where the stars are drowning and whales ferry their vast souls through the black and seamless sea
I'm moving cross country in July-ish. I'm not taking any furniture with me- just books, clothes, other misc things. I'm thinking it would probably make more sense to ship the stuff with UPS or FedEx or something instead of getting movers, but what the hell do I know. Advice?

I do have an address. I'm also flying over, but I don't own anything breakable that I can't bring with me (laptop, external HD, few mugs). Thanks for the tips!

What's a really sticky, strong tape? I'm shipping 1"x1"x1" boxes full of books cross country and I don't want the flaps to come undone.

Oh good, the strapping tape is what I was using. It felt kind of not sticky enough, but what the hell do I know. Thanks!
