for said lady to move about whilst not invading your space
step 4: make sure you pack tightly enough such that crap doesn't spill over into the center console
step 5: reluctantly watch as your lady-friend snaps pictures as she strategically blocks out your face
